Borussia Mönchengladbach vs. Borussia Dortmund preview: The Borussias lock horns once again Borussia Mönchengladbach: The penultimate fixture on Matchday 32 of the Bundesliga offered up the battle of the Borussias for us to enjoy. Mönchengladbach play host to their namesake from Dortmund, with kick-off scheduled for 17:30 CET on Sunday afternoon.
For Gladbach, they were held to a scoreless stalemate by VfL Wolfsburg. Although a win would have been the objective, the draw may yet prove crucial towards maintaining their topflight status given the gap of seven points clear of the relegation zone. Under-pressure coach Eugen Polanksi knows, with just three games remaining, every point gained is a step closer to survival.
However, that could be easier said than done, having last tasted victory against FC St. Pauli back in mid-March. Furthermore, they take on a Dortmund side keen to cling onto their runners-up spot.
Yet, it must be said that Borussia Park has been a home comfort against BVB, with three wins alongside a draw and loss in the last five times Gladbach hosted this clash. Team news: Gladbach's injury list is relatively short which will come as a relief to Eugen Polanksi. Only Tim Kleindienst (fitness) is unavailable.
