Borussia Monchengladbach vs. Hertha Berlin Betting Preview – Bundesliga, June 27

After back-to-back defeats, Borussia Monchengladbach looks to win its third game in a row and confirm a Champions League spot for next season.

Coming up against Die Fohlen this weekend is a Hertha Berlin side fresh from possibly wrecking Bayer Leverkusen’s top-four aspirations. You can find out my take on this match with my Borussia Monchengladbach vs. Hertha Berlin prediction and betting pick.

The odds that the top soccer betting sites offered for a Hertha victory here might look quite tempting considering the turnaround in its season since the Bundesliga returned, and the Old Lady showed last weekend that it has not given up on the year quite yet. But Monchengladbach needs a win to make sure of that top-four finish, so the home win bet holds more interest.

After remaining in the top four for the majority of the season, it seems a little unfair that Borussia Monchengladbach is still fighting for a Champions League berth. But there are some very good teams in the league this year, and another victory is needed to make sure that Leverkusen does not sneak into fourth place.

Even a draw should be enough thanks to a superior goal difference, and that might make Marco Rose think about sending out his players with the intention not to lose rather than anything else. There are some injury problems to deal with as well, so this might not be a classic.

Hertha’s form since the league came back has been a revelation, but it could hardly have gotten any worse. New boss Bruno Labbadia came in and immediately fostered a united front and a sense of self-belief that was not evident earlier in the season. There have now been more than enough victories to ensure a comfortable mid-table finish.

Matheus Cunha has also shown the Bundesliga that RB Leipzig was perhaps a little too quick to let him go, scoring goals to win games and boost his own profile. Hertha now needs to make sure that it can keep hold of the Brazilian star over the summer and plan to make a real push for European qualification next season.

Hertha Berlin has enjoyed itself in the last few months of the season and will not completely roll over for Monchengladbach this Saturday. But if the home side does take an early lead, then don’t expect Bruno Labbadia’s side to fight too hard for the points. Monchengladbach needs the win to make sure of Champions League soccer, and I think that is exactly how this one will finish.
