The matchday 25 Bundesliga fixture between Bayern Munich and Borussia Monchengladbach will take place on 6 March at the Allianz Arena in Munich. Bayern Munich vs Borussia Monchengladbach: prediction, betting odds and statistics.
Bayern Munich
In the previous round, Bayern Munich secured a hugely important victory, beating their main title rival Borussia Dortmund 3:2, and that success can be described as pivotal in the championship race. Bayern Munich now sit confidently at the top of the Bundesliga standings with 63 points after 26 matches. Under Vincent Kompany, the team have been remarkably prolific — 88 goals scored, which is an average of 3.7 goals per game. Defensively, things have also been more than solid: just 23 goals conceded — the best record in the league. Despite a congested schedule and involvement in European competition as well as the German Cup, Bayern Munich have not slowed down. Even in such challenging circumstances, the team continue to win consistently, including against their bitter rivals from Dortmund.
- In 12 home matches of the 2025/26 season, the team have recorded 10 wins (1 draw, 1 defeat).
- In 9 of their last 10 league games, Bayern Munich have scored at least two goals.
- In the Bundesliga, the Munich side have conceded in seven straight matches.
Potential Bayern Munich Lineup (4-5-1)*
Jonas Urbig – Dayot Upamecano, Kim Min Jae, Josip Stanisic, Alphonso Davies – Luis Diaz, Jamal Musiala, Michael Olise, Joshua Kimmich, Aleksandar Pavlovic – Harry Kane.
Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer and striker Harry Kane are injured.
Borussia Monchengladbach
The home win over Union (1:0) was Borussia Monchengladbach's first in their last eight league rounds (3 draws, 4 defeats), and overall it was only the team's sixth victory of the current campaign. Crucially, all those wins have come against opponents who are mostly positioned below them in the table. When it comes to matches against teams from the upper part of the standings, Eugen Polanski's side have nothing to show so far. It is also worth adding that in their last 11 matches, the team have scored only 10 goals. What is more, Borussia Monchengladbach failed to score even in a recent match against Eintracht, who had already conceded 49 goals by that point. In the standings, the club are in 12th place.
- No more than three goals have been scored in Borussia Monchengladbach's previous seven league games.
- In their last 11 Bundesliga matches, the team have recorded three wins (2 draws, 6 defeats).
- Across their last eight matches in this competition, the club have not scored more than one goal.
Potential Borussia Monchengladbach Lineup (3-5-2)*
Moritz Nicolas – Nico Elvedi, Koki Takai, Philipp Sander – Lukas Ullrich, Rocco Reitz, Jens Castrop, Kevin Stoger, Yannik Engelhardt – Franck Honorat, Haris Tabakovic.
Midfielders Nathan Ngoumou and Robin Hack, as well as striker Tim Kleindienst, are injured.

Bayern Munich vs Borussia Monchengladbach: Match Prediction
There is no doubt that the Munich side approach this game as clear favourites, and it is hard to imagine the club from Monchengladbach being able to give them a serious fight. Especially as Vincent Kompany's team have won 12 of their last 14 home league matches. Yes, there was a slip-up against Augsburg, but a repeat of that scenario looks unlikely, particularly after the statement win over Dortmund, which has virtually removed any doubts about the title. At the same time, we cannot forget the packed schedule — a crucial Champions League match against Atalanta is coming up. In this situation, the head coach may well turn to rotation. It is unlikely the home side will go all-out and chase a rout; a win looks logical, but the question is how big it will be.
As for the visitors, in 12 away matches of the 2025/26 season they have conceded 18 goals — a perfectly respectable record for a mid-table club. In addition, the teams have already met in the league this season: despite an early red card for the Monchengladbach side, the Munich team only managed to break through their defence in the 64th minute. It is also worth noting that in the last five head-to-head meetings, the teams have not scored more than four goals between them.
Prediction: Bayern Munich to win + Under 4.5 goals
