Borussia Mönchengladbach search for their first points of the Bundesliga campaign when they welcome an out-of-sorts 1899 Hoffenheim to BORUSSIA-PARK.
Borussia Mönchengladbach have endured a slow start to the campaign, sitting 18th on zero points after five games. The Foals are seeking a swift turnaround in momentum following five straight league defeats, most recently falling 2-1 away to 1. FC Köln after a chaotic 4-3 home loss against FSV Mainz 05.
1899 Hoffenheim are also still finding their feet, occupying 17th position on three points after five games. Following a lone 2-1 victory over VfB Stuttgart, the Kraichgauer have dropped consecutive fixtures, slipping to a 3-1 defeat at SC Paderborn 07 before losing 3-2 at home to Hamburger SV last time out.
