Borussia Mönchengladbach vs St. Pauli Prediction: The hosts are expected to win

Borussia Mönchengladbach and St. Pauli will settle scores at the Volksparkstadion on Tuesday in continuation of the German DFB-Pokal. Borussia Monchengladbach are unbeaten in their last six games, including five wins, while St. Pauli have lost their last four games. Who will win? Below, you will find the team news, possible starting lineup, head-to-head statistics, interesting facts, betting tips, and odds.

Borussia Monchengladbach: form and statistics

Borussia Monchengladbach enter this game on the back of a goalless draw against RB Leipzig. They had defeated Karlsruher 3-1 in their last league outing, with goals from Shuto Machino, Nico Elvedi and Haris Tabakovic making the difference. The Prussians are now unbeaten in their last six games in all competitions, including five wins. They have managed to score at least three goals in four of their last six games, which is impressive and a momentum booster in games like this. They have also been impressive defensively, having kept three clean sheets in their last three games.

Borussia Monchengladbach: Team News and Injury Report

Borussia Monchengladbach will be without Fabio Cristian Chiarodia (thigh injury), Nathan Ngoumou (Achilles tendon injury), Jonas Omlin (muscle injury), Philipp Sander (muscle injury), and Jan Urbich (illness) in this game due to different problems, while Jens Castrop will face a late fitness test to play. Nevertheless, the Foals will likely go with Moritz Nicolas in the goal and Kevin Diks, Nico Elvedi, and Joe Scally might form a partnership in a 3-4-3 formation.

🔖 Borussia Monchengladbach possible starting lineup (3-4-3)

Goalkeeper — Moritz Nicolas

Defenders — Kevin Diks, Nico Elvedi, Joe Scally

Midfielders — Luca Netz, Yannik Engelhardt, Rocco Reitz, Franck Honorat

Attackers — Kevin Stöger, Haris Tabakovic, Shuto Machino

👤 Head coach: Eugen Polanski

St. Pauli: form and statistics

St. Pauli suffered a 3-1 loss to Bayern Munich in their last game, despite going 1-0 up after just six minutes. They played most of the game hoping to pick up at least a point, until they conceded a second goal in the 90+3rd minute and a third in the 90+6th minute of the clash. They had earlier conceded an equaliser just before the first half break. The Neighbourhood Kickers have not been impressive recently, and that has made them lose their last four games. Nevertheless, they defeated Hoffenheim on penalties in their last cup fixture. It is now left for them to bring in their very best to pick something out of this clash.

St. Pauli: Team News and Injury Report

David Nemeth remains sidelined due to a groin injury, while Andreas Hountondji and Mathias Pereira Lage are doubtful. Nevertheless, I expect Ben Alexander Voll to continue in goal, as in the last round, and the attacking trio of Oladapo Afolayan, Connor Metcalfe, and Andréas Hountondji to lead the attack.

🔖 St. Pauli possible starting lineup (3-4-3) 

Goalkeeper — Ben Voll

Defenders — Karol Mets, Eric Smith, Hauke Wahl

Midfielders — Louis Oppie, Joel Chima Fujita, James Sands, Arkadiusz Pyrka

Attackers — Oladapo Afolayan, Connor Metcalfe, Andréas Hountondji

Despite an impressive game against Bayern in their last outing, St. Pauli couldn’t hold on to the last moment. They have been poor, and I doubt if they can do any magic to win this game.
