Union Berlin vs Borussia Monchengladbach Prediction and Betting Tips | October 17th 2025

Round seven of the German Bundesliga gets underway as Union Berlin and Borussia Monchengladbach square off at the Stadion An der Alten Forsterei on Friday. Monchengladbach completed the double over the home side last season and will be looking to make it three wins on the trot in this fixture.

Union Berlin picked up a morale-boosting result during the international break as they secured a 3-0 victory over amateur side FSV Luckenwalde on October 8.

Steffen Baumgart’s men now turn their attention to the Bundesliga, where they have failed to win four of their five matches, losing three and claiming one draw since kicking off the season with a 2-1 home victory over Stuttgart.

Union Berlin have picked up seven points from their six league matches so far to sit 13th in the standings, but could move level with sixth-placed Koln with a win this weekend.

Like the hosts, Borussia Monchengladbach were in action during the international break as they held on to see out a 3-2 victory over 2. Bundesliga side Munster last Friday.

Head coach Eugen Polanski will hope their result can serve as a springboard for a much-needed turnaround in the Bundesliga, where Monchengladbach have failed to win their last 13 matches since March’s 1-0 victory over Leipzig.

Monchengladbach have picked up three points from a possible 18 this season to sit 17th in the Bundesliga standings, level on points with rock-bottom Heidenheim.
