Mainz vs Monchengladbach comment: Short-lived joy

Last weekend, Monchengladbach had their best game since the start of the season when they had an impressive 3-2 victory over leaders Bayern Munich at home.

However, if you look at the actual performance of Monchengladbach, German experts say that the above victory is just a minute of ecstasy.

Should know, Monchengladbach is currently an unreliable team with only 8 wins, 5 draws and 8 losses after 21 matches played this season. Before the victory against Bayern Munich, they only won 1 draw 1 and in the previous 2 matches.

With what is being shown, NHM is not too surprised if Monchengladbach's winning streak is soon stopped in tonight's match against Mainz. Remember, Mainz is the team right behind them and is in good form winning the last 2 rounds in the German league.

One point to note, Mainz is maintaining a stable head-to-head performance against Monchengladbach when having a 4-match unbeaten run. With form, head-to-head history supporting and adding the field advantage, Mainz is a team you can trust.

- Mainz: Dahmen; Hanche-Olsen, Bell, Fernandes; Widmer, Barreiro, Stach, Caci; Lee, Ajorque, Onisiwp.

- Monchengladbach: Omlin; Lainer, Itakura, Elvedi, Bensebaini; Kramer, Kone; Hofmann, Stindl, Plea; Thuram.
