Borussia Monchengladbach host Hoffenheim at Borussia Park in the Bundesliga on Saturday, with both sides having had similar seasons so far.
Borussia Monchengladbach are currently 10th in the league, four points behind their opponents. Adolf Hutter's side have been in inconsistent form of late, having won only two of their last five games. They will look to turn things around with a win against Hoffenheim.
Hoffenheim are currently eighth in the league, with nothing left to play for this season. Sebastian Hoeness' side have been in poor form recently and are winless in their last eight games. They will hope to bounce back with a win against Gladbach on Saturday.
Both sides only have pride left to play for this season but will look to end their respective campaigns on a strong note.
Borussia Monchengladbach vs Hoffenheim Head-to-Head
