Borussia M'gladbach vs Union Berlin: match statistics
Statistical analysis points to very even chances for both teams, which speaks in favor of a draw. Borussia M'gladbach presents poor home form with just 18% of matches won at home and a goal difference of -8, conceding an average of 1.91 goals per match. Union Berlin also does not impress in away matches, winning only 27% of games and holding an identical goal difference of -8 on the road. Both teams have similar xG indicators (M'gladbach 1.24 vs 1.74, Union 1.41 vs 1.41), suggesting comparable offensive and defensive potential. The form over the last five matches is catastrophic for the hosts (0.4 PPG), but the visitors are not shining either (0.8 PPG). Taking into account the poor disposition of both squads, M'gladbach's high percentage of draws at home (36%), and the scoring difficulties of both teams, the most probable result is a sharing of points.
