St. Pauli vs B. Monchengladbach prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2025-10-31 14:30.
[p]St. Pauli will hope to end their downward spiral in the Bundesliga when they host bottom-of-the-table Borussia Mönchengladbach on Saturday.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]St. Pauli got their season off to a flying start with seven points in three games, but Alexander Blessin’s side have since collapsed dramatically with five consecutive losses, in four of which they even failed to score. The Kiezkicker went down 2-0 away to Frankfurt last weekend in their latest reversal, while they’ve conceded an unwanted five goals in their two league home fixtures during that losing streak, scoring just once in reply. A solitary victory from their last eight Bundesliga games as hosts (D3, L4) raises further doubts over their credentials, but they’ll hope a midweek DFB-Pokal win at home to Hoffenheim is the beginning of a resurgence. [/p]
[p]Borussia Mönchengladbach extended their winless streak to 15 Bundesliga matches (D5, L10) with a 3-0 home loss to runaway leaders Bayern Munich on Saturday. Although they beat second-tier Karlsruher to reach the last 16 of the DFB-Pokal on Tuesday, no other team across Europe’s five major leagues has played as many consecutive league games without picking up three points. Adding to their woes, Gladbach have taken just one point home from three Bundesliga away fixtures so far this season and were beaten 3-1 by Union Berlin in their last match on the road to make it six defeats from their last eight away games in the league (D2).[/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]St. Pauli have won only two of their 13 home H2Hs (D4, L7) against Gladbach across all competitions, with only a late equaliser preventing another defeat for the hosts last season (D 1-1).[/p]
[p]Hot Stats and Streaks[/p]
[p]St. Pauli have not scored a second-half goal in any of their last five Bundesliga games.[/p]
