BVB have defended incredibly well on the road in 2024, conceding only two goals in seven Bundesliga away matches. That has led to five victories and two draws on opposition turf. The facts preview on the match away to Borussia Mönchengladbach on Saturday.

The match facts

Mönchengladbach ended a run of 11 straight defeats against BVB courtesy of a 4-2 home victory in January 2021 – for the Foals, this was the longest losing streak against another club in their history.

The respective home team has always won in the last seven clashes.

The Black & Yellows have lost their last three Bundesliga away games in Mönchengladbach. They had previously claimed five away wins on the trot there from 2016 to 2020.

BVB have only won in Stuttgart (16 times) and Bremen (15) more than they have in Mönchengladbach (14).

BVB have taken points after being 1-0 down to VfL 23 times (10 wins, 13 draws). No team has surpassed that record in Bundesliga history (Bayern have also managed it 23 times against Stuttgart).

VfL facts

Mönchengladbach have lost only one of their last six league matches but have only picked up 31 points overall (five fewer than at the same stage of last season).

The Lower Rhine outfit have not kept a clean sheet on any of the last seven matchdays. The last time they did so was in a 0-0 draw with Darmstadt on 10 February.

VfL have picked up just 19 points at home. That’s eight fewer than a year ago.

BVB facts

Borussia Dortmund have not lost any of the last 10 league matches in which they opened the scoring at 1-0.

The Black & Yellows have won their last three Bundesliga away games and are unbeaten in 09 rounds on the road. Their last such successful run came more than 11 years ago under Jürgen Klopp. The only away defeat to date was a 2-1 loss in Stuttgart on 11/11/2023.
