BVB\u2019s 924 wins to date are the second-highest tally, well ahead of Werder.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/05/01/bl-faktenvorschau/04-BMG-1.jpg\" data-assetref=\"04-BMG-1-1777369565873\"><\/p>\n<p><b>Record:<\/b> Borussia Dortmund have gone unbeaten against the team from the Lower Rhine for six matches (five wins, one draw). In these six matches, there have been five penalties (two for BVB, three for VfL). Only against Eintracht Frankfurt (205) have BVB fans celebrated more goals than against Borussia Mönchengladbach (197). Against Gladbach alone, BVB have won points 24 times after falling 1-0 down. And only in Stuttgart (17 away wins) have the Black &amp; Yellows won more often than at BMG (15 victories).<\/p>\n<p><b>Reverse fixture: <\/b>In front of 81,365 spectators at a sold-out SIGNAL IDUNA PARK, BVB started the match with intense focus and took an early lead through Julian Brandt\u2019s goal (10th minute). However, in the closing stages of an interesting first half, Gladbach made their mark. In a second half that was no less intense, BVB came close to making it 2-0 on several occasions, particularly through Maxi Beier in the dying minute. In the seventh minute of stoppage time, Beier made amends for his earlier missed chance.<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/05/01/bl-faktenvorschau/04-BMG-2.jpg\" data-assetref=\"04-BMG-2-1777369491506\"><\/p>\n<p><b>Last season:<\/b> In December 2024, in front of a sold-out crowd (54,042 spectators), an enthusiastic Gladbach side turned what had initially been a promising Dortmund performance into a generally error-strewn encounter, with possession shifting frequently and little structure on either side. Jamie Gittens put Dortmund ahead with a superb solo effort in the 64th minute, but their lead lasted just seven minutes: Kevin Stöger then converted a penalty to make it 1-1. Serhou Guirassy\u2019s header in stoppage time was just centimetres away from being the lucky punch.<\/p>\n<p><b>Biggest away win:<\/b> Borussia Dortmund celebrated their most emphatic of 15 away wins in Gladbach to date on 5 March 1988, when Frank Mill (26), Norbert Dickel (38) and Andreas Möller (76) scored to secure a 3-0 victory in front of just 9,600 spectators at the \u2018Bökelberg\u2019. BVB finished the season in 13th place, whilst Gladbach came seventh.<br>\n<i>Compiled by Boris Rupert<\/i><\/p>\n","exportedType":"text/html"},"id":"editable-045a05aae7","prio":{"multiLine":false,"dataType":"boolean","name":"prio","title":"Prio (Clubplatform)","multiValue":false,"value":true,"exportedType":"boolean"},"headline":{"multiLine":false,"dataType":"string","name":"headline","title":"Headline","multiValue":false,"value":"Unbeaten in six matches: the facts about the game in Gladbach","exportedType":"text/plain"},"author":{"multiLine":false,"dataType":"string","name":"author","title":"Author","multiValue":false,"exportedType":"text/plain"},"teaserType":"relatedContent","match":{"multiLine":true,"dataType":"content-fragment","name":"match","html":"<p>/content/dam/bvbweb/en/matches/football/profis/2025_2026/22/2569329_32_borussiamoenchengladbach-borussiadortmund<\/p>","title":"Related Match","multiValue":false,"value":"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/matches/football/profis/2025_2026/22/2569329_32_borussiamoenchengladbach-borussiadortmund","exportedType":"text/plain"},"externalId":{"multiLine":false,"dataType":"string","name":"externalId","title":"External ID (Clubplatform)","multiValue":false,"value":"-14497634","exportedType":"text/plain"},"displayOnHome":{"multiLine":false,"dataType":"boolean","name":"displayOnHome","title":"Display in news wall on homepage","multiValue":false,"value":true,"exportedType":"boolean"},"url":{"multiLine":false,"dataType":"string","name":"url","title":"Vanity URL (LEAVE EMPTY FOR AUTOMATIC VANITY URL.

It would be their eighth second-place finish in 14 years and their tenth runners-up spot overall.<\/p>\n<p>The team picked up three more points with a 4-0 home win against Freiburg. For Kovac, the first half was one of the best of the season: \u201cThe first half was very dominant as we played with great intensity and were very aggressive. We pressed the opposition high up the pitch, kept them away from our goal and played really good football.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Last weekend\u2019s match against Freiburg was the club\u2019s 1,000th Bundesliga home game in its history. The 1,000th away game is now approaching in Mönchengladbach, and it will also be the 2,000th Bundesliga match in the club\u2019s history. To date, BVB have celebrated 924 victories in the Bundesliga.<\/p>\n<p><b>Personnel matters<br>\n <\/b>There is good news regarding Karim Adeyemi, who took part in parts of the team training session on Thursday. Ramy Bensebaini picked up an injury against Freiburg and has not yet returned to training because of a swollen foot. Kovac does not expect the defender to be fit to play against his former club and names Luca Reggiani and Filippo Mane as his first-choice alternatives. The manager also said that things are looking better for Yan Couto and Jobe Bellingham, who had to sit out on Wednesday and Thursday due to illness. \u201cBut we think they\u2019ll be fit for the weekend,\u201d said Kovac, who also has good news regarding Felix Nmecha. \u201cFelix is on the mend, but he hasn\u2019t trained with the team yet either.\u201d He is on track, but a return to action would still be too soon. Niklas Süle and Emre Can remain sidelined.<\/p>\n<p>Special praise was reserved for the two youngsters, Samuele Inacio, who made his first start against Freiburg, and Bundesliga debutant Mathis Albert: \u201cThe two lads weren\u2019t actually in the plans for this season, but their development has shown us that not only are they giving it their all and have a lot of quality, but they are also accepted by the lads. If they carry on like this and they stay grounded, things will turn out very, very well here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img src=\"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/news/2026/04/30/vorbericht-gladbach/Adeyemi-Training.jpg\" data-assetref=\"Adeyemi-Training-1777554294797\"><\/p>\n<p><b>The opponent<br>\n <\/b>Borussia Mönchengladbach are 11th in the league, six points clear of the relegation play-off spot. The Foals have gone five games without a win. The team has won only two of their 14 fixtures since the winter break (against St. Pauli and Union Berlin). \u201cI think Gladbach still need one or two points,\u201d said Kovac. \u201cIt will be another intense match as two Borussia teams are playing against each other. It\u2019s always a bit of a battle for prestige as well. We want to win the match because we still have nine points to play for.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Black &amp; Yellows have gone six games unbeaten against Borussia from the Lower Rhine, most recently securing two home wins (2-0 in the reverse fixture and 3-2 last season). Their last victory in Mönchengladbach came in April 2024 as Marcel Sabitzer scored twice in the 2-1 win.<\/p>\n<p><b>Borussia vs. Borussia<br>\n <\/b>13 sports clubs in Germany bear the name Borussia \u2013 the Latin term for Prussia. On Sunday, the two best-known clubs sharing this name will face each other in the Bundesliga. The Borussia club from the Lower Rhine was founded on 1 August 1900 as \u201cFußball Club Borussia 1900\u201d and was given this name for patriotic reasons. Nine years later, on 19 December 1909, Borussia Dortmund was founded in the pub \u201cZum Wildschütz\u201d. The founding fathers were inspired by the Borussia Brewery, which was located on Steigerstraße.<\/p>\n<p><i>Christina Reinke<\/i><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fr9GDnR-b_Y\">To the video<\/a><\/p>\n","exportedType":"text/html"},"id":"editable-deb529a4f2","prio":{"multiLine":false,"dataType":"boolean","name":"prio","title":"Prio (Clubplatform)","multiValue":false,"value":true,"exportedType":"boolean"},"headline":{"multiLine":false,"dataType":"string","name":"headline","title":"Headline","multiValue":false,"value":"Borussia vs. Borussia: possible absences, special praise and a prestigious clash","exportedType":"text/plain"},"author":{"multiLine":false,"dataType":"string","name":"author","title":"Author","multiValue":false,"exportedType":"text/plain"},"teaserType":"relatedContent","match":{"multiLine":true,"dataType":"content-fragment","name":"match","html":"<p>/content/dam/bvbweb/en/matches/football/profis/2025_2026/22/2569329_32_borussiamoenchengladbach-borussiadortmund<\/p>","title":"Related Match","multiValue":false,"value":"/content/dam/bvbweb/en/matches/football/profis/2025_2026/22/2569329_32_borussiamoenchengladbach-borussiadortmund","exportedType":"text/plain"},"externalId":{"multiLine":false,"dataType":"string","name":"externalId","title":"External ID (Clubplatform)","multiValue":false,"value":"-792295822","exportedType":"text/plain"},"displayOnHome":{"multiLine":false,"dataType":"boolean","name":"displayOnHome","title":"Display in news wall on homepage","multiValue":false,"value":true,"exportedType":"boolean"},"url":{"multiLine":false,"dataType":"string","name":"url","title":"Vanity URL (LEAVE EMPTY FOR AUTOMATIC VANITY URL.
