Current Form
Borussia Dortmund's record over their last 10 games: 7W 3D 0L (2.40 PPG). Last five: D D W D W. Offensively they are averaging 1.80 goals per game, with 0.70 conceded. Defensively, conceding just 0.70 per game is an exceptional defensive record. 6 clean sheets from 10 games (60%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches.
Borussia Dortmund's home record over their last 10 home games: 8W 1D 1L (2.50 PPG). They are averaging 2.20 goals per home game — a prolific scoring rate in front of their own fans. 5 clean sheets from their last 10 home games (50%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at home.
Borussia Mönchengladbach have collected 0.70 PPG across their last 10 games: 2W 1D 7L. Last five: L L W D L. They are scoring at 1.60 per game and conceding 2.50. Conceding 2.50 per game is a high rate — their defence has been exposed regularly. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%). Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.
When travelling, Borussia Mönchengladbach have posted 1W 2D 7L from their last 10 away outings — 0.50 PPG. Away from home they average 1.00 goals scored and 2.60 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.
Form favours the hosts. Borussia Dortmund's 2.40 PPG return is 1.70 points per game ahead of Borussia Mönchengladbach's 0.70 — a genuine gap in recent results that provides a statistically grounded case for backing the home side.
Head-to-Head
Across the 10 H2H matches in our data, Borussia Dortmund have had the better of this match-up — 6 wins, with Borussia Mönchengladbach managing 3 and 1 draw.
The 10 H2H matches in our data have been high-scoring — 3.9 goals per game on average — which backs the Over 2.5 market from the head-to-head side. The most recent of those, on 3 May 2026, ended Borussia Dortmund 0–1 Borussia Mönchengladbach — a Borussia Mönchengladbach win.
From a betting standpoint, the H2H data backs both Borussia Dortmund and goals — 6 wins from 10 H2H matches and an average of 3.9 goals per game give the home win and Over 2.5 combination a head-to-head case.
Trading & In-Play
Borussia Dortmund — key trading statistics (last 43 games, 22 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 82% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 90% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 50% of those occasions; they lead at the break 54% of the time; of the 7 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 57%; BTTS occurs in 41% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 59% of games (home games); they keep a clean sheet 46% of the time.
Borussia Mönchengladbach — key trading statistics (last 43 games, 22 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 68% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 57% of the time; of the 8 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 25%; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 64% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 42%; they fail to score in 35% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Borussia Dortmund 49% versus Borussia Mönchengladbach 46%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Borussia Dortmund 56% | Borussia Mönchengladbach 60%). Note also that Borussia Mönchengladbach surrender HT leads in 25% of cases while Borussia Dortmund recover from half-time deficits to draw or win 57% of the time — a dynamic that could influence in-play positioning.
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Borussia Dortmund 2.34 xG and Borussia Mönchengladbach 1.03 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Borussia Dortmund attack 0.991 / defence 0.806 | Borussia Mönchengladbach attack 0.940 / defence 1.244. League average goals — home 1.899 / away 1.358. Borussia Mönchengladbach's defence rating of 1.244 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing Borussia Dortmund's projected output up. Data: built from Borussia Dortmund's last 43 games and Borussia Mönchengladbach's last 43.
Result probabilities: Borussia Dortmund 67% | Draw 18% | Borussia Mönchengladbach 15%. Fair-value odds: Borussia Dortmund 1.50 | Draw 5.47 | Borussia Mönchengladbach 6.61. The model has a clear lean to Borussia Dortmund (67%) — a 49pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 65% | BTTS Yes probability 58% | Total xG 3.37. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 65% — a total xG of 3.37 means the expected score alone exceeds the 2.5 threshold, making the Over not just likely but structurally supported by both sides' attack/defence profiles. BTTS Yes at 58% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Picks & Verdict
On the Poisson output, Borussia Dortmund are the pick at 67% — clear model lean. Recent form and the head-to-head data both align with the Poisson read — multi-source corroboration increases confidence in this selection. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 18% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.
On the goals line, Poisson's 3.37 combined xG gives a 65% probability to Over 2.5 — strong conviction, supported by recent form (Borussia Dortmund's last 10 home games and Borussia Mönchengladbach's last 10 away games) averaging 3.3 goals per game and the H2H data averaging 3.9 goals per game across 10 H2H matches.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 58%. Form rates are neutral — both teams scored in: Borussia Dortmund 40% (last 10 home games) | Borussia Mönchengladbach 60% (last 10 away games).
