Betting tip and prediction for this match between Athletic vs Borussia Mönchengladbach
The best prediction for Athletic vs Borussia Mönchengladbach in the German Cup is under 5.5 goals. The home side, SV Atletico Delmenhorst, will likely adopt a defensive approach, trying to limit spaces and capitalise on quick transitions, but they face a Borussia Mönchengladbach team that is clearly superior. The Bundesliga side should control the match pace, create chances and use this match to give minutes to less frequently used players. While an away victory is most likely, betting on fewer than 5.5 goals is a safer option, as Mönchengladbach is unlikely to surpass the five-goal mark even while dominating the match.

Team analysis: Athletic
The home team is set to play their first match in this edition of the DFB Pokal, aiming to capitalize on the home advantage for a favourable outcome. Intriguingly, they have been more effective as visitors, recording 8 wins, 4 draws, and 3 losses in their last 30 matches away from home, compared to 8 wins, 3 draws, and 4 losses in their home ground. In their last outing, they defeated Wilhelmshaven 4-2 away in Oberliga. In the past 10 home matches, Athletic has registered 7 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss. While they have struggled defensively, conceding goals in 7 of their last 10 games, their attack has been consistent, finding the net in each of their last 10 matches. Notably, in home games, there is a trend for high-scoring matches, as 14 of their last 16 fixtures have concluded with over 1.5 goals.
SV Atletico Delmenhorst faces Borussia M’Gladbach with clear underdog status. In their last ten home games, Atletico has averaged 1.33 goals scored and 2 conceded, highlighting their defensive frailties and challenges against stronger opponents. They typically employ compact formations like 4-4-2 or 4-2-3-1, attempting to shield the midfield while looking to exploit rapid transitions or set pieces, although this rarely suffices against technically superior teams.
Team analysis: Borussia Mönchengladbach
The visiting team is also playing their first match in this edition of the DFB Pokal, with a keen aim for a positive result. Curiously, they have been more successful away than at home, boasting a record of 8 wins, 2 draws, and 5 losses in their last 30 away matches, compared to 6 wins, 4 draws, and 5 losses in their own stadium.

In the last 10 matches as visitors, they have achieved 5 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses, consistently finding the net in 8 of those matches. There is a trend towards high-scoring games, with 23 of their last 24 away matches featuring over 1.5 goals, and 17 out of 24 surpassing 2.5 goals. Remarkably, they have only managed a comeback in 1 out of 15 games where they conceded the first goal.
Borussia M’Gladbach showcases a robust offensive performance away from home, averaging 2.71 goals scored and 1.42 conceded in their last ten games. The team often sets up in either a 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 formation, focusing on maintaining possession, quick ball movement, and applying high pressure, exploiting the flanks and any disorganisation of their opponents. M’Gladbach possesses notable competitive experience and adaptability, adept at identifying and taking advantage of defensive weaknesses, especially when opponents concentrate on closing down the midfield and rely on transitions.
