Stats for this game
Matchup Borussia Mönchengladbach VS Bayer Leverkusen
Leverkusen hold the stronger direction
Bayer Leverkusen have the better overall record in this fixture, but their advantage is repeatedly tested by Gladbach’s home response and the sides’ capacity to share the points. Leverkusen won 3–0 at Borussia-Park on 26 August 2023 and 3–1 at the BayArena on 18 January 2025. Gladbach’s 3–2 home victory on 23 August 2024 shows that the visitors cannot rely on status alone.
Close games shape the profile
The 0–0 draw at the BayArena on 27 January 2024 and 1–1 results at the BayArena on 21 September 2025 and Borussia-Park on 7 February 2026 reinforce the matchup’s narrow margins. Leverkusen’s advantage remains clear, yet Gladbach can use its home setting to disrupt the visitors’ rhythm and keep the scoreline within close reach. A future meeting will ask whether Leverkusen can convert its stronger direction into control or Gladbach can again make the decisive phases uncomfortable.
