Bundesliga News - 2020/2021 Matchday 25

Borussia Mönchengladbach’s struggles continued on Friday with a 3:1 loss to hosts FC Augsburg. Although the match remained goalless at the halftime mark, that changed early in the second half, when Augsburg’s Ruben Vargas, who had been substituted in at the halfway mark, scored the match’s first goal in the 52nd minute. The Foals tied the score in the 68th minute with a goal from Florian Neuhaus, but the rest of the match belonged to Augsburg, who picked up goals from Marco Richter in the 76th minute and Andre Hahn in the 89th minute. Gladbach are now without a win in the Bundesliga since mid-January, and a missed penalty kick by Lars Stindl was his first such miss since October 2016. Three of the league’s top teams, Bayern, Wolfsburg, and Dortmund, will have opportunities to pick up more points on Saturday when they take on clubs at the other end of the table. Wolfsburg will host Schalke, and the Wolves are on a 9-game winning streak, as they pursue a return to Champions League competition for the first time since 2015-16. The Royal Blues, on the other hand, are 9 points out of the relegation play-off spot and have just 10 games left to figure out a way to avoid being sent down. Bayern will travel north to Bremen, and Bayern’s Robert Lewandowski could on Saturday become the second-highest goalscorer of all time, as he would need just 2 goals to pass Klaus Fischer’s 267 career goals. A win for Bayern would put them 5 points clear of 2nd-place Leipzig, pending the outcome of the Leipzig-Frankfurt match on Sunday. The reverse fixture earlier in the season ended, however, in a 1:1 draw, and Bremen striker Josh Sargent has been hot in recent weeks. In the late game on Saturday, Dortmund will host Hertha Berlin, as Dortmund’s Erling Haaland hunts for his 20th Bundesliga goal of the season. Although Haaland took a knock in last weekend’s match against Bayern, he returned to play during the week in the match against Sevilla, and has managed to score 5 goals in his last 4 outings in the league. Hertha remain just above the relegation zone, 2 points ahead of Bielefield in the relegation play-off spot. Hertha have claimed just 13 of a possible 48 points since November, but did manage a last-minute win over Augsburg last weekend. Looking ahead to Sunday, Hoffenheim will travel to nearby Stuttgart in a match that will feature 3 more of the league’s best strikers in Sasa Kalajdzic, Silas Wamangituka and Andrej Kramaric. Hoffenheim’s Kramaric is 5th in the league with 14 goals, while Stuttgart’s Wamangituka and Kalajdzic are 6th and 7th with 23 goals between them.
