FC St. Pauli vs Borussia Mönchengladbach

Borussia Mönchengladbach have scored at least one goal in all eight of their Bundesliga away games against FC St. Pauli, something they haven’t achieved against any other current top-flight side. Gladbach were 2-0 winners in this season’s reverse fixture and could now do a league double over the Kiezkicker for the second time after 1977/78.

FC St. Pauli have picked up just 12 points at home this season, their worst-ever tally after 13 home matches of a Bundesliga campaign. They did beat TSG Hoffenheim in their most recent fixture on home soil, however, the Kiezkicker are yet to win back-to-back Bundesliga home games this season (most recently in 2010/11).

Borussia Mönchengladbach are on a two-game winning run in the Bundesliga. However, they haven’t recorded three consecutive top-flight victories since June 2020 under Marco Rose. Gladbach have picked up 19 points since the start of matchday 18 – the last time they claimed that many points from their first 10 games in the second half of a Bundesliga season was in 2016/17 (also 19).

Borussia Mönchengladbach have won each of their last four Bundesliga away games, something they last managed within a single campaign 30 years ago (also 4 in 1994/95). However, the Foals are winless in their last four top-flight away games against promoted sides (D3, L1), a run they last suffered between 2009 and 2011 (L5), including a 3-1 defeat away to FC St. Pauli.

FC St. Pauli have scored just 22 Bundesliga goals this season, an ongoing negative record for the club after 27 games of a top-flight campaign. FCSP have only found the net eight times at home this term – the last promoted side to have a worse record after 13 home games was Greuther Fürth in 2012/13 (4 goals).
