Bayer Leverkusen vs Borussia Mönchengladbach – 5 December 2026, Bundesliga: H2H, form and match facts

Bayer Leverkusen host a struggling Borussia Mönchengladbach in what promises to be a clash of stark contrasts, with the home side sitting eighth on four points after a win and a draw, while the visitors languish at the bottom with three defeats and no points. Leverkusen’s modest +3 goal difference (8‑5) suggests a balanced attack, whereas Gladbach’s -9 tally (3‑12) underscores defensive frailties that could be exposed on the BayArena. Both teams have met several times in recent seasons, with Leverkusen generally holding the upper hand, and the current form further tilts the odds in favor of the hosts. A victory for Leverkusen would solidify a mid‑table push, while Gladbach will be desperate for a first point to avoid cementing their relegation‑watch status.
