FC Schalke 04 vs Borussia Mönchengladbach – 19 December 2026, Bundesliga: H2H, form and match facts

Facing a desperate Borussia Mönchengladbach at the Veltins-Arena, Schalke 04 entered the fixture perched at 10th place with four points from a win, a draw and a loss, and a modest 3‑4 goal difference. The visitors, languishing at the bottom in 17th with three defeats and a 3‑12 deficit, arrived with nothing but a point to salvage. Schalke’s recent form, highlighted by a solitary victory and a hard‑earned stalemate, suggested a slight edge, while Gladbach’s winless run underscored the urgency of a turnaround. The clash therefore promised a crucial test for the home side to consolidate their mid‑table position and for the hosts to spark a revival before the season’s final stretch.
