Borussia Mönchengladbach lost 1-2 at home to TSG Hoffenheim five days before this Bundesliga trip to VfB Stuttgart, and it was the conceding rather than the scoring that stood out. Again. Stuttgart have shipped two goals in total across their last six matches, so VfB Stuttgart vs Borussia M'gladbach is a meeting between a side that barely gives anything up and one that cannot stop giving.
Here are the basics before any of the football:
VfB Stuttgart vs Borussia Mönchengladbach kicks off at 19:30 BST on Friday, 23 October 2026 at the MHPArena in Stuttgart. It is a Bundesliga fixture, and it opens the weekend's German football a day before the bulk of the programme.
You can make your call on it on the VfB Stuttgart vs Borussia M'gladbach match page right up to kick-off.
No. Gladbach have won 1, drawn 1 and lost 4 of their last six, taking 4 points and conceding 14 goals while scoring 9. They lost 1-2 away to 1. FC Köln twelve days before this match, were beaten 3-4 at home by 1. FSV Mainz 05, and were taken apart 0-5 away at SC Freiburg.
The pattern is relentless. They have conceded two or more in 4 of those 6 games, kept one clean sheet, and there have been three or more goals in the match in 5 of 6. Both sides scored in 4. Gladbach games are not tight, and that is before you get to a defence being asked to hold out at the MHPArena.
Their one win in those six came away from home, and they have taken nothing from either of their last two at Borussia-Park.
