Stadium	The 54,000-capacity Borussia-Park is the home to Borussia Mönchengladbach. Opened in 2004 in time for the World Cup in Germany two years later, it is one of the more modern stadiums in the Bundesliga. With two tiers, closed corners and a roof that keeps in a lot of the sound, the atmosphere is a good one and average attendances are always towards the top of the rankings as this is a huge and historical club.
Recent History	Borussia Mönchengladbach haven’t won the Bundesliga since 1976/77, but this is a club with a very proud history. With this club boasting five Bundesliga titles, all of them won in the Seventies, only five clubs can claim to have more than they do. The Seventies was their decade of dominances as they won the league five times, finished runners-up twice, won two UEFA Cups and reached the 1977 European Cup final, where they were defeated by Liverpool. In more recent times, Borussia Mönchengladbach have struggled to keep up with the likes of Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund. They’ve even spent some time in Bundesliga 2, but after both of their relegations they were able to come back up again quickly and have now been in the top flight consistently since 2008, often qualifying for the Europa League and, occasionally, for the Champions League. The academy is very important at this club and has been a main reason for their success, with players such as Marc-André ter Stegen, Mahmoud Dahoud and Amin Younes among the more high-profile graduates of recent times, while several other capable mid-table-level players have also come through.

Last season under Gerardo Seoane, Gladbach fell backwards in terms of their league position from the previous campaign. Apart from the odd good performance in the league and a cup run to the quarter-finals, there was little to cheer for the fans. The Foals won just 7 of their 34 matches and their DFB Pokal dreams were ended by third-division Saarbrucken. Seoane has been given time by the club with his first season in charge a transitional one, but you get the feeling a positive start will be needed otherwise the murmurs of discontent will soon arise. Their transfer business has been fairly positive so there are reasons to be optimistic. A proper target-man up front has been lacking since Marcus Thuram left, with Jordan not able to put in consistent performances due to injury last season, he has since returned to Union Berlin. The signing of Tim Kleindienst is a good bit of business after his successful first season in the top-flight with Heidenheim. The midfield has also gained an uplift with Stoger and Sander joining from Bochum and Holstein Kiel respectively, both were prominent figures for their sides last season. Neuhaus, Kone, Weigl and Reitz also still remain at present, so that area of the field should be set. They should also be dangerous in attack with new young talent Charles Herrmann providing competition on the wing for Robin Hack, and Alassane Plea still a top player on his day. Defence is the area of weakness that still needs to be addressed, Gladbach conceded 67 goals last season and have yet to make any additions to the position.

Target

A top-half finish and moving in the right direction will be the minimum requirement this season, anything more will be a bonus. They are capable of springing a surprise but finding consistency is their biggest hurdle to overcome.
