It's top versus bottom in the Bundesliga this weekend, and it almost feels unfair on paper. Borussia Monchengladbach, still searching for their first win of the campaign, welcome high-flying Bayern Munich to Borussia-Park. The gap between both clubs is already 18 points after just seven games - a number that sums up their contrasting realities.
Bayern's midweek 4-0 win over Club Brugge, where youngster Lennart Karl made Champions League history as reported by Softfootball , only stretched their winning habit further.
Gladbach's fans have seen better days. Their side has picked up just three points D3, L4, matching their worst-ever Bundesliga start. Interim boss Eugen Polanski has not managed a win yet, and the club is now stuck in a 14-match league drought.
