Die Roten Bullen have maintained their status as Bundesliga regulars in the Champions League places, sitting fourth and firmly in control of their own destiny having totally missed out of continental football last campaign. Their home record at the Red Bull Arena has been formidable, with the high-intensity pressing system causing problems for every visiting side. The most recent run includes victories that have kept them clear of the chasing pack and a commanding statement performance in the five-nil victory over Hoffenheim.

The Foals since the turn of the year continue to put out impressive performances in hopes of taking the best out of this campaign, having spent the bulk of its first half in the drop zone. The visitors’ come into this fixture with only runaway league leaders Bayern Munich handing them defeat over the past five games. They responded to that result with a two-nil victory over St.Pauli and continued with successive stalemates against FC Koln and Heidenheim. Away from Borussia-Park, they have been competitive but face a daunting task at a venue where even the division's best have struggled.
