Frankfurt vs Monchengladbach Prediction 14 February 2026
🔊 Do you recall how these teams faced off in the first round in Gladbach? In the return match at Deutsche Bank Park, few expect a similar goal fest. However, we're anticipating goals, as both teams struggle defensively. After 21 rounds, it seems Frankfurt's main focus isn't European competition, but finding balance within the squad. The Eagles have gone nine matches without a win. As for Gladbach, their hopes of finishing in the top six faded after the first third of the season. The Foals' primary aim in the remaining 13 matches is to avoid the relegation zone. Both sides need goals. Will they deliver?
Head-to-Head
📊 In the first round at Borussia-Park, Eintracht played a classic match for themselves. The Eagles led 6-0, but in the second half, the Foals made a desperate comeback attempt, scoring four goals (6-4). Eintracht remain unbeaten against Borussia in their last 10 encounters across all competitions, winning six of those clashes.

⚫ In the Rhine derby, Gladbach couldn't maintain their lead against Bayer Leverkusen (1-1), who are vying for a top-four spot. After Yannick Engelhardt's early goal, Philipp Sander inadvertently deflected the ball into his own net while attempting to block an opponent's shot just before halftime.
🟢 This marked the third draw for Eugen Polanski's side in their last five matches, alongside two defeats. The "Foals" currently sit 12th in the standings, three points clear of the relegation zone.

Latest news
Eintracht Frankfurt
🎙️ Albert Riera after his debut match at the helm of Eintracht: "I don't place much importance on the final score. I'm focused on doing a lot of things right, and I'm confident that the results will follow. I saw a lot of positives. I'm pleased with the energy, passion, and dominance of my team. We knew when to attack and when to defend. Overall, we allowed very little to our opponents - that's the only way to win matches. I'm not just focused on the result. I'm concentrated on doing many good things - I'm confident that the results will come."
❌ Oscar Höjlund will miss the match due to a red card received at the end of the game against Union. Michy Batshuayi, Can Uzun, Jonathan Burkardt, Younes Ebnoutalib, and Elias Baum continue their recovery.
Borussia M'gladbach
🎙️ Eugen Polanski reflected on the match against Bayer: "We had a very strong first half, dictating the game both with and without the ball. Our positional play was excellent, the passing quality was high, and the intensity was there, leaving us with few issues. The goal we conceded was unfortunately quite unlucky; we could have gone 2-0 up instead. In the second half, Bayer adjusted their tactics, and perhaps we started to play too defensively then. However, as the second half progressed, we improved again, regaining energy and possession. Overall, I'm very pleased with the team's performance, energy, and intensity. Today, we'll be more frustrated about dropping points than pleased - and that says a lot about our play. I can't influence other teams' results. I can only aim to prepare my team as we did today, in a way that earns us points."
❌ Kevin Diks received his fifth yellow card in the last round and will miss the match in Frankfurt. Robin Hack is expected to return between March and April. Giovanni Reyna, Tim Kleindienst, and Nathan Ngumu will also be unavailable for the team.
🟨 Referee and Yellow Cards
Martin Petersen is appointed as the main referee for the match in Frankfurt. His average tally over the last 10 matches is 5.3. The Eagles average 1.6 yellow cards per game, while the Foals average 1.3. We're opting for Borussia's individual total under 2.5 yellow cards, a trend that has held for 17 consecutive matches.
⚽ Goals Prediction
Gladbach have been struggling offensively in their last five matches, failing to score more than one goal per game. Therefore, we're selecting Borussia's individual total under 1.5 goals, a scenario that has occurred in five consecutive away games and in their last five visits to Frankfurt.
🚩 Corners Prediction
Frankfurt players average 4.5 corners per match, while Gladbach players average 4.2. We're choosing Eintracht's individual total under 6.5 corners, a bet that has come through in 11 of the last 12 matches for the Eagles.
Editor's Prediction
Both teams are struggling, but historically Eintracht have the upper hand in head-to-head encounters, making them the favorites for the upcoming match. However, their defense is a major concern, so we anticipate a goal from the visitors.
Gladbach also have defensive issues, so despite Frankfurt's numerous attacking absentees, we expect them to find the net as well. Therefore, our bet is: both teams to score (yes), as has been the case in 9 of the last 10 meetings between these sides. We suspect Eintracht's unbeaten streak against the Foals will continue, but a victory seems unlikely-more likely a 1-1 draw.
