Game: KARLSRUHER vs MONCHENGLADBACH
Type: BUNDESLIGA
Date: 5 April, 2009
PREVIEW
Sitting rock-bottom in the Bundesliga after losing their last 5 consecutive matches, Karlsruher looks doomed for relegation. They failed to find the back of the net in 9 out of their last 10 matches, and this inability has been the prime candidate for their downfall. At home, they average a lowly 0.77 goals scored per match but conceded an average of 1.38 in return. Tonight's match is of outmost importance to Karlsruher as it is a 6-pointer deciding match which can make or break their season.
Monchengladbach, who sits at 16th position with a 5 point cushion over Karlsruher, will be looking for a win to widen the gap between them. They have been in rich vein of form of late, losing only twice in their last 7 matches but scoring an average of 2 goals per game in that stretch. Despite this stats, they are still porous at the back, conceding an average of 2.00 goals per match away.
KWIK STATS

THE PICK
This is not a match for the faint-hearted. It is not easy to pick a winner here as either team is capable of winning when lady luck smiles on them. OVER 2.5 GOALS is the best call for this match as both are porous in defence while past head-to-head results have seen matches between these two ending with lots of goals.
