B. Monchengladbach vs Paderborn Prediction & Betting Tips (31 October)

Borussia Mönchengladbach host SC Paderborn 07 at Borussia-Park on Saturday, 31 October 2026, in a Bundesliga match between two sides separated by five points. Gladbach remain bottom of the table with three points from seven matches, despite an encouraging 2-3 away win over Stuttgart, while Paderborn sit 13th on eight points after beating Hamburg 1-0.

Gladbach’s recent results underline their attacking promise but defensive fragility: they scored three times against Stuttgart after falling 1-2 at home to Hoffenheim. Paderborn have been more compact, collecting a useful away point in a 2-2 draw at Werder Bremen before their late victory over Hamburg.

For the 2026/2027 season, Gladbach’s likely core includes Moritz Nicolas, Kevin Diks, Philipp Sander, Fabio Chiarodia, Daiki Hashioka, Joe Scally, Zento Uno, Florian Neuhaus, Wael Mohya, Hugo Bolin and Isac Lidberg, with Nicolas-Gerrit Kühn currently sidelined. Paderborn’s squad features Nahuel Noll, Marcel Hoffmeier, Tjark Scheller, Jano ter Horst, Raphael Obermair, Santiago Castaneda, Luca Ulrich, Laurin Curda, Gabriel Vidovic, Oliver Batista Meier and Stefano Marino.

European odds price Gladbach as favourites at approximately 1.96, with the draw around 4.20 and Paderborn near 3.90. Gladbach’s home advantage and superior individual quality point toward a home win, but their defensive record gives Paderborn hope of scoring. Our prediction is B. Monchengladbach 3-1 Paderb
