Paul Higham is backing a 9/25.50 Bet Builder treble for the Friday night Bundesliga clash between Monchengladbach and Bremen.

Gladbach won last three at home

There's just two points and two places in the table between the pair, but Gladbach are odds-on shots at 10/111.91 against a Werder Bremen side that are 13/53.60 based on their woeful away record.
Werder haven't won on the road this season in the Bundesliga and have just one point to show from six away games.
Gladbach also have a great head-to-head record as they haven't lost at home to Bremen in eight years and have won seven and drawn four in their last 11 home meetings, and another positive result looks on the cards.
A nice easy start for our Bet Builder as we'll just take Gladbach for the home win at 10/111.91 - which is more to do with the woeful form of the visitors than their own home record.
It's a pretty good home record though as they've won three home Bundesliga games in a row and that's good enough going up against the joint-worst away side in the division.
The head-to-head form is also so strong that they're worthy favourites.
Alassane Plea is without doubt the main threat for Gladbach and he's been in splendid form when scoring in five of his last six Bundesliga games.
The Frenchman is odds on for 2+ shots on target, which he's achieved three times during that same six-game spell, so at 7/52.40 anytime scorer it's worth backing him to find the back of the net.
It's actually pretty hard to see anyone else scoring ahead of Plea right now so we'll ride the hot hand.
Jens Stage leads Werder Bremen with 24 fouls this season so far, which include multiple fouls games in three of his last six.
He had three fouls in his last game and even as many as five a couple of weeks ago as part of seven games with two or more fouls.
So it's no surprise to see him as a 4/71.57 shot for 2+ fouls at Borussia Park on Friday night.
