North Rhine-Westphalia gears up to host Freiburg.

The Borussia Park in Monchengladbach, North Rhine-Westphalia gears up to host Matchweek 6 of the Bundesliga, where five-time German champions and home side Borussia Monchengladbach lock horns against SC Freiburg.

Borussia Mönchengladbach are positioned at the bottom of the Bundesliga table after a series of winless runs. They have drawn two games so far and went on to suffer defeats against Eintracht Frankfurt, Werder and Stuttgart. After head coach Gerardo Seoane was sacked recently, interim coach Eugen Polanski took over.

After gaining promotion to the German top flight a decade ago to clinching a spot in the UEFA Europa League, Freiburg are going through the time of their lives. They have won two games in the Bundesliga and are unbeaten in the Europa League so far. They are led by German gaffer Julian Schuster, who has been a club legend ever since his playing days at Freiburg.
