Match facts

Borussia M'gladbach

Borussia Monchengladbach are facing Barcelona for the first time in European competition.
Borussia Monchengladbach have gone 13 home games against Spanish opposition without a clean sheet.
Against teams from Spain in European competition, Monchengladbach have managed just one victory in their last nine attempts (D2 L6); that win did come in the most recent fixture however (v Sevilla, November 2015).
Die Fohlen have taken seven points from three Bundesliga games since their 4-0 humbling at the hands of Manchester City on matchday one
It will be a special occasion for the Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen, who began his career with Gladbach.

Barcelona

Barcelona have failed to win their last three matches in Germany (D1 L2).
The Catalan side are unbeaten in their last five away games played in the Champions League group stage (W3 D2).
Barcelona recorded their biggest win in a Champions League/European Cup game in their last outing (7-0 v Celtic).
Barcelona have won the Champions League in four of the last 11 seasons. No other team has won it more than twice in the same period (Real Madrid, 2).
Neymar assisted four goals in Barcelona's opening game of the Champions League this season, the first player to manage that feat since Zlatan Ibrahimovic in November 2012 for PSG.

Predictions

Barcelona's 7-0 win over Celtic on matchday one laid down a marker to their rivals for Champions League glory and another emphatic victory looks to be likely here.

Barcelona's poor record against German sides is one sticking point, but Gladbach's team is a lot weaker on paper and an early goal for the visitors could see them rack up a big score.

Regardless, this should be an easy three points for Barcelona.

Final Score – 0 : 3
