BORUSSIA MOENCHENGLADBACH
TEAM NOTES
Coach: Host Koeppel (since April 2005) Bundesliga
Record: 6-6-8
Rank: 9th, 26 points
Last Result: 0-0 tie vs. FC Schalke 04, February 8
Streak: Tied 1 Next Game: at MSV Duisburg, February 11 Wednesday's 0-0 draw with Schalke will be greeted as a step in the right direction after two defeats for Borussia and on Saturday, Horst Koppel will be hoping for the first win of 2006 at struggling Duisburg. Defender Bo Svensson made his debut and Koppel was more than impressed. "I am very happy and you could see how well he was controlling the defence." Midfielder Thomas Broich believes the Foals can build on that result to beat another local rival at the weekend. "We need to take this performance into the Duisburg game as that is also a derby and it would be special if we could win there," he said. Indeed a win in Duisburg could delete memories of the two defeats which started the year as 'Gladbach could be back within reach of the top five. Personnel-wise, Koppel would like to name the same side, but with Marcell Jansen suspended, Filip Daems will come in on the left of defence.
