Hoffenheim coach Ralf Rangnick expects Borussia Monchengladbach's attacking approach to play into his side's hands.

Hoffenheim will look for a win which could see them break into the top three.

After a slow start to the season, last year's Bundesliga revelations are now gaining momentum in their charge up the table.

"We are going to Gladbach to win," said Rangnick.

"We are always good for a goal away from home and the best wins are always the 1-0s.

"They play an attacking football which suits us down to the ground.

"It is up to us to make them show us how good their defence is."

Rangnick will name the same squad of players he had for the 3-0 win over Bochum last weekend with the same starting XI also likely to be chosen.

That includes Vedad Ibisevic, who scored 18 goals in the first 17 games of last season before tearing cruciate knee ligament damage and missing the rest of the campaign.

There is no pressure on Monchengladbach coach Michael Frontzeck either, even if he, in pre-season, was regarded as one of the favourites to be the first Bundesliga coach to lose his job this season.

Seven points from the first five games of the season are enough to keep the Foals cantering in the right direction and the fans are paying the team back with their increased support.

Almost 50,000 fans are expected to pass through the turnstiles tomorrow, which is something of which Frontzeck is proud.

"This is great and shows that our fans like the way we are playing," he said.

He will make just the one change to his team with Logan Bailly starting in goal instead of Christofer Heimeroth.
