Mönchengladbach (dpa) - Soccer teacher Marco Rose hopes that Borussia Mönchengladbach will succeed in turning the trend in his hometown Leipzig.

Despite the last four Bundesliga games without a win and the 2-0 draw in the Champions League against Manchester City, the 44-year-old goes confidently into the difficult duel on Saturday (6.30 p.m. / Sky) at RB Leipzig: “Not for us In a very simple situation, we see the chance to get back on track in every next game.

Even against an opponent like Leipzig.

We have a lot to offer and are among the strongest teams in the Bundesliga, ”commented the coach on Friday.

In the game with the strongest home team in the league, Borussia have to do without Stefan Lainer: “Stefan has problems in his thigh.

It's nothing dramatic, but it won't be enough for Saturday, "said Rose.

In addition, the missions of Christoph Kramer and Jonas Hoffmann are questionable.

The fact that the eighth table can intervene in the battle for the title in a duel with the Leipzigers, who are only two points away from front-runner FC Bayern, is of only secondary importance for sports director Max Eberl.

«Of course the people of Leipzig have the opportunity to win the title.

But I don't care if we intervene in the championship fight.

I want to win the game for us. "

The return to Leipzig approaches Rose without great emotion.

«I really enjoy coming to my home country, but primarily there to work.

Therefore it will not be able to enjoy it extensively. "
