Preview: SC Sand Hosts Borussia M’gladbach in 2. Bundesliga Clash

WILLSTADT, Germany (Interstat) — A surging SC Sand side will look to solidify its standing against a streaky Borussia M’gladbach when the two meet in a 2. Bundesliga women’s football match Sunday.

The contest, scheduled for March 29, 2026, at Sportpark Willstätt, features two teams arriving with momentum from decisive victories last weekend.

Sand (8-3-4) enters on a high after a 2-1 home win over BFC Viktoria 1889 on March 22. That result is part of a strong recent run for the hosts, who have won four of their last five league matches, including a 3-1 victory at VfR Schwarz-Weiss Warbeyen on March 15. Their form at home has been particularly stout, with just one loss in their last five outings in Willstätt.

The visiting Foals (7-6-2) are also riding confidence from a major result, having stunned powerhouse Bayer Leverkusen 4-1 on the road last Sunday. That performance highlighted the team’s considerable potential, though its season has been marked by inconsistency. Preceding the Leverkusen triumph, M’gladbach suffered a 1-0 loss to lower-table Meppen 1912 II on Feb. 22 and a 3-1 defeat to Bayern Munich II on Feb. 15.

The matchup presents a contrast in rhythms. Sand has demonstrated steady, reliable scoring, netting multiple goals in six of its last seven wins. M’gladbach’s campaign has been more volatile, featuring both a 4-1 victory over Wolfsburg and a 4-1 loss to Eintracht Frankfurt II within the same month late last year.

According to Interstat’s game simulator, the data favors a continuation of Sand’s robust home form, projecting a 2-1 victory for the hosts.

A win for Sand would apply pressure in the upper tier of the 2. Bundesliga table. For M’gladbach, securing points on the road is critical to transforming its promising flashes into a sustained push for promotion.

Following this match, Sand will travel to face Meppen 1912 II on April 4. Borussia M’gladbach prepares for a home fixture against FSV Mainz 05 W on April 5.

Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. local time (1200 GMT).
