Christian Ilzer on facing Gladbach

"We want to round off the first half of the season with a win and a good performance. It's been a very successful campaign so far and we want to get a result. Gladbach have a lot of very good players - we saw that against Augsburg. They're also very efficient from set plays. It'll be important not to let them control the game. We need to play with intensity, quality and resolve."

Eugen Polanski on facing Hoffenheim

"They're one of my former employers - I had a very enjoyable time there. They play the most high-intensity football in the league, in and out of possession. We need to be ready to give our all, in defence and attack, to keep them at bay. We know how difficult it's going to be, but we feel we have enough quality to get a result."
