BERLIN (Reuters) - Borussia Moenchengladbach's unbeaten run that has seen them emerge as the toughest challengers to leaders Bayern Munich has revived memories of the all-conquering team of the 1970s ahead of Sunday's clash with Borussia Dortmund.

Gladbach, five-time champions from 1970 to 1977, have this season equalled the 17-game unbeaten run of the great 1970/71 team coached by Hennes Weisweiler to stay four points off the Bavarians along with VfL Wolfsburg, who are second on goal difference.
