The home team is currently in the 18^th position of the league, with 12 points won, after 3 wins, 3 draws and 13 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Borussia M'gladbach, by (2‑1). In the last match, they won in an away match against Hamburger SV, by (0‑2). This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 2 draws and 10 losses in away matches; against 6 wins, 2 draws and 7 losses at their stadium. For the league, Köln won 7 points out of 27 possible points, after 2 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses in the last 9 home matches. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑1 (4 out of 9 matches). They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 19 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 12 times and have never been able to turn the score around. there is 1 period that stands out in the last 13 home matches for all competitions: they have scored 5 of their 14 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Cologne has made a remarkable recovery in the league table and is currently 4 points behind Bremen, who occupies the position that gives access to the relegation play-off. In the last match, the home team managed a great victory against Hamburg by 0-2. Despite playing with the support of their fans, the coach Stefan Ruthenbeck should play in 4-4-2 to benefit the low block and the long balls for the attack: Terodde is responsible for launching the panic on the opponent’s defensive line. However, we warn of the weaknesses of the home team in the aerial play, in ball possession, in finishing and in the attack-defense transition. Sehrou Guirassy is the top scorer of Cologne with 4 scored goals. For this match, the home team’s coach won’t count on Risa, Queirós and Bittencourt, players recovering from injury.

Confirmed Lineup: Timo Horn, Frederik Sørensen, Jorge Meré, Dominique Heintz, Jonas Hector, Salih Özcan, Miloš Jojić, Marco Höger, Christian Clemens, Simon Terodde, Yuya Osako.
Coach: S. Baumgart.
