Tricky task for 1. FC Köln
On Tuesday, FC will face an opponent who has done a lot recently: Bayern have been unbeaten for nine games. Bayern Munich recently had to settle for a 1-1 draw against RB Leipzig. On Saturday, Cologne defeated SV Werder Bremen 7-1.
In view of the good home statistics (5-2-0), FCB should be confident. With 34 points, the home team easily leads the Bundesliga standings. The defense of coach Julian Nagelsmann’s team has been extremely convincing so far and has only been forced 13 times. Ten wins and four draws face a bankruptcy in Bayern’s balance sheet. 13 points from the last five matches prove FC Bayern Munich’s acceptable form.
So far, things have been modest for 1. FC Köln on foreign pitches – the yield is limited to a meager six points. The guests are currently in 13th place, so they still have the opportunity to move up the table. Steffen Baumgart’s team have already conceded 29 goals. Only two teams conceded more goals. The current yield of the FC summarized: four times the maximum yield, five draws and six defeats. Cologne has only recorded a single three in the past five games.
1. FC Köln – plagued by a weak defense – have a difficult task ahead of them with FCB. Bayern have already scored 49 goals this season and are among the best offensive teams in the league.
In view of the current form and the table constellation, it would be a surprise if the winner wasn’t from FC Bayern Munich.
