Cologne Betting News

Cologne is suffering from a loss of form in the recent weeks. They failed to win in four matches in a row, although they recorded three draws and only one loss in that series. It is also interesting that Cologne scored only one goal in that period, so if their attackers fail to produce again, it is hard to believe they will snatch a point from in-form Dortmund. However, they are still in a pretty comfortable zone in the middle of the table, their only goal is to avoid the relegation, so the forthcoming match against Dortmund won’t be of utter importance for them.

Injuries and suspensions: Only Leonardo Bittencourt is injured for the forthcoming match.

Borussia Dortmund Betting News

After surprising loss against Hamburg, Borussia Dortmund won three matches in Bundesliga in a row. Eintracht, Wolfsburg and Stuttgart fell with ease, while Tuchel’s side scored ten goals in those encounters. It seems that Cologne won’t have a chance against Dortmund which is firing from all weapons. Aubameyang is fantastic this year, with 18 goals in 16 matches, while Mkhitaryan is starting to produce goods also, with two assists and a goal in the last two matches.

Injuries and suspensions: Ilkay Gundogan, Erik Durm and Nuri Sahin are injured for the forthcoming match.

Cologne vs Borussia Dortmund Match Prediction

In their last ten encounters Dortmund won eight matches, Cologne had one victory, while one match ended as a draw. As we can see, Dortmund completely dominates over their next opponents, but it is interesting that the draw and the victory for Cologne came in the previous season. If we recall how Dortmund played for the most part of it, it’s not a surprise that Cologne, as many others, managed to get four points from Dortmund, but we expect that Borussia will start another winning series.
