Koln – Borussia Dortmund (02.02.2018)

FC Koln
He is on the last position of the Bundesliga, with 13 points scored after 20 rounds.
In the three stages that were played from the back, he managed to get more points than the whole tour. The 7 points won in this second part of the season demonstrate that the team is going through a good time and the players are confident they will be able to save themselves from relegation that seemed almost certain 3 steps ahead.
The biggest danger to the opponents’ goal is the striker Terodde who was brought this winter in Stuttgart and in three games played in the white-red shirt he managed to score 3 goals.
Midfielder Marco Hoger resisted only 24 minutes in the final stage, being changed after colliding in an air duel with Ja-Cheol Koo (right-wing midfielder at Augsburg), but German media announce him title for confrontation with Borussia .

Borussia Dortmund
It does not go through a good period, and after the 3 consecutive draws in the championship it went down to the 6th position.
Besides the weak game shown in the last stages, another bad news for the fans of the club is the departure of the Aubameyang scorer at Arsenal after five years in Dortmund.
The club’s leadership moved quickly into the transfer market and instead of the gabonian, the striker Michy Batshuayi was loaned.
The offensive of the team has consistently scored, and this season, only one move has ended without Borussia not marking.
In the middle line of the team, I expect to see him in the first 11 on Gotze, who was reserve in the last stage, and in attack, with the intention of stopping, through a victory, the series of consecutive draws, the German press announces Batshuayi with Sancho and Pulisic.
Coach Peter Stoger will not be able to rely on Yarmolenko, Philipp, Durm, Schmelzer and Guerreiro (all injured).

Direct meetings
In the tournament, Borussia Dortmund defeated the score of 5-0, but things have changed since then, and now FCC has the best shape.
3 of the last 4 meetings ended in a tie.
Cologne has only one defeat against Borussia in the last 7 straight encounters, and since returning to the first league of German football (4 seasons ago) is unbeaten in direct confrontations on its own field.

PREDICTION: Borussia Dortmund win @ 1.91
