Cologne, Recent FormAfter a crushing 6-1 away loss to Borussia Dortmund, the Köln squad will need to dig deep to build confidence among their squad. They achieved 36% possession in that match and had 11 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Borussia Dortmund's tally of 12 efforts at goal, 8 of which were on target.
Manager Steffen Baumgart will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 13 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 4 goals they managed at the other end. There are concerning signs for them, having failed to score in 4 of their last 6 league games. They have produced a defensive record this season that they won't be proud of, having conceded at least 1 goal in 20 of their 25 league matches.
It's been a bad run of form of late for them, having racked up 4 losses and only a single victory in their last 6 league matches, so they'll need to turn things around if they want to start climbing the table.
B. M'gladbach, Recent FormWith a 2-2 draw in their last match against Werder Bremen, Borussia Mönchengladbach had to settle for a share of the points. They came away from that fixture with a 59% share of the possession and clocked up 21 attempts on goal with 9 on target, in comparison to Werder Bremen, who managed 8 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
Daniel Farke, their chief, will be doing some careful analysis of his defence, who have seen their goal breached 15 times in their last 6 games while somehow managing to pick up some points along the way with 6 goals scored. Away from home they have not had their troubles to seek, with at least 1 goal conceded in 11 of their last 12 away league matches this season, making points hard to come by on the road.
They've had a dismal run of form on their travels recently, losing all but 1 of their last 6 away games, a solitary win providing little consolation. So far this season, the bulk of their league games on the road have ended in disappointment, having won just 1 of their first 12 away games.
With 2 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Borussia Mönchengladbach, Jonas Hofmann will be looking to add more goals against Köln in this match.
After a good 5-2 win for Borussia Mönchengladbach in this pair's last league encounter, Köln will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
Die Fohlen will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against Köln, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 12 meetings between the two.
Florian Kainz has scored in each of Köln's last 2 league games against Borussia MG.
Köln manager Steffen Baumgart has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Sebastian Andersson (Knee), Florian Dietz (Cruciate ligament), Timo Horn (Illness), Luca Kilian (Muscle), Kristian Pedersen (Muscle), Jan Thielmann (Muscle) and Mark Uth (Groin) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Daniel Farke has a number of injury concerns in his Borussia MG squad to contend with: Tony Jantschke (Meniscus), Jan Olschowsky (Virus) and Julian Weigl (Ankle)
