FC Koln take on the visitors Bayer Leverkusen at "RheinEnergieStadion” in the round 27 of the German Bundesliga. The game will be played in Cologne on Sunday, March 18th.
At the moment FC Koln have miserable chances to save their place in the German elite division for the next season. From time to time the side is capable to achieve local success like its recent triumph over RB Leipzig on the road, but still it is not enough. At the moment “Die Geißbocke” occupy the 18th position in the Bundesliga standings with 17 points taken, being eight points away from the secure 15th place. There are eight encounters left till the end of the season and the club may cover that gap, but they must regularly pick up at least one point in five-10 tackles played, but at this point FC Koln cannot produce solid football and therefore they have no chances to survive. However, there is one positive tendency for “Die Geißbocke”: they scored goals in each fight conducted within the second lap of the Bundesliga.

Meanwhile, Bayer Leverkusen’s fans are totally satisfied with the team’s performance in this season. The club is sitting now in the UEFA Champions League zone and its top priority is to settle there. And “Die Werkself” are quite able to fulfil that task as they show rather strong football which constantly bring points to the side. It should be noted that Bayer Leverkusen demonstrate better results on the road than in front of their supporters, having lost only three out of 13 away battles. And all those failures happened in first three clashes conducted on the road and since the fifth round “Die Werkself” have not lost at away fields.
Bayer Leverkusen celebrated 2:1 victory over FC Koln in the first-lap head-to-head while last season the rivals recorded two draws. The visitors are the favourites of the upcoming game as they stay in a good competitive form now, they have higher football class and they are simply stronger than “Die Geißbocke” at this point. Thus, I presume that “Die Werkself” will prove their superiority while the hosts will only worsen their horrible situation.
Prediction for the match: Bayer Leverkusen to win.
