Koln are on the first place in the 2. Bundesliga with the same amount of points to their credit as Hamburger at the moment. However, they have a better goal difference than Die Rothosen which consists of 24 goals scored and 16 conceded. Die Gelsbocke have been looking great overall in the league recently but especially fun to watch on the away fields. The team of Markus Anfang has been undefeated on the away fields so far and has managed to get thirteen points there. In their last three matches overall Koln lost to Schalke 04 in a penalty shootout in their 1/16-finals fixture of the DFB Pokal, drew against Heidenheim with a 1-1 score and against Holstein Kiel with the same 1-1 score. Die Geisbocke have also had a friendly fixture recently where they have beaten Waasland-Beveren with a 3-0 score.
In their last match between Hamburger and Koln at the Volksparkstadion the hosting side lost with a 0-2 score. Both teams are the leaders and favourites of the 2. Bundesliga right now. What`s really interesting is that both Die Rothosen and Die Geisbocke have been looking better on the away fields recently. It is likely that the head coaches of the teams will not risk on Monday and will try to play as safe as possible.
Prediction for the match: Under 3.0 goals scored.
