Reason for Bayern Munich vs FC Koln Predictions
Bayern Munich has been their regular dominant self this season. After a somewhat disappointing return to league action, where they drew 1-1 to RB Leipzig, Bayern extended their undefeated streak to nine games, including seven wins and two draws. They are in pole position in the league standings and are five points clear of the chasing pack, which includes Frankfurt, Union Berlin, and Freiburg, who are all tied on 30 points each. The hosts have been excellent at the Allianz this season, winning five and drawing two of their seven home matches, and if they avoid defeat in this one, they will extend their unbeaten run at home to 15 matches, dating back to February last year. Bayern Munich has been the vastly dominant side in this fixture and is unbeaten against Koln in their previous 16 encounters, which include 15 wins and one draw. Jamal Musiala found the right role in the team, he moves great in the middle of the field, and it isn’t easy to take the ball away from this guy. Serge Gnabry enjoys the pitch, and when he receives the ball and heads toward the goal, the opponent has problems because he goes through the defense like a fast train. Noussair Mazraoui (Inflammation), Sadio Mané (Inflamed head of fibula), Lucas Hernández (Cruciate Ligament Rupture), and Manuel Neuer (Fracture of the lower leg) will not be able to play for Bayern Munich boss Julian Nagelsmann.
On Tuesday night, we will see Koln travel to take on Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena. Prior to the World Cup break, the visitors were in a poor bit of form, unable to register a single win in their last five league matches, which saw them slip to 10th place with 20 points in 16 games. The break does seem to have helped Koln, as they returned to league action with a thumping 7-1 win over Werder Bremen in their last match over the weekend. In their eight games on the road, Koln has only managed one win, along with three draws and four losses. The last time these sides met, Koln was on the wrong side of a 4-0 scoreline and is likely to find it equally difficult to take anything away this time around. Denis Huseinbasic is a great player, he creates a lot of problems for his opponents, and the greatest virtue of this guy is speed. The bench players are expected to show as much as possible and impose themselves on the coach for the starting lineup.
Conclusion
Bayern Munich is a big favorite in this match, and they are expected to solve the question of the winner at halftime.
The prediction for this match is over 3.5 goals. We hope that football fans will enjoy this match.
