THE PREDICTION
Despite their lowly position in the table, Koln’s away record this season is not bad, reading two wins, two draws and just one defeat, but it will be a tall order for them to get anything from the fortress that is the Red Bull Arena. RB Leipzig have won 10 of their 11 home games in all competitions this season, including all six in the Bundesliga, in which they have conceded just three goals. Julian Nagelsmann’s squad is somewhat stretched by injuries as the end of the year approaches but they should nevertheless be expected to win pretty comfortably.
