THE PREDICTION

Although Borussia Dortmund were just four points behind table toppers Bayern Munich going into this latest round of Bundesliga fixtures, come kick off here against Koln the gap may have increased to seven points making this a must win match from their perspective. The return of superstar striker Erling Haaland has therefore come at an excellent time for them. Although games involving Koln are usually low-scoring, that extra touch of class posed by the visiting side going forward is likely to prove the difference here. So, whilst backing under 2.5 goals scored for the fifth consecutive Koln fixture is to be considered, Borussia Dortmund should still do enough to triumph.
