• RB Leipzig vs VfL Wolfsburg Prediction: Bundesliga Match on 13.04.2024

Bundesliga Preview

Bayern Munich have endured a 2023-24 season to forget this term, with the long-term German champions likely to lose their grip on the top prize in the country. They come into this round of matches sitting second in the standings, and they are a staggering 16 points behind Bayer Leverkusen with just six rounds of matches remaining. 

Bayern’s form throughout the season has been very inconsistent, and that is evident based on the fact that they have suffered six defeats in their 28 matches this term. The German champions could yet have to face a fight to secure second in the standings. Bayern come into this round after losing each of their last two matches, with their most recent defeat coming in stunning fashion after throwing away a 2-0 lead against Heidenheim.

FC Köln will also face pressure on their shoulders this weekend, as they are in a race to pick up points to secure their status in the top flight. They come into this round of matches sitting second bottom in the standings after winning just four of their 28 matches this season. That leaves them sitting 17th, but a victory at the Allianz Arena could lift them up into the relegation playoff spot. 

Köln at least built momentum in their previous fixture, as they secured a much-needed maximum points against Bochum. Both of their goals in that success were netted in second half injury time, with Luca Waldschmidt ultimately scoring the winner. 

Bayern Munich vs FC Köln Head to Head

Bayern Munich have recorded victories in their last two matches against their rivals, and they are unbeaten in the last 19 league meetings between the two sides since a 3-2 defeat in February 2011. 

Bayern Munich vs FC Köln Prediction

Bayern’s long hold on the Bundesliga title will come to an end this weekend, but it’s likely that they will pick up the victory that they require to keep their fight going for an extra 24 hours. Therefore, we will be siding with the Bavarian hosts registering maximum points on Saturday.
