Borussia Dortmund vs FC Köln Prediction: Bundesliga Match on 28.11.2020

Borussia Dortmund are refusing to give up the title challenge against Bayern Munich at this early stage of the season, and they could leapfrog their great rivals this weekend with a win against FC Köln.

Bundesliga Preview

There is a sense that Borussia Dortmund are in a better place this season to challenge for the Bundesliga title, as they have improved immeasurably defensively. They have the second best defensive record in the league so far this season, and they have conceded five goals fewer than Bayern Munich. However, they are still one point behind the Bavarian giants, and will need a win in this fixture to put the pressure on the reigning champions. Dortmund have won five from six recently, with their only defeat during this stretch of form coming against Bayern. They bounced back from that defeat with a win in their most recent fixture against Hertha Berlin. Erling Braut Haaland celebrated winning the Golden Boy award in that fixture, as he scored four goals in the second half. Raphael Guerriero scored the other goal in the massive win for Dortmund.

This couldn’t be a worse fixture for FC Köln, as they have been in terrible form so far this season. They find themselves in the bottom two places in the Bundesliga, and are yet to win a game in Germany this season. They have lost five times in eight fixtures, and have struggled to hit the back of the net. FC Köln come into this fixture against Dortmund after losing two of their last three, with both defeats coming at home. They have drawn their last two away fixtures against Stuttgart and Werder Bremen. However, their recent defeat against Union Berlin shows that this will be a hard fixture for them this weekend.

Borussia Dortmund vs FC Köln Head To Head

FC Köln haven’t beaten Dortmund since 2015, which means that they have gone seven without a win against their opponents this weekend. Dortmund will be full of confidence as they have won the last four against FC Köln. They won the last meeting 5-1 at home.

Borussia Dortmund vs FC Köln Prediction

All of the stats point to a big win for Dortmund in this fixture, as they challenge for the top spot in the league table. There could be more goals in this fixture for Haaland, as his stock continues to rise.
