FC Köln will be looking to get their season on track when they return to Bundesliga action on Saturday. Hoffenheim will be the visitors, as they chase a third straight victory in the German top-flight.
It has been a disappointing start to the season for FC Köln, as they are without a win in their opening three matches. Their start to the season currently sees them sit down in 14th in the standings, as they have picked up just one point from a possible nine to kick off the new campaign. They will be hopeful of getting a first win of the season this weekend to avoid getting dragged into the bottom three.
Köln will at least be confident following their most recent match before the international break, as they picked up a first point of the new season away from home against Eintracht Frankfurt. In fact, they likely would have been disappointed not to have won maximum points in that fixture, as they led through a Florian Kainz penalty after 43 minutes. However, Frankfurt struck back to steal a point with just three minutes remaining.
Hoffenheim will be on the road when they return to action this weekend, as they look to move into the Champions League spots for the first time this term. They should come into this fixture in good confidence, as they have won each of their last two matches in the Bundesliga.
Hoffenheim were excellent in their most recent match before the international break, as they stormed to a 3-1 home win over Wolfsburg. John Brooks pulled the hosts level in that fixture, before Hoffenheim scored twice in the final half an hour through goals from Maximillian Beier and Robert Skov to land maximum points.
FC Köln landed a rare win over Hoffenheim in the most recent fixture between these sides, as they scored a 3-1 success in April. However, that win ended a 13-game winless sequence against their rivals. Hoffenheim have won on four of their previous five visits to Köln.
Hoffenheim boasts an excellent record in this fixture, and they have made a very reliable start to the new season. For that reason, we will be siding with the visitors picking up maximum points on the road this weekend to move into a Champions League spot in the Bundesliga.
