Hoffenheim vs FC Köln Prediction: Bundesliga Match Match on 22.04.2023

FC Köln has climbed out of the relegation fight over recent weeks, and they could edge toward the top half of the standings with victory on Saturday. However, Hoffenheim comes into this showdown in fine recent form after going four without a defeat.

    

Bundesliga Preview

FC Köln has battled back well in the second half of the season, and they could close to within one point of Borussia Monchengladbach with a victory this weekend. Köln comes into this fixture after having gone three without a defeat in the Bundesliga. Over that period, they have recorded just a single win, with two of their fixtures ending in draws. 

That includes their most recent fixture against Mainz. Köln struck back at home in that fixture in the second period, with Dejan Ljubicic netting the leveller just six minutes after the restart. They would have been disappointed with the point overall, as Köln dominated the fixture throughout, and that was evident from the fact that they finished the match with four shots on target compared to the one shot managed by Mainz. 

Hoffenheim will have the home advantage this weekend, as they look for a crucial victory to edge clear of the relegation places. At present, they sit 13th in the standings, which means that they hold a five-point advantage over the bottom three places in the Bundesliga. 

However, they come into this showdown in excellent recent form after going four without a defeat. That is mirrored by the fact that they have won three of their previous four matches. But, that winning sequence was brought to an end in their previous match, as they picked up a credible draw at the Allianz Arena against Bayern Munich. 

Hoffenheim vs FC Köln Head to Head

Hoffenheim has an excellent record in this fixture, as they have gone 13 without defeat against FC Köln. However, the previous match this season ended Hoffenheim’s eight-game winning sequence, as the two sides played out a 1-1 draw.

Hoffenheim vs FC Köln Prediction

Hoffenheim certainly appears to have turned a corner in recent months, and their record in this fixture makes them a very appealing selection. We would side with the home side to claim a ninth victory in ten matches against FC Köln.
