B. Monchengladbach – FC Koln : Preview & Prediction
Borussia Monchengladbach host FC Köln on the 30th day of the Bundesliga. For the home side, survival is not officially assured, but there are some very positive signs as they are in 11th place, 11 points clear of the relegation zone. The Foals have been doing better in recent weeks as they have only lost one game in the last six. Indeed, two consecutive wins against Hertha Berlin (2-0) and Bochum (0-2) before drawing against Mainz (1-1). Pléa’s team-mates continued this momentum last weekend by beating Greuther Fürth (0-2). This victory will allow them to relax and look forward to the next few games.
As for FC Cologne, the season is going so well that they can still hope to finish in the top 6. Indeed, Cologne is in 8th place with 5 games to go and only 1 point behind Hoffenheim in 6th. After mixed results and in particular a defeat on the field of Union Berlin (1-0), the players of Cologne started again last weekend during the reception of Mainz (3-2).
