FC Koln vs Eintracht Frankfurt
German Bundesliga
Date: 12 February 2023, Sunday
Kick-off at 16:30 UK / 17:30 CET
Venue: RheinEnergieStadion (Koln).

FC Koln and Eintracht Frankfurt will close Matchday No 20 in German Bundesliga on Sunday afternoon at RheinEnergieStadion.

The hosts will be looking to maintain their unbeaten streak this year, while Eintracht will be hoping to complete a perfect week after two successes within the previous seven days.

Frankfurt have bagged seven goals in the back-to-back wins over Hertha Berlin and Darmstadt. Randal Kolo Muani was on target on both occasions, netting three goals in total.

The French forward is now his team’s top scorer with nine goals to his name this season. Knowing he is also on penalty duties in Frankfurt, looking at him as a potential anytime goalscorer pick might be a wise decision.

Anyways, a 3-0 drubbing of Hertha Berlin last weekend helped Eintracht Frankfurt stay within a five-point distance from leaders Bayern Munich at the top of the standings.

It will be very interesting to see how Oliver Glasner’s men will solve this Sunday’s puzzle as the match against FC Koln will be anything but an easy test for them.

FC Koln are undefeated in all four Bundesliga games since the World Cup break despite facing the likes of Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig in the process.

It is worth noting that Koln’s clash against RB Leipzig offered no more than two shots on target in total in the 90 minutes of play.

FC Koln vs Eintracht Frankfurt Head-to-head

• The home court advantage has played a big part in the history of this matchup. FC Koln thus have 22 wins, 16 draws, and only 9 defeats in the previous 47 home outings against Frankfurt.
• The two teams shared spoils in a 1-1 stalemate when they met each other in the reverse outing in the first half of the season.
• None of the previous six head to head matches between these rivals provided three or more goals.

FC Koln vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction

FC Koln will enter this game on the back of successive goalless draws in the clashes against Schalke and RB Leipzig. Knowing that none of the previous six head to head outings between them and Eintracht Frankfurt offered three or more goals, we are very much tempted to back the low-scoring scenario on Sunday.

Since Koln have dominated this matchup historically in the clashes at RheinEnergieStadion, we will take the 6.50 odds offered for the Home win & Under 2.5 goals FT pick.
