  • Battling Augsburg have gained a league best 23 points from losing positions, fighting back on no less than 11 separate occasions.
  • Koln have won on their last three trips to Augsburg, but have only garnered two points after falling behind all season and have slipped seven points from the safety zone.
  • Augsburg have given away nine penalties this season, but have won their last four games to fly up the table to the dizzy heights of seventh.
  • New Koln coach Timo Schulz has started with four successive away draws. The reverse fixture ended 1-1 and a similar result is on the cards.
