Team News

FC Koln
Ulm
  • No changes are expected from FC Köln boss Gerhard Struber on Saturday afternoon.
  • Jacob Christensen, Luca Kilian and Mark Uth are all confirmed absentees for the home side.
  • Christian Ortag broke his collarbone during the game against Eintracht Braunschweig, so Niclas Thiede will deputise in goal during his recovery period.
  • Aleksandar Kahvic and Tom Gaal are the only other injury concerns for Thomas Wörle to contend with this weekend.

Prediction

  • Luca Waldschmidt put FC Köln ahead after three minutes last Sunday before Damion Downs added a brace to make it 3-0 on 15 against Karlsruher.
  • However, the hosts capitulated after streaking into the lead and eventually had to settle for a 4-4 draw. Despite offering plenty going forward, Gerhard Struber's men are now winless in three.
  • Ulm followed up their impressive 3-1 away win against Elversberg with another strong result in gameweek eight, cruising to a victory by the same scoreline against a ten-man Eintracht Braunschweig.
  • Those results have moved the reigning 3. Liga champions two points clear of the bottom three.
