Prediction

  • Kaiserslautern were humiliated by a red-hot Darmstadt side at Merck-Stadion am Böllenfalltor last weekend, conceding five goals at the hands of Florian Kohfeldt's side. Die Roten Teufel were unbeaten in seven 2. Bundesliga matches prior to that defeat but must now rebuild their momentum.
  • After a frustrating start to their first season back in the second tier, FC Köln have found their footing. The away side hammered Nürnberg 3-1 last time out with all three goals coming inside the opening 31 minutes, and have claimed 16 points from the last 18 available.
