Our prediction for this Bundesliga 2 match:
After surviving Hertha Berlin in the DFB Pokal last 16, Koln will look to return to winning ways in the 2. Bundesliga when they take on Regensburg on Matchday 15. The Billy Goats are seen as one of the main candidates to secure automatic promotion, but they need to start winning on a regular basis if they are to meet the goal. Both Julian Pauli and Jacob Christensen are sidelined with injuries, but head coach Gerhard Struber can count on key players for Sunday’s showdown. Luxembourg international Mathias Olesen is widely expected to replace Julian Pauli in the starting XI.
Regensburg, on the other hand, do not seem to be at the top of their game, with the team losing to both Schalke and Magdeburg, while playing out a goalless draw with Eintracht Braunschweig. As Regensburg are on a four-game goalless run in all competitions, we are tempted to bet on the visiting team. Midfielder Andreas Geipl is banned for the hosts.
