Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
Koln and Borussia M’gladbach go head to head at RheinEnergieStadion on day 13 of the new Bundesliga campaign. The Billy Goats failed to win the previous five league fixtures, and they are likely to leave their hearts on the field. However, home win should not be considered as important attacker Anthony Modeste has joined Niklas Hauptmann and Jannes-Kilian Horn in the recovery room.
Die Fohlen, on the other hand, rolled over Greuther Furth 4-0 in their last league match. Borussia M’gladbach are two points behind the Europa League berth, and they should take advantage of Koln’s poor form. A man to watch in the away team will be experienced midfielder Jonas Hofmann, who scored a brace in the triumph over Greuther Furth. All Embolo, Elvedi, Jantschke, Beyer, Kramer, and Doucoure are out of contention through injuries for the visiting team.
