Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 2-0
Paderborn
Koln and Paderborn face each other in the relegation six-pointer at RheinEnergieStadion on day 8 of the new Bundesliga campaign. The Billy Goats have collected only one point from possible 21 in the 2019/2020 season to date, but they will not have a better chance than this to get back on course. Koln showed character in a 1-1 draw with Schalke in their last league match and they are definitely capable of beating Paderborn, whose defence has been very shaky in the first half of the season.
The visitors conceded 12 goals in total in previous four league fixtures and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Koln’s party at RheinEnergieStadion. A man to watch in the home team will be Simon Terrode, who is eager to add more goals to his account. In their last meeting in a competitive match Paderborn defeated Koln 3-2, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge.

Highlighted Team (Paderborn):
Welcoming their rivals at Benteler-Arena, Paderborn are a German club that will compete in the Bundesliga in the 2019/2020 season. The club played their first ever match in the German top flight on August 24, 2019, with the team sharing the spoils with Mainz (2-2) in front of home fans.
Benteler-Arena can hold up to 15,000 spectators and it was opened on July 20, 2008. Paderborn play their home matches in blue and black shirts and black shirts, but white is the dominant colour of their away kit. Until the 1980s TuS Scholls Neuhaus were considered the club’s main rivals are Arminia Bielefeld, with the two teams facing each other in Ostwestfalenderby.
This rivalry was established in the 2008/2009 season when Arminia Bielefeld dropped to the 2. Bundesliga. It has to be noted that Paderborn have yet to represent Germany in European competitions.
