Bayern Munich return to Bundesliga action on Friday, chasing maximum points to move to the top of the standings. FC Köln will be the hosts, seeking just their second victory of the season.
Bundesliga Preview
Bayern Munich will be in a race for the Bundesliga championship this season and a win on Friday would send them back to the summit before their rivals have the chance to respond. FC Köln has only recorded one victory in their opening eleven matches, sitting second bottom in the standings. The German side has gone three matches without a win, but have been held to draws in their last two.
The hosts have accumulated just six points from their eleven matches, marking their second-worst start to a Bundesliga season in their history. Bayern Munich, on the other hand, are enjoying their best start to a Bundesliga season since the 2015-16 campaign, boasting the best record of any side sitting second in the standings after eleven rounds of matches. They have already netted 42 goals in the Bundesliga this term.
FC Köln vs Bayern Munich Head to Head
Köln will be huge outsiders for victory this weekend based on their record against Bayern. The hosts have lost each of their last nine home matches against the reigning champions. Meanwhile, Bayern have never lost in 52 previous attempts against a side sitting in the Bundesliga relegation spots.
FC Köln vs Bayern Munich Prediction
The writing appears to be on the wall for Köln this weekend. They have a poor overall record in this fixture, while Bayern don’t lose against sides in the bottom two spots. Therefore, we fully expect the reigning champions to move to the summit with a big-scoring success on the road.
