Köln's struggle is real here at RheinEnergieStadion with only 2 points collected from 7 Bundesliga games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 0-2-5.

The last victory here came in the Hoffenheim match.

Köln's previous game was a DFB Pokal match also played at home, ending 1-0 versus Osnabruck. The home side are looking to build on that result. 0-0 away at RB Leipzig before that.

Augsburg form and stats

2 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. That’s the product of Augsburg playing as the away team in the Bundesliga this season.

The manager H. Herrlich was unhappy after their last game, a DFB Pokal match played at their home ground WWK Arena. Augsburg suffered a 0-3 loss to RB Leipzig (placed 3rd). A loss against Eintracht Frankfurt was the result prior to that, in a Bundesliga home game.

Augsburg goalkeeper Rafał Gikiewicz had a great day against RB Leipzig, but despite making seven saves the loss could not be avoided.
