Köln form and stats

Köln's results here at RheinEnergieStadion in the Bundesliga have been very modest with 1 victory, 5 draws and 8 defeats. Köln has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager F. Funkel and the players.

Köln lost their last game at Bayer Leverkusen (placed 5th) after a 0-3 scoreline. Ahead of that match, Köln lost 2-3 at home to Mainz 05.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Köln as they are travelling to their away game against Augsburg in the Bundesliga. That match is three days after this one.

Köln are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 16 goals in 14 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Köln defense is not exactly impregnable. 26 goals conceded from 14 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
