Bayern Munich vs Köln Prediction & Betting Tips - Bundesliga

Prediction published on 22/01/2023, 06:30  by Devesh Jaganath in Bundesliga Predictions

Midweek Bundesliga action is on the cards in the coming week, and on Tuesday night, we will see Koln travel to take on Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena. Prior to the World Cup break, the visitors were in a poor bit of form, unable to register a single win in their last five league matches, which saw them slip to 10th place with 20 points in 16 games. The break does seem to have helped Koln, as they returned to league action with a thumping 7-1 win over Werder Bremen in their last match over the weekend. However, the visitor's form on the road this season cannot be ignored for all the wrong reasons. In their eight matches on the road, Koln has only managed one win, along with three draws and four losses. The last time these sides met, Koln was on the wrong side of a 4-0 scoreline and is likely to find it equally difficult to take anything away this time around.

Bayern Munich has been their regular dominant self this season. After a somewhat disappointing return to league action, where they drew 1-1 to RB Leipzig, Bayern extended their undefeated streak to nine games, including seven wins and two draws. They are in pole position in the league standings and are five points clear of the chasing pack, which includes Frankfurt, Union Berlin, and Freiburg, who are all tied on 30 points each. The hosts have been excellent at the Allianz this season, winning five and drawing two of their seven home matches, and if they avoid defeat in this one, they will extend their unbeaten run at home to 15 matches, dating back to February last year. Bayern Munich has been the vastly dominant side in this fixture and is unbeaten against Koln in their last 16 encounters, which includes 15 wins and one draw.
