Leipzig vs Koln: prediction for the Bundesliga match
Koln can't beat Leipzig for three matches in a row, but will The Billy Goats put an end to that streak on February 11? The answer is in our prediction.
Command Analysis
RB Leipzig
GermanyAt the start of the season Leipzig faced some problems - after the departure of Julian Nagelsmann and a number of key players, Jesse Marsch had to build a completely new team. Obviously, after a massive rebuild Bulls were inconsistent and dropped points quite regularly, so the American manager was eventually sacked. Domenico Tedesco was appointed as the new head coach.
He quickly improved team's performance and Bulls are now on the race for the Champions League zone. Leipzig are currently 7th in the league with 31 points to their name, but 4th-placed Union are only three points ahead. A 2:3 defeat to Bayern in the previous round put an end to Bulls' run of three straight victories.
FC Koeln
GermanyKoln had no ambitious objectives for the current season - The Billy Goats surely were getting ready for the relegation battle, just like in the previous season. But Steffen Baumgart's team put up a solid performance in the first half of the season and managed to get into a battle for the European competitions zone.
At the moment, Koln are 6th in the standings with 32 points in the asset, they have a chance to even break into the Champions League zone - a 4th spot is only two points away. In the latest match Koln recorded a 1:0 victory over their nearest competitor, Freiburg, breaking the winless streak of two matches.

Tip and bets
In the most recent match Leipzig suffered a defeat to Bayern, ending a three-game winning streak, team failed to get closer to the Champions League zone. But despite a defeat, Bulls looked solid in the match against the giants - Leipzig scored two goals and had a chance to snatch a draw in the end of the game. Hosts are in a wonderful form, so they should be able to get the three points in a clash against Koln.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (-1) on Leipzig
Leipzig wants to fight for the Champions League spot, but competitiveness for two available places is too high, so Bulls have no right to drop points in the second consecutive match. Hosts are in a wonderful form now, they are looking convincing on the pitch, plus their line-up is much better than Koln's. We are expecting a confident victory from the favourite.
Our second bet is on Leipzig to win by two goals
