FC Cologne vs Slovacko: Top Free Betting Tips

Cologne should be the favorite to win this group but the task will be much harder than it seems. Here are our predictions for this game.

Both Teams To Score – No

Will Cologne concede a goal – that is the main question here and we think that it is about time that the team steps ups and shows us their true potential. Slovacko should not be able to score a goal against them but we already saw them against serious opponents like AIK, whom they beat in both legs. They failed to score against Fenerbahce, however. Overall, Cologne did have problems in defense but they have been improving and this should be a game in which they keep a clean sheet.

Cologne Under 2.5 Goals

We know that Cologne are capable of scoring a bunch of goals while Slovacko did have problems in defense and conceded 3 times against Partizan. Nevertheless, Cologne have mostly been playing well on the road this season and their home performances have not been great in any tournament or championship. With the draw in the first round, we think that Cologne will try to get a clean win and play safer.

Total Corners – Over 8

The corner lines for this fixture are quite lower than we expected after the two performances of both teams in the first round. Both sides had 14 corners at full time in their respective games and while Cologne took 4 and allowed 10, Slovacko took 13 corners against Partizan. We think that 9 will be absolutely smashed and it could even come close at half time.

FC Cologne vs Slovacko: Form, Recent Games, and News

Cologne Preview

Cologne or FC Koln are definitely far from the best teams in the Bundesliga but the championship does allow a total of 8 spots in the European tournaments and Cologne finished 7th last season. Their defense has not been great and they do not have the most capable attack (although they sometimes score 3+ unexpectedly). Overall, they should be one of the two favorites in this group but it will be one of the hardest groups to win.

Slovacko Preview

Slovacko are one of the top teams in the Czech Republic and finished in 4th place last season, which was a reasonable achievement. The team has a solid defense and an above-average attack, and they showed it in the match against Partizan, when they scored 3 goals. Still, they should be the weakest team out of the four in this group and we do not expect them to achieve anything.
