Bayern Munich V FC Koln

Coutinho and Perisic are still adapting to a new club. Both players had a fantastic game last week and could help the team. As it seems, both players should have a decisive role in Kovac’s Bayern. There was a doubt in Kovac after last year’s results.

Bayern could not win last game as they faced Leipzig. Lewandowski scored again but could not secure three points as Leipzig tied the game quickly. Bayern has 8 points in four matches, and it will be an essential home match to get ahead of competitors.

Head to head statistics

Bayern Munich could win last two home matches against FC Koln. We should mention the game of Bundesliga in 2016 when Bayern could only get 1 point. Match ended 1-1 and Bayern lost two vital points of that season.

FC Koln had two away matches in Bundesliga this season. The club won one game against Freiburg and lost against Werder Bremen. At the same time, Bayern had two home matches this season but won only one. Bayern could not win the very first home match against Hertha Berlin.

Lewandowski can’t stop scoring

Robert scored goals in every official match of the Bundesliga this season. Poland forward is very dangerous for FC Koln, so they have to look after Robert’s movement in the penalty area. Lewandowski already scored seven goals in the Bundesliga and has a chance to win top scorer award again.

Eintracht Frankfurt V Dortmund Borussia

Dortmund had a crazy home game in the Champions League on Tuesday. Borussia dominated Barcelona for the whole match but could not score a goal. Marco Reus had few real chances but could not convert those shots into the goals. Reus even missed the penalty in the second half of the match.

Eintracht also had a tough home game in Europa League on Thursday. Unfortunately, Frankfurt lost the game against Arsenal conceding three goals. Gunners scored easy goals while Eintracht could not score any. Dortmund will rest two more days than Eintracht, but that’s because of the difference between Champions League and Europa League match schedule.

 

Dortmund traveled in Frankfurt with a full squad. There is no serious injury and Favre’s team is ready for the fifth round.

Head to head match statistics

In the Bundesliga, Dortmund can’t win last six games in Frankfurt against Eintracht. Final match Reus team could win in Frankfurt was in 2013.

Dortmund has 9 points while Frankfurt has only six. Both teams already lost one match this season in the Bundesliga.
