Looking at their past form shows that Cologne:

• haven't been defeated by Eintracht Frankfurt when having played them away from home in the previous 3 league games.
• haven’t won away from home in the past 9 matches in the league. Who knows how long it might last, too.

💡 Prediction

Our feeling is that Cologne will need things to go their way to score goals against this Eintracht Frankfurt outfit who we reckon should be able to get on the scoresheet themselves in a winning performance.

That’s why our selection here is for a very competitive encounter with a 1-0 advantage for Eintracht Frankfurt at the end of this game.

We’ll see what happens.
