FC Bayern has not lost to FC Köln since 2011.
Over the weekend, Bayern Munich roared back into the Bundesliga with a 8-1 win over Wolfsburg. Michael Olise, Harry Kane, and Luis Díaz took turns scoring goals and dropping dimes. Even Raphaël Guerreiro and Leon Goretzka got on the scoring sheet. Bayern will look to close out the Hinrunde with an undefeated record.
Köln was one of the hottest teams at the beginning of the season but is winless in the team’s last seven matches.
Prediction: Bayern wins 3-0. Köln’s counterattack will give Bayern fits for the entire half, resulting in a number of close calls. Harry Kane will explode for a second half hat trick, including a penalty kick, tap-in, and world class finish from 13 yards out.
It’s Bayern time.
