1.FC Köln - 1860 München

After Cologne could not win their match on monday evening they are 2 points behind third place where Kaiserslautern has all in their hands now. Due to this Cologne must win this one today if they want to overcome Kaiserslautern. Maybe this can lead that the pressure is getting much higher on Kaiserslautern who plays on monday evening. Therefore we have a change in the role again. It was always in the last weeks that Kaiserslautern or Cologne played on monday but they failed often both. If they want to hold their aim alive, they have to win here, as I wrote above. Their opponent comes without any worries and their season is gone and they play for nothing here. Sure a lot of trouble in and around the club as in the past weeks anyway. All about Ismaik or he is against and so on. But this should be another story, they are happy that they can play soccer today.

Very important news for Cologne as both suspended players returns today. With midfielder Strobl and Top striker Ujah he gets some options back. And they should be in starting lineup immediately as they have a lot of class above all Ujah who can help with his goals anyway. The nigerian returns and it seems that Stanislawski change his system to old style with 4-4-2 which was played often in the past and they had success with it. In defenisve row no changes expected, in midfield maybe if Strobl move in, Lehmann must on bench, in offensive Ujah for sure beside Maierhofer while Chihi must on bench after his not very good performance last monday. One of their key players Clemens stands on the pitch, he is in great form at the moment and looked very good in Duisburg. He can be the different in this match.


After 1860 lost 1-2 against FSV Frnakfurt at home Coach Schmidt was very angry and he want to change a lot today. Despite all trouble they want to concentrate them on this match and want to give all what they are able to bring. Of course, the season is over for them they play for nothing and this can be a motivation problem as well. Schindler and Halfar must maybe on bench while Stoppelkamp and Bülow replace them. Also Volz is not sure for the starting lineup. I do not think that they go for 100% here although he changes a lot.
