Jonas Hector will try to keep Koln's survival hopes alive when Ermedin Demirovic and Freiburg come to town on Sunday. Read our reasons for Koln vs Freiburg prediction and betting tips.
Back-to-back wins over RB Leipzig and Augsburg has got Koln fans believing in survival, something that appeared more than a little far-fetched after their nine-game run without a victory (D2, L7) before beating second-place Leipzig. It means Friedhelm Funkel's three-game tenure is looking pretty miraculous so far. Captain Hector and Ondrej Duda respectively hit braces in those successive victories and a third on the spin could move the Billy Goats out of the relegation playoff place for the first time since Matchday 27 if results elsewhere go their way. Duda is Cologne’s seven-goal top scorer in 2020/21, thanks to a run of five goals across his last six appearances. Funkel has a fully-fit squad to choose from and no reason to change his side from the one that collected all three points from the WWK Arena last time out. Koln has scored twice in each of their last three Bundesliga home games.
Koln: T. Horn - Ehizibue, Bornauw, Czichos, J. Horn - Skhiri, Hector (c) - Wolf, Duda, Kainz - Andersson
Out: -
Doubtful: -
Coach: Friedhelm Funkel
As for Freiburg, Christian Streich's men are sitting comfortably in ninth - well clear of relegation and could still sneak into a European place, albeit their chances are slim. It was a disappointing midweek outing for the Black Forest side as Freiburg fell to a 3-0 defeat at Hertha Berlin. Vincenzo Grifo climbed off the bench to convert an 81st-minute penalty that clinched a draw at home to Hoffenheim on Matchday 31 and the Italian should return to the starting XI for the trip to Koln. Lucas Höler is most likely to make way on the left to accommodate Grifo, while Baptiste Santamaria is also expected to replace Yannik Keitel having served a one-match suspension against Hoffenheim.
Grifo ended a 12-game barren run last time out. He’s now Freiburg’s outright top scorer this season with eight Bundesliga goals, one more than Nils Petersen. Demirovic scored one and assisted two as Freiburg ran out 5-0 winners in the reverse fixture. He’s assisted three in his last four but is without a goal in six. Freiburg has won seven of their 10 meetings with Cologne under Christian Streich.
Freiburg: Müller - Lienhart, Schlotterbeck, Heintz - Schmid, Santamaria, Höfler, Günter (c) - Sallai, Demirovic, Grifo
Out: -
Doubtful: -
Coach: Christian Streich

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
