Prediction

  • Six points from the safety zone, struggling Koln are the league's lowest scorers with only 15 goals and played last Friday so enjoy more rest than Stuttgart.
  • Following back-to-back defeats after the winter break, Stuttgart have bounced back with four straight league wins to maintain their Champions League push.
  • Third-placed Stuttgart won the reverse fixture 2-0 but Koln are fighting for their lives at the bottom so back a stalemate at good odds.
