Prediction

  • FC Köln took the lead on two occasions against league leaders Fortuna Düsseldorf last weekend, but Gerhard Struber's men couldn't get over the line and were ultimately forced to settle for a point. The hosts have been the more promising side going forward throughout all of their six league games so far, but they have just two wins to show for their efforts.
  • Karlsruher responded well after going behind early at the Avnet Arena last Sunday, scoring twice in a six-minute spell in the first half, before Magdeburg drew level late on. By failing to win, KSC passed up the opportunity to move top of the table, although they remain unbeaten ahead of gameweek seven's challenging test.
