Koln vs Holstein Kiel Prediction: Double Chance for the Visitors

Prediction for the German DFB Pokal match between Koln vs Holstein Kiel, which will take place on October 29th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

Recently, the hosts lost away to Darmstadt and at home to Paderborn. These results put Cologne in 12th place in the championship standings, just four points ahead of Eintracht, who are in danger of being relegated. The Goats are currently in 7th place in the league, with 7 points from six matches and a goal difference of 14:10. In the first round of the German Cup, the Goats showed their strength against Sandhausen, beating the team 3:2 in extra time.

After the international break, Holstein played two matches in the Bundesliga. The Northerners have suffered two defeats: 0:2 at home to Union and 1:2 away to Stuttgart. These results put Holstein in 17th place in the German league, behind Hoffenheim, who are in 15th place and just six points behind. Holstein's away record in the German top flight is only 14th, with two points gained in four meetings and a goal difference of 7:9. In the first round of the German Cup, Holstein showed they had the edge over Alemannia, beating the team away with a score of 3:2.

It's worth noting that the teams are in different divisions. Despite being a well-known club, Koln is currently in 12th place in the second Bundesliga, while the Goats are clear favorites for the meeting despite this result. We think Holstein is perhaps being underestimated a bit, and the Northerners will try to play well, at least in the cup. Of course, Holstein's results in the championship are pretty poor. We don't think there'll be many goals in the match, and we wouldn't be surprised if it ends up in a draw.
