FC Koln vs. Bayern Munich 1/15/22 Bundesliga Soccer Pick, Predictions, and Odds

FC Koln is welcoming Bayern Munich to RheinEnergieStadion in round 19 of the German Bundesliga. Koln is on a nice winning streak in Bundesliga, they are playing well, but we will see if that can last. Bayern is getting some players back for this game, but they still have a lot of absent players.

As I’ve mentioned, Koln is in great form right now, they are on a 3-game winning streak, while they have lost only 1 of their last 9 games. Thanks to this amazing streak, Koln is now in 6^th place with 28 points, which is only 2 points less than Freiburg in the last Champions League spot. Offensively, Koln is doing well, and they have scored 30 goals so far, but defensively, Koln has to improve. Koln has conceded 28 goals so far, which isn’t the worst of all the teams in the top 6. Modeste has scored a solid 12 goals for Koln so far this season, and he is ready to start in this game as well. Schmitz has added 4 assists. There are a few injuries in Koln, but nothing too bad, and I think they are good enough to have a good game here.

Bayern has lost to Borussia M’gladbach in their last game, but they were missing a ton of players. In that game, Bayern did score a goal, but they disappeared after that. Lewandowski is the leading goalscorer for Bayern with 20 goals, I mean who else would it be, while Gnabry added 9 goals. Thomas Muller has added 15 assists. Even though Bayern is getting some players back, they are still missing a lot of them. The best news for Bayern is they are getting Neuer back. with 57 scored goals, 18 conceded goals, and 43 points from 18 games, Bayern is at the top of the table, but Borussia is now only 3 points behind them. Bayern needs a win, and even though they have a lot of injuries, they have enough firepower left to beat anyone, or at least to give them a hard time. Bayern is the best team in Bundesliga, they are one of the best in the world, and they are always very dangerous.

Koln has lost only 1 home game so far this season, while Bayern has lost only 1 on the road. I wouldn’t be even thinking about this game if Bayern was all healthy, but with the number of missing players, I think Koln could do something here. I will take something on goals.
