FC Köln have been surviving in the Bundesliga for five years now, yet their time may be up as they sit joint bottom with a mere six points. They are in for another tough match welcoming Bayern to the RheinEnergieStadion in Cologne.
History doomed to repeat itself
Bayern have had their way with Köln of late, particularly when playing in their opposition's backyard, having won nine on the bounce here.
With Köln's awful record right now as well they are unlikely to lift their foot, looking to keep up with Leverkusen, who are presently the only unbeaten side in Europe.
Further to this is the fact that Bayern haven't lost any of their last 52 games, against sides in the relegation zone, winning 44 of these a drawing a mere eight, a record that dates back all the way to 2008.
While Bayern look set to claim an easy win they may not come out unscathed, as their recent games against Köln have resulted in much of the same.
Eight of their last ten games have seen both sides get on the score sheet, and Bayern have proven fallible this year conceding in three of their last four away games, oft against far worse opposition.
Köln can find their way into the match having scored in all of their home games, bar one, yet they should end up falling to the wayside against this indomitable Bayern side.

Köln comfortable in the corner
Despite some terrible performances by the side so far, one that has seen them win just one game, and draw three of their eleven matches on the year, a turnaround could be on the cards as they have earned five points from their last four games.
Even with some dismal results, they maintained an impressive corner rate, having earned an average of 9 per home game.
They have never earned less than six in any of their home games, yet considering the might of Bayern lowering this line could be the prudent thing to do.
An over of three seems sensible considering their impressive rate at home. factoring in the opposition, and at bang-on evens this still offers some great value.

Kane record-breaking set to continue
Harry Kane has broken his first goalscoring record in the Bundesliga, having the most goals by any player, with 17, through the first 11 games of the year, having bagged three braces in his last three games.
One more accolade could be on the horizon, should he be able to score two more, against Köln. Tying the most braces in a row record, with two other players, one such from 1967.
Nevertheless, no striker has made more of an impact, bar perhaps Erling Haaland last year, than Kane has, and his resting over the international break should mean he is fighting fit and ready to go.
Look for Kane to continue scoring in droves and against the lowly Köln could find his way into another brace of goals.
