FC Cologne came up against Osnabrück on Monday and the encounter ended in a 1:1 draw away from home. The squad is currently on a run of three consecutive games without a triumph, losing 1 and finishing in a draw on 2 occasions. It might sound strange but playing at home has proved to be rather a disadvantage in FC Cologne’s recent 10 meetings, as the visiting teams won on five occasions and the hosts achieved just one triumph for the period. Three of FC Cologne’s five previous encounters finished with more than 2.5 goals and each saw both sides finding the net. The players of FC Cologne left their hearts on the field but still did not manage to prevent their opponents from scoring and the team found the net at least once in each of those. The total of netted goals by the sides involved across the club’s last five outings amounts to 17.
