We said: FC Koln 1-1 Borussia Monchengladbach

These two sides have registered just one league win between them so far this season, suggesting there could be a chronic lack of confidence on display at RheinEnergieStadion this weekend. With every point collected crucial for both sets of managers and players even at this early stage of proceedings, we can envisage a low scoring draw. Read more.
