In the ninth round of the Bundesliga II the formation of the Cologne receives in its stadium the formation of Duisburg this is a clash between two historical teams of German football although the formation of the Cologne has much more palmarés.
In this sporting season also the Cologne is in much better highlight than the formation of Duisburg as they will be on the field the first placed of this Bundesliga II before the red and last flashlight, Duisburg.
The Cologne are after eight days in the first position of the German Bundesliga II with 19 points earned from six wins, a draw and a defeat with twenty-one goals scored and twelve goals conceded.
To play at home they have two wins, a draw and a defeat with nine goals scored and eight conceded goals.
The Cologne are in good shape having won the last three meetings of this Bundesliga II beating Sandhausen by two balls to zero, Ingolstadt by two balls to one and in the last day victory away from home in the stronghold of Bielefeld, by three balls to one.
In the Colony, Simon Terodde has been in the spotlight for eight days and has already scored 12 goals and is one of those responsible for the good campaign of the Cologne.
Duisburg had a bad start to the campaign in the 2018/2019 Bundesliga since eight days ago they were at the bottom of the league with just two points from two draws and six defeats with seven goals scored and seventeen goals conceded.
Playing away from home have curiously their only two points with two equals against Magdeburg and Union Berlin and two defeats against Darmstadt and Dresden with five goals scored and nine conceded.
The Duisburg come from a defeat in the last round losing at home against Regensburg by three balls to one. This is a terrible start for the Duisburg guys who last year finished in the seventh final position of this league.
To play at home and against a Duisburg in great difficulties I see here the Cologne to win and perhaps by more than a goal of advantage cementing its first position in the league.
