Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest there isn't an obvious winner here, but good reason to think Köln and Freiburg will score 2 or more goals between them. We've seen goals when they've gone head-to-head historically, and neither Timo Schultz or Christian Streich has suffered the frustration of many 0-0s lately either. The bookies are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with best odds of 1.22 equating to roughly a 75% probability.

An away win looks like the most likely outcome in the win/draw/win market, with our predictive algorithm suggesting there’s a 43% chance of Freiburg coming away with a win.
