3.15Tip and bets
Bookmakers do not believe in the visitors at all, although they have suffered only one defeat this season and are higher than the hosts in the table. Cologne suffered a major defeat in the previous round, and overall this season they have only won two confident victories at home - over outsiders Ulm and Eintracht. Paderborn is clearly not one of them and will certainly be able to impose resistance on their opponent.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (+1) on Paderborn for 1.70
Bet on total
The opponents have not demonstrated reliability in defense in recent matches and constantly rely on attack. Most likely, the teams will continue to rely on the attack line, so it is worth betting on the total over.
Our prediction is total over 3.5 goals with odds of 1.95
Bet on corners
It is highly likely that Cologne will take the initiative on the football field from the very first minutes and will be able to win in many additional indicators, including the number of corners taken.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1.5) on Cologne with odds of 1.85
