St. Pauli - Cologne: betting tip (cf 3.00) and bets on the Bundesliga match

Current form

St. Pauli performed well in February, when he was able to score three victories, but it was not possible to keep such a high level on the course. In the last five rounds, the Pirates have never won, scored only two points and are approaching the start of round 30 in 16th place in the play-off zone for retaining their registration in the Bundesliga for next season. The gap from the saving 15th line is three points.

In the last round, St. Pauli quite expectedly suffered a crushing defeat with a score of 0:5 on their own field from Bavaria. In that match, Munich led 1-0 after the first half, and scored four more goals in the second 45 minutes. Before that, Alexander Blessin's team scored one point with Union on the road (1:1), and led 1-0 in the score before the break, but did not retain the advantage. As you can see, very often pirates fail in the second half, often they simply do not have enough strength to keep a high level for the entire 90 minutes.

The Pirates are not stable on their own field during the season. They scored 16 points in 14 home games, the 16th highest score in the Bundesliga. In the previous two home matches, the team lost in turn to Freiburg (1:2) and Bayern Munich (0:5).

Disqualifications and injuries

Fujita will miss the game due to too many yellow cards. Spary, Sands and Jones will not play due to injuries, Smith is questionable.

Current form

Cologne decided to change the coach towards the end of the season. Lucas Kwasnek was replaced by Rene Wagner. So far, apparently, this decision of the management has had a positive effect. The Goats broke a long-running winless streak in the last round, winning on their own field against Werder with a score of 3:1. Before that, with Wagner at the helm, the team won back from the score 0:2 with Eintracht (2:2).

As you can see, Cologne pleases its fans with a productive game, is not afraid to go on the attack with great force, regardless of who you have to play with. Wagner only had to stabilize the defensive game of his players. The Goats have already conceded 50 goals, the last time they played was on January 30, when they defeated Wolfsburg at home with a minimum score of 1-0.

In the standings, Cologne is in 13th place with 30 points in the asset. So far, the club has not guaranteed itself anything, from today's opponent, who is in the play-off zone, the goats come off only by five points. They rarely delight their fans with successful results on the road, they have won only two victories since the beginning of the season, scored 11 points, this is the 14th figure in the Bundesliga.

Disqualifications and injuries

Only Kilian and Hubers are in the Cologne infirmary.
