The club is one of the leaders in the German third league at this stage. The team has not lost since the start of the championship (one win and a draw) and occupies the intermediate third place in the standings with four points in the asset. In the first round, Michael Schiele's team scored a fighting draw with Ingolstadt (2:2), and in the last match they scored three points in the match against Ween (4:0).
Cologne fought for survival in the last German championship and was able to keep its registration in the elite. Since the start of the Bundesliga, the team has scored only seven wins and conceded 63 goals, which was one of the worst performances of the season. In the offseason, Lukas Kvasnek's team held three friendly meetings and did not suffer a single defeat. The red and white won against Spanish Real Sociedad (2:1) and Bergisch-Gladbach (8:0), and also drew a fighting draw with Hertha (2:2).
It will be difficult for Würzburg to fight with a representative of the elite, but in a cup match the result is unpredictable. With Cologne, the team has no chance of success, and in control games, the red and white look brilliant. In the last three meetings, Kvasnek's wards have not lost and won two victories, but the hosts are several times inferior to their opponent in class and should not hope for passage to the next round. We believe that Cologne will win by a few goals.
