Koln and Union Berlin are lurking outside the top seven as they play on matchday 15 of the Bundesliga campaign. This match on Saturday in Cologne between the tenth-placed ‘Billy Goats’ and the eighth-placed ‘Iron Ones’ comes with our prediction of both teams scoring goals.
With 16 points (W4, D4, L6), Koln have a five-point lead over the relegation zone. They are two points behind Union (W5, D3, L6), who are six points behind seventh-placed Eintracht Frankfurt.
Koln were beaten 2-0 away at Leverkusen last matchday, extending their winless run in the league to five matches (D2, L3). With only one win from their last nine competitive matches (D3, L5), they are struggling for momentum.
Challenging for the hosts, they have just one win from their last six home matches in all competitions (D2, L3) after a 1-1 draw against St Pauli in their last fixture at this venue.
Union won 3-1 at home against Leipzig last weekend, which was a crucial win against a top-half team. They have now won eight points from their last six league games (W2, D2, L2) and are aiming to move away from the relegation zone.
There is still work to do on the road, where Union lost three of their recent four games in the Bundesliga (W1), with the lone victory coming against St Pauli.

Our Köln vs Union Berlin Prediction
Just two points separate these sides ahead of this round, but Union have been showing better signs of form. They have lost only two of their six recent league games, although their away form is yet to show signs of improvement. Koln could have pounced on that stat, but their own form at home has been shaky. With only one win from their last six competitive home games, Koln have been struggling to close out games.
Both teams will fancy getting on the board, and our Koln vs Union Berlin prediction is BTTS.
