Augsburg host FC Cologne at WWK Arena, Augsburg on Saturday, Dec 5 at 3:30 PM in the Bundesliga.

Augsburg come into this fixture in mixed form (2W 1D 1L). FC Cologne travel out of form (1W 2L recently), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

Head-to-head records offer little separation — Augsburg and FC Cologne have split their 10 meetings almost evenly (3W–3D–4W). Their last encounter ended in Augsburg won 2–0.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Augsburg a slight edge, but FC Cologne are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
