In the penultimate game week of the 2021-22 Bundesliga season this weekend, Koln will host Wolfsburg at the Deutsche Bank Park on Saturday afternoon.

Koln are enjoying a good spell at the moment and have their sight on European football next season. They picked up an impressive 4-1 win over Augsburg last time out, opening the game with a quickfire double, before Anthony Modeste scored a second-half brace to wrap up the points.

The Billy Goats are sixth in the Bundesliga standings with 52 points from 32 games. They will look to continue their strong run this weekend to keep their continental ambitions alive.

Wolfsburg, meanwhile, have had a campaign to forget and will look forward to next season. They were held to a 1-1 draw by relegation-threatened Stuttgart last time out, with John Brooks' early opener getting cancelled out late in the game.

Koln are on a four-game winning streak and have lost just one of their last seven games. They are unbeaten in their last three home matches and will look to maximise their home advantage on Saturday.

Wolfsburg, meanwhile, are unbeaten in back-to-back games. They are, however, winless in their last five matches on the road and could lose this weekend.
