Bayern Munich travel to the RheinEnergieStadion on Wednesday night, riding a wave of dominance both in the Bundesliga and in this particular fixture.

With Bayern’s attack firing on all cylinders and K\u00f6ln facing defensive woes, the stage is set for a one-sided contest\u2014but can the hosts spring a surprise?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

    Both Teams to Score: No<\/strong><\/td>\n11\/8 @ Bet365<\/a>
    (38.5%)<\/td>\n    		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nBayern have kept 8 clean sheets in 16 games and conceded only 12 goals (0.75 per game). K\u00f6ln have drawn blanks in several recent head-to-heads and average just 1.5 goals per game this season.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
    Serge Gnabry Anytime Assist<\/strong><\/td>\n2\/1 @ Bet365<\/a>
    (33.3%)<\/td>\n    		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nBayern lead the league with 47 assists in 16 matches, and Gnabry is regularly involved in their attacking build-up. With Harry Kane also excelling as a creator, expect space and service from wide areas.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n
