    Season Form & Standings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Both teams are mid-table with negative goal differences. Freiburg have a slightly higher win percentage and four more points, but neither side has found consistency. Koln\u2019s defence has been marginally leakier, while Freiburg\u2019s attack has created more touches inside the box, but their conversion is similar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
