Team News

Darmstadt
FC Koln
  • Florian Kohfeldt could make one change to the side that faced Karlsruher with Killian Corredor replacing Philipp Förster.
  • Oliver Vilhelmsson is closing in on a return to action, but Darmstadt still have four confirmed absentees for the visit of FC Köln.
  • Expect one change from Gerhard Struber on Friday evening with Jan Thielmann returning to the line-up at right-back.
  • Illness is expected to keep Dejan Ljubicic out of the squad this weekend, while Jacob Christensen, Luca Kilian and Mark Uth are all recovering from injuries.

Prediction

  • Darmstadt came from 2-1 down to lead 3-2 against Karlsruher two weeks ago, but a late goal from Fabian Schleusener sent this weekend's hosts home with just a point. No side has claimed fewer points than Florian Kohfeldt's side on home soil this season ahead of the visit of FC Köln.
  • Gerhard Struber has been on the wrong end of some bad luck upon FC Köln's return to the 2.Bundesliga. Friday's visitors have been the bigger attacking threat in almost every league outing this season, but have just three victories to show for their 20 second-tier goals in 2024/25.
