Borussia Mönchengladbach v 1. FC Köln - Bundesliga
1. FC Köln will host Leipzig - Bundesliga

Koln will host RB Leipzig at the RheinEnergieStadion on Friday in another round of the 2023-24 Bundesliga campaign.

The home side have struggled to impress this season and are currently fighting to stay in the German top-flight. They played out an entertaining 3-3 draw against Borussia Monchengladbach in their last match, with 19-year-old Damion Downs coming off the bench to level the scores for the Billy Goats with his first-ever professional goal.

Koln sit 16th in the league table with 18 points from 25 matches. They are five points above Darmstadt and will be looking to widen that gap this weekend.

RB Leipzig are enjoying a solid run of results in the league at the moment and are now pushing for the UEFA Champions League spots. They picked up a comfortable 2-0 win over last-placed Darmstadt last time out, taking the lead in the first half via an own goal before Christoph Baumgartner doubled their advantage early in the second half.

The visitors sit fifth in the table with 46 points picked up so far and will be looking to add to that tally when they play on Friday.
