Match preview

Bayern Munich continue to rack up wins even after already clinching the Bundesliga title. In their latest outing, they edged Wolfsburg 1–0, bringing an end to a brief spell of three matches without a victory.

Overall, the Bavarians remain in outstanding form, losing just once in their last 23 games across all competitions — that defeat coming against PSG in the Champions League. Domestically, they have been completely dominant, sitting 16 points clear of Borussia Dortmund with 86 points, 117 goals scored, and only 35 conceded.

Their home record has been equally impressive, with 13 wins, two draws, and just one defeat this season. However, attention is already partly shifting toward the DFB-Pokal final against Stuttgart, which could lead to some rotation or a slightly reduced intensity in this fixture.

Historically, Bayern have also enjoyed this matchup at home, remaining unbeaten in their last six meetings with Köln in Munich, winning five of them.

Köln arrive in a far less stable condition, struggling for consistency in the closing stages of the campaign. They are without a win in four straight matches and have collected just one victory in their last 13 outings.

Still, the visitors have done enough to secure survival, currently sitting 14th with a six-point gap above the relegation zone. Their biggest issue has been defensive instability, with Köln conceding in 13 consecutive matches. On the other hand, they have managed to score in each of their last nine games, meaning both teams have found the net regularly in their recent fixtures.

In terms of head-to-head, Köln have historically struggled against Bayern, failing to win in eight consecutive meetings and generally finding it difficult to compete against the league leaders.

Bayern: Urbig, Stanisic, Kim, Ito, Bischof, Goretzka, Kimmich, Karl, Olise, Diaz, Jackson

Köln: Schwäbe, Lund, Ozkacar, Schmied, Sebulonsen, Krauss, Johannesson, Kaminski, Bulter, El Mala, Maina
