Bookmaker Ratings Prediction One: Dortmund to Win – 2.07
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Two: Under 3.5 Goals – 1.55
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Three: Dortmund to Score the First Goal – 1.71
Dortmund to Win
Winning five of their seven games in the Bundesliga makes Dortmund favorites to win this game by a probability of 67%. Moreover, playing on the road Dortmund won two of their three fixtures. Koln meanwhile won just one of their three home games in the Bundesliga this term.
Under 3.5 Goals
In four of Koln’s seven Bundesliga fixtures, under 3.5 goals were scored. On the other side, Dortmund’s games saw low-scoring games mostly with five of them producing three or fewer goals. Since the start of the season, Dortmund’s games had 2.29 goals per game while Koln’s games averaged a total of 2.71 goals per game.
Dortmund to Score the First Goal
One of Koln’s weaknesses this season is that they concede first in most of their games, five out of seven in the Bundesliga to be exact. Dortmund meanwhile were the first scorer in five of their even fixtures. In addition in the previous three h2hs, Dortmund took the initiative and took the lead first.

Preliminary Review and Statistics for 1/ FC Köln vs Borussia Dortmund
Koln
After seven rounds, Koln have gathered ten points from two wins and four draws and are taking the ninth position on the Bundesliga table for the season 2022/23. That is two points fewer than they had last season at this stage when they had won one more game. The Billy Goat were relatively off to a fine start winning two ad drawing three of their opening five games.
Steffan Baumgart’s men suffered their first defeat in the sixth round and in their last outing drew away to Bochum. Notably, in three of the four matches that Koln drew, they had to come back from being in a losing position. That means that Koln are a fighting team and won’t settle for a loss and battle till the end.
Borussia Dortmund
Borussia Dortmund find themselves in the second position on the Bundesliga table with 15 points despite losing two of their seven fixtures. That is the exact same tally of points the Yellow and Blacks had after seven rounds in the previous two seasons. However, there is a huge difference between the goals scored this season and that of the previous ones.
In detail, coach Edin Terzic’s team has the weakest offense among the top seven teams with only Mainz weaker than them in the top ten. Still, Dortmund are making up for it with their strong defense that have recorded four clean sheets so far in the season, three of them in the last four.
Koln vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction
This will be a tough trip for Dortmund still they have not lost in Koln in their past six, winning two and drawing four. In conclusion, we will back Dortmund to win this game and stay intact at the top of the table.

Dortmund’s last four games saw goals from one team, overall five of their matches in the league saw the same trend. The stats are showing a 65% chance that BTTS will not happen in this match. As a result, we will back BTTS not to happen in this game for which 22Bet is offering odds of 2.48.
