Week 34 brings us a match on May 14th where Stuttgart hosts Köln in a meeting of these two Bundesliga teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 18 degrees, a perfect day for football. In their last match, Stuttgart recorded a 2-2 draw against Bayern München. Tiago Tomás scored the first goal for Stuttgart in the 8th minute, but Konstantinos Mavropanos got the equalizer for Bayern München on an own goal in the 35th minute . Stuttgart is looking for direction having earned 11 points in their last 10 matches, while köln sits at 7th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 0-1 loss against Wolfsburg. Yannick Gerhardt struck first for Wolfsburg in the 43rd minute on a feed from Jonas Older Wind, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster In the end, Köln was frustrated by Wolfsburg’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Wolfsburg ended the match with the shutout victory. With 17 points in their last 10 matches Köln should be reasonably happy with their performance.
On the 19th of December, Köln hosted Stuttgart in their last match together. Köln won by a score of 1 to 0 in front of almost 15000 jubilant fans. Anthony Modeste scored the first goal for Köln in the 89th minute, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring At the end of 90 a dissapointed Stuttgart couldn’t manage to score, and Köln took the shutout win.
Anthony Modeste has been on a hot streak lately. In the last 5 games, hes scored four goals for Köln. Chris Führich and Sasa Kalajdzic are the top scorers for Stuttgart in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal.
