The two teams value close to, their land could closed the host team. However, Freiburg prevailed over the last four direct meetings, but the latest dating game 1 year and a half ago. Meanwhile changed more in the group that matches the guests and for this reason, I think they will prefer to defend itself, and be content with a point. On the other hand, Cologne and she defends well and is hard to see the show.
