Köln BATE betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This bout puts face-to-face two teams that live very different realities within European football, but have been making surprising campaigns so far in the Europa League. Koln has made a great campaign in the last edition of the German Championship, finishing in the fifth position, but this season has left much to be desired, having a poor performance. 
BATE Borisov, meanwhile, comes from a country with no tradition in this sport, but it is the Group H runners-up who managed to overcome Koln in the last round. However, since Koln now plays at home, the Belarussians will have more difficulty. 
Thus, we expect a very balanced match, being a good option to bet on a game of few goals.

Preview
Köln and BATE meet at RheinEnergieStadion, in a match for this stage of the UEFA Europa League (Group Stage). In this match the home advantage may play an important role, since BATE presents significant differences between home and away performances.

Analysis Köln

After 3 losses, the home team is currently in the 4th position, with no points won. In the last match, they have lost (1‑0) in an away match against BATE, after in the previous round they have lost (0‑1) at home against Crvena Zvezda. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 5 draws and 7 losses in away matches; against 5 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses at their stadium. In their last match, for the Bundesliga, they got an away loss against Bayer Leverkusen by (2‑1). In the last 10 home matches Köln has won 2, tied 3 and lost 5. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. They haven't been able to score the first goal. In fact, they have only opened up the score in 3 of the last 12 matches, they have reached half‑time in advantage in all of those 3 matches and have held on to the lead in 1. They have conceded the first goal in 7 of their 12 matches, and have never been able to turn the score around. there is 1 period that stands out in the last 6 home matches for all competitions: they have suffered 4 of their 7 goals between minutes (16'‑30').

Koln is going through a very difficult time this season as they have conquered just one win in the last twelve matches and now they are coming from another defeat for the German Championship where they are in the last position. At the time, the team had only 31% of ball possession, missed many passes and finished half the opponent's time, thus showing problems in the offensive sector. The numbers of this competition indicate that the team has been characterized by inefficiency in both sectors: the attack is the second worst, and the defense is the second most leaked. This has been repeated in the Europa League, where it has the worst numbers of Group H, being in the last position without having scored any point. 
Probably the coach will keep the team in the 4-4-2, with Özcan in the midfield.

Confirmed Lineup: Timo Horn, Frederik Sørensen, Konstantin Rausch, Dominic Maroh, Dominique Heintz, Matthias Lehmann, Christian Clemens, Salih Özcan, Leonardo Bittencourt, Sehrou Guirassy, Simon Zoller.
Coach: S. Baumgart.

Analysis BATE

The away team is currently in the 2nd position, with 4 points won, after 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss. In the penultimate round, they have lost a home match against Arsenal by (2‑4). In the last round, they have won a home match against Köln by (1‑0). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 10 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses in away matches, with 30 goals scored and 8 conceded; against 8 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 23 goals scored and 16 conceded. In their last match, for the Premier League, they got a home tie against Naftan by (1‑1). In the last 10 away matches BATE has won 7, tied 1 and lost 2. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 4 of the last 5 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 5 matches for this competition. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 5 times but have turned the score around in 2.

BATE Borisov can be in a very comfortable situation in Group H of the Europa League if they win this match. For this, the team tries to continue the current good stage, since it has been undefeated for five matches, having accumulated four consecutive victories and conceded only two goals in that period. 
Its last game was for the Belorussian Championship, where it now occupies the third position. Based on the numbers of the national championship, it is possible to state that the team is characterized by a very efficient attack, with an average of 1.66 goal per game, while its defense is among the three least leaked. This has been maintaining in a certain way in the Europa League, although it has the most leaked defense of its group, next to Koln. However, its last continental clash against the Germans showed a very consistent defense, which helped to secure the win, as the attack was not very good and ended with a 39 percent of ball possession. 
Who has been doing good performances regularly is right-back Rios, who should be among the starting eleven for this match.

Confirmed Lineup: Denis Scherbitski, Denis Polyakov, Vitali Gayduchik, Nemanja Milunović, Alexei Rios, Stanislav Dragun, Aleksandr Volodko, Mirko Ivanić, Igor Stasevich, Mikhail Gordejchuk, Nikolai Signevich.
Coach: I. Kriushenko.
