💭 Prediction

We’re thinking that Mannheim should be able to put a goal past this Viktoria Cologne side, but one goal possibly won’t be as many as they will have scored against them.

We’re therefore tipping a very close game with a 1-2 victory for Viktoria Cologne when the full-time whistle blows. Looking forward to seeing how this one unfolds.
