Match Preview

Linton Maina's first-half goal proved enough to earn FC Köln all three points in gameweek 20 as Die Geißböcke beat Wolfsburg on home soil. With two victories from their last three games, Lukas Kwasniok's side have climbed to 10th, five points clear of the relegation play-off spot.

RB Leipzig travel to the RheinEnergieSTADION looking to avenge a crushing 2-1 home defeat to Urs Fischer's resurgent Mainz 05 side last time out. The visitors have dropped to fourth after winning just one of their last four Bundesliga fixtures.
