We said: Mainz 05 1-1 FC Koln

There is very little to split these two sides - who have both hugely improved in the last 18 months or so - and as such we can envisage a share of the spoils on Friday. Although the incentive of moving up to a top-four position may spur both teams on to go for the win, neither are likely to be too disappointed with avoiding defeat in the end. Read more.
