COLOGNE WIN THE DERBY!

It's a 2021/22 derby double for the Billy Goats, who scored all three goals in the first half. How Gladbach will be lamenting their lax defensive showing during the first 45.

LEMPERLE!

Lemperle's through on goal, but his first touch isn't the best and Sommer gets a hand to it. The Cologne sub misses the target on the rebound.

MODESTE THE MAN

Modeste makes way for Lemperle. He's now on 16 goals for the current Bundesliga campaign. Only Lewandowski (32), Schick (20), Haaland (18) and Nkunku (17) have scored more.

Four minutes for Gladbach to rescue something from the derby...

OH, EMBOLO!

Gladbach pull one back with five minutes of normal time to go. Embolo is onto a long ball over the top, holding off Killian in the box and firing past the advancing Schwäbe. It's not over yet!

Gladbach have not had their aim in today, unlike Cologne, who've been pretty clinical.

LIKE-FOR-LIKE CHANGES

Baumgart doesn't want to let Gladbach back in this. On come Schaub, Duda and Schmitz, with Ljubicic, Uth and Ehizibue making way.
77'

CHANCE!

The red shirts are queuing up in the six-yard box as Skihiri meets Hector's left-wing free-kick on the volley, but it's straight at Sommer. Either side of the goalkeeper, and that surely would have been a fourth Cologne goal.
75'

STINDL ON

Benes has only been on the pitch a matter of minutes, but is in some discomfort. That's a muscle injury. Stindl is his replacement.
73'

BUTTER FINGERS

Embolo is milimeteres from flicking in Bensebaini's free-kick. Schwäbe fumbles, before gathering at the second attempt.
67'

SCISSOR-KICK!

Modeste meets a Thielmann cross with an ambitious volley, the Frenchman directing his effort down Sommer's throat from 15 yards.
64'

SHOT ON TARGET

Embolo is the catalyst again with some strong hold-up play on the edge of the box. He finds Netz to his left, but the Gladbach sub sends his first-time strike straight at Schwäbe.
62'

FRESH LEGS

Kainz was unplayable in the first half, but has tired since the restart. Thielmann - a natural wide player - is on.
60'

CLOSE!

Embolo shows tremendous strength to hold of his man and feed the run of Hofmann. Gladbach's top scorer connects first time, but the shot goes agonisingly wide of the far post. Those two look like the Foals' best route to a goal.

AIMING HIGH

Cologne are up to sixth in the live table, though the two teams directly below them - Hoffenheim and Union Berlin - don't play until Sunday.
51'

MUCH IMPROVED

Gladbach are already winning a lot more of the second balls than they did in the first half. They're pressing hard as Embolo and Netz see goal-bound shots charged down. A goal in the next 10 minutes or so would give them real belief...
49'

SIGHT OF GOAL

Ljubicic's shot is blocked behind for a corner by Netz. Uth finds Hector from the set-piece, but the Cologne captain can't direct his header on target.
47'

TALKING TACTICS

Hütter brings on the defensively minded Kramer for Neuhaus in central midfield. He also gives Lainer the hook, with Netz entering the fray. He'll go to left-back, with Scally on the right and Beyer and Bensebaini in the middle.

Boos greet the half-time whistle. Gladbach very much second best at the break. Cologne have been brilliant.

TAKES ONE FOR THE TEAM

Kone is booked after scything down Özcan on halfway. He had to because the Cologne midfielder would have been away.
39'

GINTER INJURED

Ginter, who may well have been in a position to pick up Ljubicic, had he not been clattered by Kainz, makes way. Scally comes on, with Bensebaini moving into the centre of defence.
36'

GOAL STANDS!

No foul given against Kainz. Ljubicic was completely unmarked on the edge of the box as he collected Modeste's pass following an incisive two-on-one attack. Hütter's not happy - his side have been all over the shop defensively.
35'

COLOGNE IN DREAMLAND!

Ljubicic fires in a third on the break, but there'll be a VAR check for a possible foul in the build-up. Kainz did appear to go in with a high boot on Ginter at the start of that move...

COLOGNE DOUBLE THEIR LEAD!

Derby delight for the visitors! Plea is dispossessed just inside the Gladbach half. Cologne work it quickly as Skhiri sends Uth towards the by-line. He cuts it back to the unmarked Kainz, who started the move, to send a routine finish past Sommer.

HALF CHANCE

Cologne expose the Gladbach defence once more, but Modeste's cross is too close to Sommer. The visitors are pressing hard and to great effect.
16'

WIDE!

Difficult one for Kainz as he comes in off the left, tracked all the way by Lainer, before firing wide of Sommer's far post. Not easy to get the necessary whip on the ball when you're moving like that.
14'

EMBOL-NO!

Better from Gladbach. They're quick turning defence into attack as Embolo and Hofmann combine to feed Plea in the box. Depite being surrounded by three red shirts, he manages to play a pass back to Embolo, who draws a diving save from Schwäbe with a side-footed strike from 18 yards.
11'

OFF THE MARK

Uth, who was on target in the reverse fixture, comes in off the left-hand side, before firing over the top of Sommer's goal. Very open start to the derby.
9'

SIGNS OF LIFE

Gladbach respond as Embolo picks out Plea in the middle, but Ehizibue is there to block. Plea blazes over moments later.
5'

COLOGNE LEAD!

Ginter heads the ensung corner straight at Schwäbe, who bowls it out to the left-hand side. Kainz picks up possession in the final third, before sending in a low cross that Modeste dispatches with a fabulous first-time finish.

BAUMGART WARY OF RESURGENT FOALS

"Gladbach are a quality side," warned Cologne head coach Steffen Baumgart. "They've had some bad luck with injuries, but players have been coming back and the fact they've taken 10 points from their last four games shows they've turned a corner. It'll be intense, but we're here to win."

WATCH: COLOGNE 4-1 GLADBACH

Cologne took the derby spoils earlier this season. They also won 2-1 in Mönchengladbach last term.

HÜTTER WELCOMES DERBY ATMOSPHERE

"Football is inspiring, emotional and these feelings are infectious," commented Gladbach head coach Adi Hütter in his pre-match press conference. "I love the passion in this sport. This will be the first game in front of more than 50,000 fans at Borussia-Park for over two years and it will be something special. I'm looking forward to a great atmosphere and a game in which anything could happen. I hope that in the end we will prevail. It is a hugely important game for all involved. We will take to the pitch with our best team and do everything we can to fight for the three points. Winning is the only thing that counts. On top of that, we want to continue the good run that we are currently on."

COLOGNE TEAM NEWS

Billy Goats boss Baumgart has brought in three new faces in the wake of the Matchday 29 victory over Mainz. Hübers returns from suspension, while Özcan and Ljubicic also both come in. Jannes Horn, Chabot and Duda are the ones to make way.

GLADBACH TEAM NEWS

Head coach Adi Hütter has made two changes to his side following last week's win over Fürth. Thuram (injured) and Scally (bench) both make way for Hofmann, who make his first appearance for six weeks, and Bensebaini.

WATCH: PREVIOUS MEETING: COLOGNE 4-1 GLADBACH

After a goalless first half on Matchday 13, the game really came to life in the closing stages as Cologne scored three times in the final 13 minutes to secure all three points.

HEAD-TO-HEAD

History is very much on Gladbach's side in this fixture, with the Foals winning 51 of the 93 Bundesliga meetings to date, exactly twice the amount that Cologne have won (16 draws). However, the Billy Goats have had the upper hand of late, triumphing in the two most recent encounters (4-1 and 2-1).

WATCH: RHINE DERBIES EXPLAINED

Aside from points being at stake today it's also a Rhine derby. Watch on to find out more about the rivalry between Rhine neighbours Bayer Leverkusen, Borussia Mönchengladbach and Cologne as they duel for regional supremacy in north-west Germany.

THE STAKES

Hosts Gladbach find themselves somewhat in no-man's-land at present: they're 10 points clear of the relegation zone going into the weekend, but are seven adrift of the European places. A late charge up the table is certainly possible, but they'd need to win today, with matches running out. No easy task against Rhine rivals Cologne, who are just one point outside the top six and looking very stable under head coach Steffen Baumgart.
