GAME OVER !
The roars sound out around Borussia-Park! Gladbach have triumphed in the Rhine Derby against Cologne with something to spare. The visitors were neck and neck with the Foals until Kainz's first-half sending off. From that point on, Borussia took control and they were worthy of the three points that takes them to sixth in the standings.

THURAM ON TARGET
Thuram scores ! The Gladbach striker has had enough chances in this game to score and he finally gets a goal, connecting with Plea's centre with the outside of a boot to send the ball high into the net. Gladbach lost 5-1 last weekend. They're winning 5-2 here!

GAME ON?
Well now. Gladbach fail to clear their lines and the ball is allowed to bounce all the way to Huseinbasic, who takes a touch with his head before slamming home from close range. Are Cologne back in this?

BENSEBAINI MAKES SURE
There's number four. The Foals flick it about outside the area before working the ball wide to Hofmann, who centres for Bensebaini. The Algerian has the simplest of tasks to finish from close range. That's his second of the day.

GLADBACH GOING SIXTH
The Foals are content to roll it around here as their fans sing their appreciation. Should they see this one out, and it looks very likely they will, Daniel Farke's men will be up to sixth in the standings, level on points with Werder Bremen, who took today's hosts to town last weekend.

THURAM DENIED
Oooh, so close to four. Hofmann rifles in a cross in from the right and it looks to be on a plate for Thuram, who lets the ball run across his body and fails to make a touch. That was a big opportunity for the French forward.

SENSATIONAL STINDL
What an absolute hit from Lars Stindl !! The Gladbach No.13 takes control of the ball after all sorts of messing around in possession from both teams. He has a look up and batters a shot from downtown past Schwäbe. The stadium erupts.

HALF TIME
Take a deep breath. That was INTENSE! Borussia hit the front with a Friedrich header only for Cologne to strike back from the spot shortly afterwards, Kainz converting. The Billy-Goats' goalscorer then got himself into all sorts of bother, conceding a penalty at the other end and then being shown a second yellow card. Bensebaini subsequently put the home side back in front! It's been a Rhine Derby to remember thus far!

Cologne look to clear and with both Kainz and Hofmann watching a dropping ball inside the area, the former muscles in on his opponent with a bit too much force. Penalty, says the ref.

Thuram runs and runs and then runs some more. The France forward cuts outside and has a look at the target. He's aiming to score a worldie here. Alas, his shot curls over the crossbar.

SET-PIECES KEY?
Corners might have a big role to play in today's encounter at Borussia-Park. The hosts are the No.1 team in the Bundesliga in terms of the danger they create from corners, the Foals a full 59% above the league average. Cologne, meanwhile, are the third-best team in the division when it comes to creating danger from corner kicks.
GLADBACH TEAM NEWS
Just like their opponents today, Gladbach have also named the same starting 11 to that which began on Matchday 8. In fact, this is the third game in a row in which Daniel Farke's Foals remain unchanged.

BILLY-GOATS BOUNCING
In terms of their Bundesliga form, Cologne followed a 1-1 draw away to Bochum with last weekend's fantastic 3-2 win against Borussia Dortmund. If the visitors manage to pull off a victory here, they would go level on points with Bayern Munich and Dortmund in the top-flight standings.
WOUNDED FOALS
Gladbach were ticking along nicely under Daniel Farke, until they suffered a tonking at the hands of Werder Bremen last time out. A 5-1 reverse at the Weserstadion will have caused the Foals to wobble and how they will react today is one of the fascinating sub plots to this encounter.
WELCOME ALONG !!
We're all set for a super Bundesliga Sunday and to kick-start the action, we've got a fine footballing prospect for you: Cologne at Glaadbach in the Rhine derby. So settle in and let us deliver you all of the pre-match chatter right here.
