Full-time: Cologne 1-0 Schalke
With their sixth 1-0 victory of the season, Cologne successfully maintain top spot in the Bundesliga 2. Across an extremely tight match, the Billy Goats benefitted from an individual Schalke error leading to the winning goal. Thereafter, it was an evenly balanced game with chances on both sides. On balance, Cologne's win is probably deserved.

Karaman can't reach it!
Huge chance: Antwi-Adjei crosses from the left side to Kalas, who heads the ball against Schwäbe's direction from five metres out. Karaman then tries to poke the ball over the line, but can't quite reach it with his toe!

Another clean sheet?
For Cologne, this would be a ninth match in the second division this season without conceding a goal – the most in Bundesliga 2.
87'
Still hope?
Schalke are looking for a gap, but Cologne's defensive line remains solid. There's still plenty of time on the clock.
84'
Just wide!
Cologne quickly counter-attack and Paqarada has a shooting opportunity from the edge of the penalty area, but his low shot whistles past the right post!
81'
Full offensive
Younes and Antwi-Adjei strengthen the Royal Blues attack. Van Wonderen wants to force the equaliser and switches to an extremely offensive formation.
80'
Digging deep
Cologne are content to sit a bit deeper and allow Schalke to come forward. Maina and Thielmann are lurking on the wings, waiting for counter-attacking opportunities.
78'
Close again!
Substitute Thielmann is on the right wing for the first time and whips in a dangerous cross to the near post. Maina is lurking there but can't direct his diving header on target.
75'
Cross or shot?
The nimble Maina is off and away once again, outpacing his opponent on the left before cutting inside. From the edge of the penalty area, he aims for the far corner, but his attempt is neither a shot on goal nor a cross and goes wide right by several metres.
72'
Unsportsmanlike conduct
First Downs fouls Murkin, then he kicks the ball away. Yellow card!
71'
Schalke improving
In the last few minutes, the visitors are getting back into the game. The triple substitution seems to be having an effect. The ball is moving well now.

Triple substitution for Schalke
Van Wonderen brings fresh impetus to the game and introduces Barkok, Gantenbein and Hamache.
61'
Cologne dominating
The home side are now well on top. Schalke are struggling to find any answers at this stage and are almost exclusively occupied with defending.
57'
Ljubicic struggling
Struber makes a double substitution, with the Austrian being replaced due to injury.
54'
Nearly 2-0!
Maina dribbles with pace down the right flank into the penalty area. He plays the ball across to Ljubicic, who is impeded as he attempts to finish. This allows Heekeren to collect the ball.
51'
Solid start from the home side
With a goal in the bag and half-time behind them, Cologne are now taking control of the match. They appear more confident than they did in the first period.
49'
The first of many?
Nineteen-year-old Telle celebrates his professional debut today. The half-time substitute has previously been with Cologne's reserves in the Regionalliga West.
46'
We're back underway!
We're back in action as Cologne kick off. Captain Martel has had to remain behind in the dressing room due to injury, with youngster Telle coming on in his place.

Half-time: Cologne 1-0 Schalke
Neither team is playing well, here. Few shots on goal and a terrible pass completion rate on both sides tell a pretty accurate story. Aydin's mistake before Downs' goal has proved the only difference in this match so far. But everything's to play for. We'll be back shortly!

Downs capitalises on Schalke gift!
Aydin casually tries to chest down a cross to Heekeren, but fails to spot Maina behind him. The latter nips in quickly and pokes the ball to Downs, who slots it into the empty net. What a gift!

Curler!
Olesen attempts a a long ball to Downs, but scuffs it. The mishit almost catches Heekeren off guard, but the latter manages to claw it out of the left corner.

Ljubicic stumbles
Maina breaks into the left side of the penalty area and plays a low ball across the box. By chance, it falls to Ljubicic, who has a clear shot from about 10 metres out. However, seemingly caught by surprise, he can't get his feet sorted in time and misses the opportunity to shoot.

Schmied goes too far
As Cologne look to counter-attack, Schalke goalkeeper Heekeren comes charging out to the halfway line and slides the ball away from Maina. The Billy Goats cry foul and Schmied receives a yellow card for overdoing it.
33'
So close!
A free-kick from the halfway line is flicked on by Karaman into the path of Kamiński, who manages to get a shot off from five metres out, to the right of the goal. Schwäbe narrows the angle well and is able to make the save.

9'
Striving for control
Cologne are trying to get a foothold in the game with some calmer build-up play. However, the Billy Goats don't seem to be entirely comfortable on the ball.

Schalke in charge
Are Cologne still feeling the effects of their midweek cup battle? In the opening minutes, they appear very passive. The Royal Blues, on the other hand, are turning up the heat and dominating possession.
3'
Missed the moment
Mohr intercepts a pass and dribbles down the left into the penalty area. He briefly has a clear shot on goal, but turns away again and then loses the ball. The chance fizzles out.

Kick-off!

Four changes for the Royal Blues

Cologne with three changes
FC coach Gerhard Struber makes three changes to his starting line-up compared to the last match (2-3 defeat after extra time in the DFB Cup quarter-final in Leverkusen): Gazibegović, Paqarada and Olesen start in place of Finkgräfe, Thielmann (both on the bench) and Hübers (suspended due to yellow cards).

Kees van Wonderen on facing Cologne
"We're facing a good team that are top of the table for a reason. They are organised, good in transition and physically strong. We're preparing for that and travelling there with confidence."
Gerhard Struber on facing Schalke
"We're facing one big challenge after another. Now the next one lies ahead of us, and that's where our focus is. We're taking many good things from the cup fight, and at the same time, we need to lift ourselves and look forward to the next highlight."
Successful striker
Tim Lemperle has scored in his last two matches against Schalke (for Cologne and Fürth).
Schalke also with good memories
Schalke's last league victory against Cologne was a 3-1 away win under André Breitenreiter in March 2016. Since then, however, the Royal Blues have prevailed twice more against the Billy Goats in the DFB Cup (1-0 at home in 2017, away on penalties in 2018).
Favourite opponents
Cologne won the reverse fixture 3-1 and have not lost any of their last 11 league matches against Schalke (six wins, five draws). Effzeh have claimed more victories against the Royal Blues (40) than against any other team in the Bundesliga.
A match with Bundesliga feel
After 90 Bundesliga encounters, these two giants are playing together in Bundesliga 2 for the first time this season.
