Match preview

Cologne are pulling away from the Bundesliga drop zone in style, swatting aside Wolfsburg, Freiburg and Hertha Berlin since the turn of the year.

Those wins - the latest a 5-0 mauling in the German capital - have continued a run of six wins in eight games. The only sides they have failed to beat are Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich.

While Cologne are in carnival mood, the feeling at Schalke is one of misery as the Royal Blues have one win in their last six, drawing four blanks, and their poor form may continue.

Key stat

Schalke have managed only four away wins in this term's Bundesliga.
