As Viktoria Koln and RW Essen meet again, the memory of Viktoria Koln's 2-1 win in their 3 Liga encounter from 7 months ago still lingers. Viktoria Koln are in a rough patch, heading into this clash after suffering defeats to Erzgebirge Aue and Saarbrucken, extending their winless streak to three games.
