Dynamo Dresden vs Energie Cottbus, 13 December 2026, 2. Bundesliga: form, head-to-head and match facts

Dynamo Dresden host Energie Cottbus in what promises to be a pivotal clash for both sides. Dresden sit 17th with just four points from six games, having scored only eight while conceding 14, and will be desperate to close the gap at the bottom. Cottbus, occupying seventh place, have collected eight points, their two wins and two draws balanced by a modest goal difference of +1 (14‑13). The two teams have already met earlier in the season, and the result could prove decisive for Dresden’s survival hopes and Cottbus’s push for a top‑half finish. Both sides will be keen to turn their recent form around as the league race tightens.
