Cologne, Germany (My Sportsbook) - Koln's miserable start to the season has continued following confirmation that Adil Chihi is facing a lengthy spell on the sidelines.

The Morocco international striker has been ruled out for at least four weeks following ankle surgery.

Chihi limped out of last weekend's 2-1 defeat to Schalke which left Zvonimir Soldo's side bottom of the Bundesliga table after picking up just one point from their first five games.

Koln have scored just three league goals all season, with the 21-year-old striker claiming one of those.
