📏 Form Guide

Augsburg

LWDLLL 📉

Augsburg will be looking for an improved result here following the 4-0 Bundesliga defeat in their last game at the hands of Stuttgart.

In that match, Augsburg had 28% possession and 7 attempts on goal with 0 on target. At the other end, Stuttgart got 29 shots at goal with 11 on target. Atakan Karazor (8'), Nick Woltemade (51'), Enzo Millot (80') and Ermedin Demirović (87') scored for Stuttgart.

Augsburg have been quite ineffective in attack in recent times. Their ‘goals for’ figure stands at just 4 against opponents over their previous six fixtures. In those meetings, Augsburg have also seen the number of goals scored against them total 13.

• have not been beaten in the league by Union Berlin in their previous 9 games. Quite a long unbeaten run against them.
• have not won at home in their last 3 matches in the league.

Union Berlin

WDDDDL

Since being defeated in their last game at the hands of Heidenheim in Bundesliga action, Union Berlin will be hoping to turn things around here.

Steffen Baumgart's Union Berlin have had reason to celebrate scoring a total of 8 times throughout their most recent 6 matches. The aggregate of goals that they have conceded during those same clashes equals 10.

Taking a look at their past results, Union Berlin:

• are undefeated in their last 4 away league matches.
• are without an away win for the past 2 matches in the league.

📰 Team News: Augsburg

Mergim Berisha (Thigh problems), Noahkai Banks (Fitness), Yusuf Kabadayi (Knee surgery), Reece Oxford (Fitness), Fredrik Jensen (Knock) and Marius Wolf (Abdominal muscle strain) won’t be available for Augsburg gaffer Jess Thorup.

In all likelihood, Augsburg look set to use the 3-4-2-1 system, handing starts to Finn Dahmen, Chrislain Matsima, Jeffrey Gouweleeuw, Cedric Zesiger, Robert Gumny, Frank Onyeka, Kristijan Jakic, Dimitrios Giannoulis, Mert Komur, A. Claude Maurice and Phillip Tietz.

🗞️ Team News: Union Berlin

Union Berlin manager Steffen Baumgart has to currently contend with reduced team options. Robert Skov (Foot injury), Jérôme Roussillon (Knock), Woo-yeong Jeong (Ankle injury), Aljoscha Kemlein (Foot surgery) and Diogo Leite (Head injury) won’t be making appearances.

We are inclined to think that Union could decide to begin the game with a 3-5-2 system with a starting lineup of Frederik Rønnow, Danilho Doekhi, Leopold Querfeld, Kevin Vogt, Christopher Trimmel, Lászlo Bénes, Rani Khedira, Janik Haberer, Tom Rothe, Benedict Hollerbach and Tim Skarke.

💡 Prediction

In our view, Union Berlin are capable enough to put one past this Augsburg team, however that probably shouldn’t be enough to prevent defeat.

We reckon that it will be a close game with a 2-1 winning score for Augsburg at full-time.
