Augsburg

LDDWDW

Augsburg, who won their previous game, will hope for a similar result following the 0-1 Bundesliga victory over Borussia Dortmund.

In that game, Augsburg had 28% possession and 6 attempts at goal with 1 on target. The only player to score for Augsburg was Jeffrey Gouweleeuw (23'). Borussia Dortmund got 14 shots at goal with 1 of them on target.

Games involving Augsburg have been pretty frustrating affairs recently with a barren goal landscape being the norm. Over their past six games, a miniscule aggregate goal total of 5 has been recorded between both them and their opponents at an average of 0.83 goals per game. That kind of trend isn’t assured to follow through into this next game, though.

Looking at their past form shows that Augsburg:

• haven't been beaten in the league by VfL Wolfsburg in their last 6 games.
• have not been beaten in their last 3 home league matches.
• haven’t won at home in the past 2 matches in the league.

VfL Wolfsburg

DWDLWD

In their previous game, VfL Wolfsburg drew 1-1 in the Bundesliga tie with St. Pauli.

In that game, VfL Wolfsburg had 58% possession and 16 attempts on goal with 4 of them on target. The scorer for VfL Wolfsburg was Mohamed Amoura (70'). St. Pauli had 14 shots on goal with 4 on target. Siebe Van der Heyden (38') scored for St. Pauli.

The numbers tell their own story, and VfL Wolfsburg have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, seeing their opponents hit 5 goals in all. At the back, VfL Wolfsburg certainly have room for improvement.

A look at their previous results shows us that VfL Wolfsburg:

• have not beaten Augsburg when they've played them away from home in the last 3 league matches.
• have not been beaten in their last 3 away league matches.

ℹ️ Team News: Augsburg

Yusuf Kabadayi (Knee surgery), Henri Koudossou (muscular problems), Reece Oxford (Fitness), Mergim Berisha (Hamstring injury), Mads Pedersen (Torn ligaments) and Robert Gumny (Adductor injury) won’t be able to feature for Augsburg boss Jess Thorup.

We think that Augsburg may well kick off with a 4-4-2 formation for the game with Finn Dahmen, Chrislain Matsima, Jeffrey Gouweleeuw, Cedric Zesiger, Marius Wolf, Kristijan Jakic, Frank Onyeka, Dimitrios Giannoulis, Fredrik Jensen, Alexis Claude and Phillip Tietz.

ℹ️ Team News: VfL Wolfsburg

VfL Wolfsburg manager Ralph Hasenhüttl has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Lukas Nmecha (Adductor pain), Mathys Angély (Torn muscle fiber), Kevin Paredes (Foot injury), Bartosz Bialek (Knee injury), Patrick Wimmer (Ill), Rogério (Fitness), Lovro Majer (Torn muscle fiber), Sebastiaan Bornauw (Bone edema) and Yannick Gerhardt (Ill) are not able to play.

There’s a good chance that Wolfsburg seem likely to make use of a 4-4-2 lineup, starting the game with Marius Mueller, Mads Roerslev, Denis Vavro, K. Koulierakis, Joakim Maehle, Andreas Skov Olsen, Mattias Svanberg, Maximilian Arnold, Tiago Tomas, Jonas Wind and Mohamed Amoura.

✨ Prediction

We’re thinking that VfL Wolfsburg and Augsburg might both not be able to do quite enough to get on the scoresheet here.

A scoreless draw looks like a real possibility, but we’ll see what happens. That’s why we have predicted a very competitive game with a 0-0 scoreline at the end of the match.
