Stuttgart vs. Augsburg: Match Prediction
The opponents met in mid-January in the Bundesliga, where Sebastian Hoeness's team defeated Jess Thorup's team away with a score of 1-0. Stuttgart generally plays well against this opponent, not losing in six consecutive head-to-head league matches (5 wins, 1 draw). Moreover, at home, the hosts of the upcoming match have won against Augsburg in the last five matches in the main national tournament. I believe this streak will continue.
Stuttgart performs well at home, winning 5 of the last 8 official matches. Notably, one of the losses was against PSG in the Champions League. In the German Cup, the team has a streak of three home victories, two of which were against Bundesliga representatives.
Augsburg shows weak results on the road, losing 9 of the last 14 league matches (2 wins, 3 draws). In the national cup, the results are much better, but it's worth considering the level of opponents from lower divisions. Augsburg last defeated a Bundesliga team away in 2015.
My prediction: Stuttgart to win
