Each team's starting lineup is listed from their last match in this tournament.
Wolfsburg
The club finished with a goalless draw in their previous Bundesliga match against St. Pauli. This encounter ended Wolfsburg's eight-match scoring streak in the German championship, while also halting their run of conceding goals in the tournament, which lasted for five games. The club has failed to secure a win in 5 of their last 6 Bundesliga encounters (2 draws, 3 losses) and is currently sitting 14th in the league table, only three points clear of the relegation playoff zone.
- Wolfsburg's last six German championship matches saw goals from both teams in five of them.
- At least three goals were scored in five of the club's last six games in this tournament.
- The team hasn't won at home in five Bundesliga matches (1 draw, 4 losses).
Augsburg
The club triumphed over Borussia Dortmund with a score of 2-1 in the last round, extending their uncompromising streak in the championship to seven games (3 wins, 4 losses). It's noteworthy that Augsburg has not managed to keep a clean sheet in the current Bundesliga season. Furthermore, their series of conceding goals in the tournament stands at 13 matches. The team is currently in the 12th position in the Bundesliga table, two points ahead of their upcoming opponents.
- At least three goals have been scored in Augsburg's last nine matches in the German championship.
- Jesse Thorup's men are the worst away team in the current Bundesliga season, having lost all three away matches with a total goal difference of 1:11.
- The team has conceded at least twice in their last seven away championship encounters.
Wolfsburg vs. Augsburg: Match Prediction
Following a draw in their last Bundesliga fixture, Wolfsburg managed to advance in the German Cup this week by defeating Borussia Dortmund in overtime with a score of 1-0, with the regular time ending in yet another goalless draw. Augsburg won their cup match more convincingly, defeating Schalke with a 3-0 result. However, the level of opposition faced by both teams was quite different. Wolfsburg has shown that they can compete even with Bundesliga leaders, so the visitors are in for a challenging match.
Especially since Augsburg has been performing terribly on the road in the championship, losing their last seven matches, and in six of those conceding at least three goals. Moreover, Wolfsburg hasn't lost in 6 of the last 7 head-to-head matches in the Bundesliga (4 draws, 2 losses) when playing at home. I am confident that the hosts will be closer to victory this time.
My prediction is "Wolfsburg with a handicap (0)" at odds of
