THE PREDICTION
Augsburg became only the second team to lose to Schalke in the Bundesliga this season last Sunday but they have won their last two home games, and have only lost one of their last five at the WWK Arena. Currently sitting in 11th place, it would take quite a turn of events for Heiko Herrlich’s side to be dragged back into the relegation fight. One team very much in that fight is Arminia Bielefeld, who have increased their chances of survival in recent weeks with seven points from their last four games. They have improved defensively, too, but scoring goals remains an issue. They are one of only three sides who have found the net less often than Augsburg this season, so under 2.5 goals is recommended for this one.
