THE PREDICTION

Defeat at home to Bochum last time out was Augsburg’s seventh in the 2021-22 Bundesliga campaign and saw them remain inside the bottom three. They now travel to Koln, who have proved extremely difficult to beat in recent weeks, having not lost in their last four league matches. Three of those games however, have ended in draws and Koln know that in order to mount a serious challenge for a top six place, they need to turn these draws into wins. A home match against struggling opposition such as Augsburg is an ideal opportunity to do just that and with the visitors having picked up just a single point from their most recent five league fixtures on the road, a Koln victory has to be favoured in this one.
