THE LOWDOWN

WOLFSBURG

Wolfsburg are still without victory since the Bundesliga’s resumption post-winter break, which now extends to a run of nine games in succession. The last two of those have been defeats, firstly a 2-3 reverse against Stuttgart before most recently losing 2-0 away at Bayer Leverkusen. Going down to ten men against the unbeaten Bundesliga table toppers was always going to be a tall order and Wolfsburg were duly punished for it.

AUGSBURG

Augsburg have dragged themselves right up the Bundesliga in recent weeks having won their last three games, which sees them now in ninth-place. The most impressive aspect of their recent success has been how they’ve combined defensive stability with attacking potency, conceding just once across the most recent three matches and scoring nine goals. Backing up their 0-6 thrashing of Darmstadt was crucial for Augsburg and they did just that last weekend, getting the better of Heidenheim by a goal to nil.

THE TEAM NEWS

WOLFSBURG

PREDICTED XI (4-2-3-1): Casteels; Baku, Lacroix, Zesiger, Maehle; Vranckx, Arnold; Tomas, Wind, Kaminski; Behrens

UNAVAILABLE: Gerhardt (Suspended), Jenz (Suspended)

QUESTIONABLE: Nmecha (Injured)

AUGSBURG

PREDICTED XI (4-3-1-2): Dahmen; Mbabu, Gouweleeuw, Uduokhai, Iago; Jensen, Jakic, Rexhbecaj; Vargas; Tietz, Demirovic

UNAVAILABLE: Dorsch (Injured), Framberger (Injured), Oxford (Illness)

QUESTIONABLE: Pfeiffer (Injured)

THE PREDICTION

Expect Augsburg to come out of the blocks quickly here and to play like a team full of confidence and attacking verve, feeding off momentum following their recent victories. In contrast, Wolfsburg’s recent struggles are well documented and it won’t take long for the crowd to get restless, which should only play into Augsburg favour. Consider backing an away win but via the safety of the draw no bet market.

TIP: AUGSBURG DRAW NO BET
