Augsburg vs Union Berlin Prediction & Betting tips
The strong performing FC Union Berlin will play an away match against FC Augsburg on Saturday. At that club, the good form has been absent for a while. What can we expect from this duel?
Augsburg:
FC Augsburg has not been in the desired shape for some time. Die Fuggerstädter lost no fewer than five of their six last league matches. Midweek, the game with top captain Bayern Munich was on the program. At first, Augsburg had a very difficult time in the WWK-Arena. The team fell behind, but in the second half they fought back into the game. It just didn’t work to pass Manuel Neuer – Augsburg stepped off their own field with a narrow 0-1 defeat. Alfred Finnbogason had the best chance of tying the score, but his penalty hit the post.
In the ranking, Augsburg still has a buffer to the danger zone, although it is getting smaller. The lead on number sixteen 1. FC Köln is four points. The Augsburg program for the coming period is particularly tough. The upcoming five matches that the team of trainer Heiko Herrlich has to complete, are all against teams from the (sub) top of the Bundesliga. Augsburg therefore has to work to prevent unwanted descending to the danger zone.
Union Berlin:
FC Union Berlin also played against a top team midweek. Those claimants had to take action against RB Leipzig in Saxony. Union mainly focused on the defensive part. For the most part, this went according to plan, but in the second half, Leipzig nevertheless managed to find a gap. In the remainder Union had to seek the attack. Coach Urs Fischer’s team could not become really dangerous. The match resulted in a 1-0 defeat.
By the way, it was only the third defeat that Berlin’s second club suffered in the league this season. Union is also still in an excellent position in the ranking, with a sixth place, which entitles you to European football at the end of the season. Grischa Prömel and Christopher Trimmel are eligible for a return to Fischer’s starting eleven on Saturday. Sheraldo Becker had to pass in Leipzig, and also has a question mark behind his name before Saturday’s game in Western Bavaria.
