VFL Wolfsburg vs FC Augsburg Prediction: Don't trust either side, but back a low scoring affair

Wolfsburg have found a way to pick up vital points after a horrible experience a month earlier. Currently, they have played 4 matches without losing any. In this match, they welcome Augsburg to the Volkswagen Arena for Round 26 of the German Bundesliga match. Their last 2 games on this ground have ended in draws. Augsburg recently played a pre-season match and they won 4-2. Will they be able to continue in the Bundesliga or will Wolfsburg pick another vital point here?

Wolfsburg are gradually turning things around. The change is small but it is a step in the right direction. In their last 4 games, Wolfsburg recorded 2 wins and 2 draws and before that, they were without a win in matches. Wolfsburg beat Stuttgart 1-0 away from home in the last match. Omar Marmoush was the star of the game, after he netted the only goal in the 56th minute to give Wolfsburg all 3 points. Wolfsburg had the lesser possession (43%), but registered more shots on target (3) and corner kicks (8) at the end of 90 minutes.

According to the log, Wolfsburg are in 7th spot, with 38 points from 25 matches. They have won 10 matches, drawn 8 and lost 7 so far this season.

FC Augsburg can take little credit for a good win in the last match, although it is just a friendly match. They beat FC St. Gallen 4-2, after a draw against Schalke 04 in the previous league match. In their last 5 matches, Augsburg have 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, which is a poor statistics for such a team. The game against St. Gallen was exciting and end-to-end, as both teams exchanged goals. St. Gallen were first to strike in the 8th minute and then they doubled the lead in the 24th. Irvin Cordoba and Noah Joel Sarenren Bazee scored 2 quick goals to bring Augsburg level before the end of the first half. FC Augsburg were not slowing down in the second half, as they added two more goals in the 62nd and 63rd minute to put the game to bed.

Augsburg are currently in 12th spot on the table, with 28 points from 25 matches. They had 8 wins, 4 draws and 13 losses.

Wolfsburg and Augsburg have played each other 20 times before now. Wolfsburg have 8 wins, while Augsburg have 7 wins and 5 matches ended in a draw.

These two teams are not the most exciting teams to watch and they are both struggling at this point in the season. Augsburg had enough time to experiment in the pre-season and they will hope they can try it out in this match. Wolfsburg did well in their last game before the break, but there is no guarantee they will put in a decent display here, as they have been unstable throughout the season. What I can predict here is; these two will struggle for goals and this is likely to have less than 3 goals if at all there is any.
