SC Freiburg vs Augsburg Predictions
[wptb id="393902" not found ]A Battle of Form and Fortitude
Key Stats
– Augsburg have suffered defeats in 12 of their last 15 Bundesliga away outings.
– Freiburg have netted at least three goals in their last four matches against Augsburg.
Freiburg are looking to overturn a trifling spell of three consecutive matches without a win as they welcome Augsburg to their home ground this Sunday. However, Augsburg themselves had just recently found their footing with a triumph over Mainz 05.
Despite their admirable performances over the past two seasons, bagging top six finishes in both, Freiburg under the guidance of Christian Streich haven’t ignited their campaign with the same spark. Following their successful starts against Hoffenheim and Werder Bremen, they’ve stumbled, amassing just a single point from their subsequent three matches against heavyweights like Stuttgart, Borussia Dortmund, and Eintracht Frankfurt.

Conversely, the silver lining amidst these grey clouds was their defensive performance against Frankfurt. After suffering a setback with nine goals in consecutive matches, a clean sheet was surely a consolation. Though their offensive strength was slightly underwhelming during that game, they certainly made their mark in the Europa League with a stellar 3-2 win against Olympiacos.
Augsburg, on the other hand, will be in high spirits following their recent victory against Mainz. Last season, they barely escaped the relegation zone, and this season’s primary goal remains the same – to ensure Bundesliga survival. Their resilience was evident in their recent match where they secured three points even after being down to 10 men for a significant period.
Key Players and Lineups
Freiburg’s lineup has been hit with a few setbacks. Influential midfielder Nicolas Hofler remains side-lined due to suspension, and injuries could keep Christian Gunter, Daniel-Kofi Kyereh, and Michael Gregoritsch out of the match. Streich might infuse some attacking flair by positioning Vincenzo Grifo as left wing-back, which would allow Maximilian Philipp to feature from the start.
Augsburg won’t have the services of Japhet Tanganga, Raphael Framberger, Reece Oxford, and Masaya Okugawa due to injuries. Engels’ suspension further dents their lineup, with Niklas Dorsch likely to fill in the void in midfield, while Sven Michel might start alongside Demirovic in the forward line.
Team Form and Notable Statistics
Freiburg’s recent form in all competitions: W-W-L-L-W-D. Augsburg’s recent form in all competitions: L-D-L-D-L-W.
Examining the performance of the top players this season, Freiburg’s Christian Günter stands out with a BettingTips4You Expert Rating of 7.50. For Augsburg, Jeffrey Gouweleeuw has been a rock at the back, boasting a rating of 7.45.
Predictions
1. Match Outcome Prediction: Given the historical data, wherein Freiburg have dominated their past five encounters with Augsburg and the visitors’ bleak away form, backing Freiburg seems like a logical choice.
2. Correct Score Prediction: Considering both teams’ offensive and defensive displays this season, a 2-1 victory in favour of Freiburg is plausible.
3. Goalscorer Prediction: Ermedin Demirovic has been in fine form for Augsburg, and given his current streak, he might find the net.
4. Corner Prediction: Both teams have had their fair share of corners this season, but given Freiburg’s attacking prowess at home, they might edge out Augsburg in this department. A total corner count of 9-11 for the match seems likely.
