Current Form and Recent Performances
FC Augsburg has been navigating a challenging period, currently positioned 12th in the Bundesliga. Their recent form has been inconsistent, with two wins and four losses in their last six matches. A significant 1-5 loss to Kiel highlighted defensive vulnerabilities, raising questions about coach Jess Thorup's future. Despite these challenges, Augsburg's management remains supportive, focusing on avoiding relegation rather than European ambitions. On the other hand, Eintracht Frankfurt has been impressive, particularly in the Europa League, where they extended their unbeaten run to 18 games. Domestically, they have shown resilience, often excelling against stronger opponents.
Key Players and Transfers
Augsburg's offensive efforts have been spearheaded by Samuel Essende, who has scored nine goals this season. However, their overall goal-scoring average of 1.57 per game suggests room for improvement. Eintracht Frankfurt, meanwhile, has seen Omar Marmoush's departure to Manchester City, but they have bolstered their attack with Elye Wahi. Wahi's arrival is expected to fill the void left by Marmoush, promising to deliver strong performances.
Head-to-Head Analysis
Historically, matches between Augsburg and Frankfurt have been closely contested. In their last 27 meetings, both teams have won nine times, with nine draws. Augsburg has a slight edge when playing at home, winning five of the last 12 encounters. However, Frankfurt's recent form and tactical acumen under coach Oliver Glasner give them an advantage. Their ability to capitalize on counter-attacks, especially with players like Filip Kosti, poses a significant threat to Augsburg's defense.
Prediction and Betting Insight
Considering the current form, player dynamics, and historical data, Eintracht Frankfurt is likely to secure a victory. Their strong away performance, averaging 2.84 goals per game, contrasts with Augsburg's defensive struggles. While Augsburg has managed to score in their last five matches, Frankfurt's attacking prowess suggests both teams will find the net. Therefore, the prediction is an away win with both teams scoring.
