Hertha BSC’s painful defeat in their previous away match could have been seen from a mile away. They were facing Borussia Dortmund as visitors, so betting predictions never gave them much of a shot. The home team took an early lead which culminated in a 4:1 loss for Hertha BSC.

The away team are coming on the back of a close 1:0 victory against Hoffenheim in the previous round. The two teams were comparable in terms of their form, which was quite clear after the inconclusive first half. The home-field advantage Augsburg had won out in the end, however, and they secured a 1:0 win in the end.

The hosts will be looking to cut down on the number of goals they concede. They’ve recorded more than 5 total concessions over the last 3 matches, which is usually a cause for concern.

Based on their recent performance, Augsburg’s largest issue seems to be defence, especially in away games. With 10 conceded goals in their 3 previous visiting matches, Over 3.5 Goals markets seem like a solid betting option.

This match could go either way, but Team from Berlin’s morale is shaken after a poor first half of the season. They only earned 17 points so far, which is why they’re currently in the relegation zone.

The last time these two teams met Hertha BSC managed to secure a solid away win, although it was rather narrow. They’re still considered the favourites in this matchup, especially now that they have the home-field advantage on their side.

The odds being what they are, remember that they were priced with various injuries in mind. The hosts reported that Stevan Jovetić, Kelian Nsona Wa Saka, Chidera Ejuke will have to sit this one out, while Augsburg will have to make do without Reece Oxford, Tobias Strobl, Niklas Dorsch, André Hahn, Irvin Cardona.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 1.80, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
