Augsburg - St. Pauli predictions

The online bookies marked Augsburg as the favourites, which makes a lot of sense. Still, we wouldn’t put St. Pauli winning beyond them – not to mention that draws are a strong possibility in relatively balanced games.

The visiting team understands the difficulty of the task that lies ahead. A win against Augsburg on their own field would be a major feat, and it is always a tough endeavor.

Augsburg will want to forget their previous Bundesliga match as quickly as possible. They were trailing behind for the entire match, after conceding early in the game. Ultimately, a Heidenheim away defeat ended up being quite an embarrassment.

The away team are coming off of a narrow away defeat at Union Berlin, which hardly came as a surprise. Considering they played as the away team and were up against overwhelming odds, most Bundesliga betting predictions expected a larger goal difference.

Looking over the home team’s recent record, we can see a worrying trend. They’ve conceded more than 5 goals over the past 3 matches alone, indicating problems in their defensive lineup.

The visitors’ status as underdogs is further made worse by the exceptionally high number of injuries going into this match. Elias Saad, Simon Zoller, Sören Ahlers, Sascha Burchert, Conor Metcalfe, Eric Smith will all be unable to play at WWK Arena, so think twice before putting down any bets.

Our prediction would be a fairly safe Home Win bet at the odds of 2.14. It’s obvious the hosts have a clear advantage going into this clash, and there’s plenty of reasons to feel confident in their success.
