Union Berlin - Augsburg betting tips and odds

By pricing a home win at around 2.00, the bookies made it clear that Union Berlin are the favourites. Overall, though, the difference between the teams is not big, and the match can end either way.

At 4.10 betting odds, an away win would be a huge surprise and we’re positive Augsburg are well aware of it themselves.

Although Union Berlin are coming on the back of a harsh 4:0 loss, it would be rather unfair to judge them purely on that performance. They were playing an away game in an extremely difficult matchup against Bayer Leverkusen , so they spent most of the match trailing behind.

Augsburg’s previous match against Hoffenheim wasn’t truly a success, but it was still a decent effect. They were behind for most of the game, yet they carved out a 1:1 draw in the end. Considering their opponents were tagged as favourites, Augsburg can be proud of their single point.

A high concessions rate is not a good look to have, and Union Berlin have been on a downward spiral when it comes to their defensive performance. With 5 goals conceded over their past 3 games, there’s definite room for improvement.

Looking over the stats for the away team, it seems they consistently display a remarkable ability to perform under pressure. They boast 5 goals on record in their latest 3 away games alone and there is no doubt they will be looking to get their name on the score board this time around as well.

Augsburg will have an even more difficult time of this match than what was expected. They will be missing at least a few players due to injury - Reece Oxford, Raphael Framberger, Arne Maier will all be unable to perform.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1.92 odds offered at Betsson.
