Wolfsburg - Augsburg betting tips and odds

If you’re looking for a relatively safe result bet, a home win at odds of 1.62 is a solid option. That said, Augsburg may yet be able to pull off a surprise, maybe even in the form of a stalemate.

Augsburg are massive underdogs and will be extremely lucky to avoid complete annihilation at the hands of Wolfsburg.

The previous Bundesliga round brought a morale-boosting away victory for Wolfsburg who managed to withdraw the first-half pressure and inflict a lethal blow in the second half to claim a Stuttgart triumph.

Augsburg had their work cut out for them as they entered the previous game. The 3.05 odds were somewhat favourable, but most of the advantage can be chalked up to the fact that they were playing at home. The two teams ended up in a deadlock for most of the runtime, and the match ended with a 1:1 draw.

We’ve seen a string of concessions from Wolfsburg on their home turf – specifically, 6 over the last 3 matches. Online bookmakers are not giving them great chances of getting out of this one with a clean sheet.

Results and standings notwithstanding, Augsburg have run into some defensive issues in this stretch of the Bundesliga. In the past 3 matches, they allowed more than 5 goals to their opponents, which may be cause for concern for their supporters.

Even though we’ve seen Wolfsburg and Augsburg clash multiple times this season, none of the two teams managed to secure a conclusive record. There have several tied games throughout multiple competitions.

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 - Tobias Strobl, Niklas Dorsch, André Hahn will all be unable to perform.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 2.23. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
