The penultimate round of matches in the Bundesliga kick off on Friday. Stuttgart will be on the road this week, as they chase a second straight success which could see them end the round in second. Meanwhile, Augsburg will be chasing a return to winning ways.
Bundesliga Preview
Stuttgart have already assured their place in next season’s Champions League, as they sit seven points clear of Borussia Dortmund with just two rounds of matches remaining. It has been a stunning campaign for the German side, and they come into this round of matches after losing just once across their last five.
Stuttgart produced one of their best displays of the season in the previous round of matches after landing a 3-1 home success against Bayern Munich. Two of their efforts were netted in the final ten minutes, with Jeong Woo-Yeong and Silas both finding the net against the former German champions. A victory this weekend could see them end the round above the Bavarian giants.
Bet hereThis week’s clash will be Augsburg’s final home game of the season. However, they come into the round of matches in poor recent form after losing each of their last three, and four of their previous five. That means that they currently sit ninth. However, a return to winning ways could see Augsburg end the round as high as seventh in the standings.
Their poor run of form continued last weekend, as they were thumped 5-1 by Borussia Dortmund. That defeat means that they have now conceded eleven goals across their last three matches, and they have found the back of the net on just one occasion.
Augsburg vs Stuttgart Head to Head
Stuttgart have a fine recent record against Augsburg after avoiding defeat in the last four matches between the sides. Their most recent success was a 3-0 victory in December. However, Stuttgart are winless on their last two trips to their rivals since a 4-1 victory in January 2021.
Augsburg vs Stuttgart Prediction
Stuttgart are enjoying a stunning season in the Bundesliga this term, and they have shown no signs of stopping their excellent recent run of form. Therefore, we could see them being an excellent selection in the betting to claim maximum points to put pressure on Bayern Munich in the race for the runners-up spot.
