Augsburg on the verge of six-game unbeaten home streak as Bremen visits.
After a disappointing loss to Frankfurt, Augsburg aims to maintain their unbeaten home run as they host Werder Bremen, who seek momentum from their recent victory, in an intriguing Bundesliga clash this Saturday at the WWK Arena.
FC Augsburg
Augsburg were left with only two victories after five games [WDLWL] following the weekend’s 3-1 loss to Frankfurt, having failed to keep hold of a one-goal lead. Ruben Vargas [13’] had put Augsburg ahead inside the first fifteen minutes before they went on to concede three goals, the last one being a stoppage time goal from Omar Marmoush [90’+5]. The defeat left the hosts in 8th place on the Bundesliga table.
With 39 points after 10 wins, 9 draws, and 11 losses, the home team are only six points outside the top six. Augsburg, who have a goal ratio of 1.6 G/G this season, have scored 48 goals in 30 Bundesliga games. They remain unbeaten in their last five Bundesliga home games [3W, 2D, 0L].
Avoiding defeat on Saturday would have them equal their six-game unbeaten streak on home soil last seen under Manuel Baum in the 2017-18 season. Furthermore, against no side has FC Augsburg won more Bundesliga games than SV Werder Bremen [12 – level with 1. FSV Mainz].
On Saturday, the Fuggerstädter could take the shape of a 4—1—2—1—2 once again with Ermedin Demirović and Phillip Tietz in attack. As many as six players, including Fredrik Jensen and Reece Oxford, are ruled out of the weekend’s game.
Werder Bremen
Werder Bremen picked up a 2-1 win over Stuttgart, ending their seven-game winless run in the Bundesliga. The much-needed win, inspired by a brace from Marvin Ducksch (28’ P, 49’), leaves the visitors in 11th place on the Bundesliga table with 34 points (9W, 7D, 14L).
Bremen (LLDLW) will be looking to achieve back-to-back victories this weekend in what would be an iconic game for the club. They will play their 1000th Bundesliga away match against Augsburg, becoming the second club behind Bayern Munich (1003) to reach that milestone.
However, an unimpressive away record could see them return as unhappy travelers after the trip to Augsburg. Only Eintracht Frankfurt have lost more away games in the Bundesliga (485) than the visitors (464).
A 3–4–3 formation with Romano Schmid and Nick Woltemade teaming up in attack alongside last weekend’s hero Marvin Ducksch is anticipated for the upcoming game. Jens Stage remains suspended along with Naby Keïta, who is refusing to travel, following his red card in the 1-1 draw against Frankfurt.
