Augsburg Preview: Impressive win
Augsburg have been in much steadier form of late as they move away from any sort of trouble and firmly into the middle-of-the-table. The hosts come into the visit of Wolfsburg this weekend on the back of a fairly remarkable and under the radar nine-match unbeaten run in the league.
The hosts most recently went away to a potentially distracted Borussia Dortmund side at the Westfalenstadion last weekend and they defeated Dortmund by a goal to nil thanks to a 23rd minute winner scored by defender Jeffrey Gouweleeuw.
Wolfsburg Preview: Intense Wolfsburg
Coached by former Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuttl, Wolfsburg begin this weekend’s round of fixtures sitting tucked inside the top seven and the potential European spots in the Bundesliga with their 25 games consisting of 88 goals in the Bundesliga.
The visitors most recently shared a 1-1 draw with struggling St Pauli at the Volkswagen Arena last weekend in which they needed a 70th minute equaliser scored via the penalty spot by Mohamed Amoura, making it just one loss in ten Bundesliga matches in 2025.

Augsburg vs Wolfsburg Prediction
Augsburg have been in excellent form of late and their impressive form has come as a result of a strong defensive record. They have kept five successive clean sheets in the Bundesliga since a 1-1 draw with St Pauli in Hamburg in early February. They now face a Wolfsburg side that have been entertaining to watch throughout the campaign and they themselves will be expected to continue their intense press but given Augsburg’s improved form, home advantage and a belief they can control any opposition at the moment, it may well be worth siding with the hosts here.
