Preview
Both sides went through in the cup this week, and both did it the entertaining way. Augsburg won 4-2 at third-tier Grossaspach on Tuesday after Manuel Baum made five changes, with substitutes Arijon Ibrahimovic and Anton Kade changing the game. Freiburg came from 1-2 down to beat Wolfsburg 3-2 on Wednesday, Keisuke Goto scoring twice off the bench, after Julian Schuster rotated heavily three days on from a 1-3 home defeat to Bayern. Augsburg are thin at the back. Juma Bah is banned for two league games after his red card against Union Berlin, Noahkai Banks is out, and Calvin Brackelmann is doubtful after a head clash in the same match. Freiburg get Yannik Engelhardt back. This fixture tends to produce goals: four of the last five meetings went over 2.5, the exception a 0-0. Augsburg score 2.0 and concede 1.25 per home game. We see no sourced reason to move the market, which rates over 2.5 goals at 65%.
A stretched Augsburg defence and a fixture that usually brings goals. Our pick is over 2.5 goals at 1.47, rated 65%.
