Augsburg, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Augsburg players having failed to take any points away from their recent 3-1 away defeat at the hands of Mainz 05. Their share of possession in that meeting was 50%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target, in contrast to Mainz 05, who had 16 shots on goal with 8 on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 7, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 11 goals and some valuable points in the process. When it comes to attacking performances, they can consider themselves in a good and consistent form, having chalked up goals in 5 of their last 6 matches. Having shipped at least a single goal in 16 of their 20 league matches this season, they don't have an enviable defensive record this campaign.
Despite picking up some valuable points from 2 wins, the 4 lost matches from 6 will be the main concern for them.
On an individual basis, Mërgim Berisha will be looking to get on the scoresheet again at The WWK Arena having scored 5 goals in Augsburg's last 6 home games in the league.
1899 Hoffenheim, Recent FormThe 1899 Hoffenheim squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 3-1 home defeat against Bayer Leverkusen, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. They achieved 50% possession in that match and had 11 strikes at goal, with 6 hitting the target, up against Bayer Leverkusen's tally of 12 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
They have found the net 8 times in their last 6 matches, but it hasn't earned them much points-wise due to a leaky defence that's shipped 19 goals in that same period. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 10 games.
A win for 1899 Hoffenheim is just a distant memory, having not won a single match in 10 games.
On an individual basis, Mu'nas Dabbur will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in 1899 Hoffenheim's last 6 league games.
It was one to forget for Augsburg last time they met 1899 Hoffenheim in the league, falling to a 1-0 defeat.
Hoffenheim will feel sure their attacking prowess will yield results in this one, having scored at least 1 goal in the previous 11 encounters with Augsburg. Goals come easy for Hoffenheim when they travel to Fuggerstädter, having recorded 8 goals in their past 3 visits and an impressive average of 2.67 goals per match.
In the last 3 league meetings between the teams, Hoffenheim has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Augsburg in 3 games.
Augsburg manager Enrico Maaßen has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Iago Borduchi (Achilles tendon), Irvin Cardona (Foot), André Hahn (Knee), Reece Oxford (Back), Tobias Strobl (Cruciate ligament) and Ruben Vargas (Ankle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Pellegrino Matarazzo has a number of injury concerns in his Hoffenheim squad to contend with: Jacob Bruun Larsen (Groin), Pavel Kadeřábek (Hip), Grischa Prömel (Broken ankle) and Robert Skov (Calf)
