Augsburg, Recent FormAugsburg will not be too disappointed to take a point from their 2-2 result against Wolfsburg last time out. In that game they had 32% possession and managed 5 attempts on goal, with 2 on target, compared to Wolfsburg who had 23 attempts and 5 on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 9, 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. They are showing great consistency in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 games. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They have been on a decent run of form lately at The WWK Arena, going undefeated in 5 of their previous 6 games there and notching up 4 wins along the way.
Goalscorer Mërgim Berisha will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Augsburg.
Cologne, Recent FormKöln will have been quite satisfied taking a point from their last match against Borussia Mönchengladbach, which ran out a 0-0 draw. Their share of possession in that meeting was 51%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target. Borussia Mönchengladbach had 8 shots on goal with 2 on target.
Manager Steffen Baumgart will be looking to hit the reset button after his team's terrible performances in their last 6 games, having scored only 1 goal, conceded 13, and picked up a meagre 2 points. There are concerning signs for them, having failed to score in 5 of their last 6 league games.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 10 games.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Augsburg, losing 3-2 to Köln.
Augsburg will be looking to extend their current run of scoring against Die Geißböcke having scored at least 1 goal in each of their previous 10 meetings. Goals come easy for Köln 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 league, Köln has a good track record when they travel to Augsburg, getting the better of them to win their last 2 games.
Augsburg manager Enrico Maaßen has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Niklas Dorsch (Nose surgery), André Hahn (Knee), Tobias Strobl (Cruciate ligament), Felix Uduokhai (Hamstring) and Kelvin Yeboah (Ligament) are all currently out of contention for this game.
