Failing to acquire any points in their 3-1 away defeat by Bayern Munich will have left the Augsburg squad feeling a little deflated.  In that game they had 39% possession and managed 10 attempts on goal, with 2 on target, compared to Bayern Munich who had 19 attempts and 5 on target.  

Having lost 15 goals in their past 6 matches, boss Enrico Maaßen will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 8 goals they scored.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.  

With 4 defeats and just 1 victory in their last 6 league matches, they have had a poor run and will need to turn that around if they want to start climbing the table.

Bochum will be reasonably happy to come away from their match against Borussia Dortmund with a 1-1 draw and a valuable point.  Their share of possession in that meeting was 34%, while racking up 20 shots along the way, 7 of which were on target. Borussia Dortmund had 14 shots on goal with 3 on target.  

It seems pretty certain that Thomas Letsch will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 8 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 11 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped.  They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.  

Having drawn 3 of their last 6 away games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.  

Kevin Stöger will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Augsburg in this match, having already scored 2 goals in his last 6 away games for Bochum.
