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 1899 Hoffenheim. They achieved 45% possession in that match and had 15 strikes at goal, with 6 hitting the target, up against 1899 Hoffenheim's tally of 18 efforts at goal, 6 of which were on target.
Their boss Jess Thorup has every reason to be happy with his side's attacking prowess of late, which has seen them net 14 goals in their last 6 matches; however, they may have some work to do in defence with 6 goals conceded across those matches. They have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games; however, they have scored in 13 of their 14 played at The WWK Arena this season.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
On an individual basis, Ermedin Demirović will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 15 goals in Augsburg's 28 league games this season.
Union Berlin, Recent FormWith Bayer Leverkusen sitting a clear 11 places above them in the table, Union Berlin won't feel totally dejected with their 1-0 home defeat by them last time out. In that game they had 34% possession and managed 8 attempts on goal, with 0 on target, compared to Bayer Leverkusen who had 20 attempts and 8 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 4 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 8 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. Not only have they failed to score in 4 of their last 6 games, but they have also failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Despite both teams hitting the net in their previous encounter, the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
The Die Eisernen defence has struggled at The WWK Arena, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 6 visits. During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league at The WWK Arena, Die Eisernen have been unable to break through the Augsburg defence and find the back of the net.
Playing at home, Augsburg have won the last 3 and are unbeaten in the last 6 times they have faced Union in the league.
The injury list is starting to mount up for Augsburg manager Jess Thorup with Iago Amaral Borduchi (Leg), Niklas Dorsch (Foot), Raphael Framberger (Cruciate ligament), Robert Gumny (Cruciate ligament), Fredrik Jensen (Calf), Kevin Mbabu (Knee), Patric Pfeiffer (Hip) and Elvis Rexhbeçaj (Broken ankle) all unavailable for selection, and Reece Oxford (COVID-19) out for the rest of the season.
Nenad Bjelica has a number of injury concerns in his Union squad to contend with: Jakob Busk (Calf), Janik Haberer (Muscle), Jérôme Roussillon (Calf), Yorbe Vertessen (Muscle) and Kevin Volland (Knock)
