Augsburg vs. St. Pauli Match Preview Article
Welcome to the Turboscores match preview of the upcoming match between Augsburg and St. Pauli, taking place on Sunday, 15 September 2024, at The WWK Arena in Augsburg.
Augsburg, Recent Form
Augsburg will be looking to regroup after their bruising encounter with Heidenheim in which they suffered a 4-0 away defeat. In that game they had 64% possession and managed 15 attempts on goal, with 1 on target, compared to Heidenheim who had 15 attempts and 8 on target.
Whilst they have scored a reasonable 4 goals in their last 6 games, they are struggling to pick up points due to their defence, who have shipped 17 goals in the same period. They have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games.
Results wise, their recent poor run of form has left them without a win in 7 games.
St. Pauli, Recent Form
With Union Berlin sitting a clear 14 places above them in the table, St. Pauli won't feel totally dejected with their 1-0 away defeat by them last time out. Their share of possession in that meeting was 61%, while racking up 8 shots along the way, 1 of which were on target. Union Berlin had 11 shots on goal with 5 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 6 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 6 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
In terms of results, it's been a bit of a mixed bag for St. Pauli recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games.
Augsburg vs. St. Pauli Head to head
