Team News

Augsburg
Wolfsburg
  • Spurs loanee Japhet Tanganga is being eased into the fray after a knee injury, while Raphael Framberger is ruled out for several months after suffering an ACL injury.
  • Reece Oxford has long COVID. Ruben Vargas and Kevin Mbabu both have niggly groin injuries.
  • Kilian Fischer is nearing a return from a knee injury, while Felix Lange has an ankle knock.
  • Lukas Nmecha has undergone surgery on his knee and will return only next year.
  • Rogerio has a calf problem, while keeper Koen Casteels is struggling with a stomach muscle injury.

Prediction

  • Augsburg often struggle towards the bottom, have never been relegated and 53-year-old Dane Jess Thorup is the man entrusted with moving FCA away from the lower reaches.
  • Augsburg thrashed Heidenheim 5-2 last Sunday, turning around a two-goal first-half deficit to win comfortably in a great start for the new coach.
  • Wolfsburg have not drawn in 14 Bundesliga games, winning four and losing four this season.
  • Both "Battle of the Burg" meetings last season ended in draws and this one could likely be a share of the spoils as well.
