Augsburg Double Chance
Ten-man Stuttgart rescued a dramatic late point at home to Dortmund (3-3) last weekend, though the relegation contenders have been dismal on the road this term, winning just once in 14 away assignments since August. Augsburg have struggled for victories of late, though they remain a tough nut to crack at the WWK Arena, where they have lost just once in six and they look undercooked in the markets to avoid defeat at home again on Friday. With that considered, the first of our football predictions today recommends a stake on the hosts in the double chance market.
Over 2.5 Goals
With the campaign’s climax in sight and time running out to secure survival, a panicked Stuttgart have started to play with reckless abandon and their last two Bundesliga fixtures featured five and six goals respectively. More thrills and spills could be in the works when they visit fellow relegation candidates Augsburg on Friday in a clash that has plenty riding on it. Over 2.5 goals has landed in each of the last six encounters between these clubs and our second Augsburg vs Stuttgart prediction advises a wager in the same direction here.
