Match Prediction: Augsburg vs. Wolfsburg
Even at home, Augsburg rarely impresses with their attacking play, and their scoring ability is low. In their last 14 home Bundesliga matches, the team has surpassed one goal only twice, failing to score in six of those games. Notably, during this period, Augsburg couldn't score more than once against relegated sides Bochum and Holstein Kiel from last season.
Wolfsburg also struggles with creativity, having scored only seven goals this season. In their last seven away Bundesliga matches, the team failed to score four times. Additionally, in their last four league encounters at Augsburg, Wolfsburg has managed just three goals in total.
I do not expect a high-scoring affair in this match, so my prediction is: Total under 3
* Each team's lineup reflects their starting XI from their last match in this tournament.
