After two confident victories at the start of the tournament over Viktoria 1889 (4-1) and Schalke (3-0), Jess Thorup's team struggled in the round of 16 against Karlsruhe (1-1, extra time 1-1, penalties 5-4).

Stuttgart vs. Augsburg: Match Prediction
The opponents met in mid-January in the Bundesliga, and Sebastian Hoeneß's team defeated Jess Thorup's side away with a score of 1-0. Stuttgart generally plays well against their upcoming opponent, remaining unbeaten in six consecutive head-to-head encounters in the league (5 wins, 1 draw). Moreover, at home, the hosts of the upcoming match have won against Augsburg in their last five matches in the main national tournament. I believe this streak will continue.
Stuttgart performs well at home, winning 5 of their last 8 official matches. One of the defeats was against PSG in the Champions League. In the German Cup, the team has a streak of three home wins, two of which were against Bundesliga representatives.
Augsburg shows weak results away, losing 9 of their last 14 league matches (2 wins, 3 draws). In the national cup, their performance is better, but it's worth considering the level of opponents from lower divisions. Augsburg last defeated a Bundesliga team away in 2015.
My prediction: Stuttgart to win
