Augsburg
Augsburg goes into this match in the thirteenth position with 33 points. With two games to go, they are only two points clear of the sixteenth-placed team, who is in the relegation play-offs.
Augsburg is the third team with the fewest goals scored, with 32 goals in 32 games. The good thing is that some of the teams above them in terms of goals do not have many more goals than them, as is the case of Werder Bremen.
Werder Bremen
Werder Bremen is currently in fifteenth place, level on points with Arminia (who is sixteenth and would have to play in the playoffs) and two points ahead of the seventeenth, which would mean direct relegation.
Werder Bremen is one of the few teams in the Bundesliga to have won more points away than at home, a rare statistic for a team in the bottom half of the Bundesliga (14 points at home and 17 points away).
Key Stats
Augsburg vs Werder Bremen Predictions
Both teams are in their worst form of the season, so home advantage is a huge factor in this type of match. In addition to that, Augsburg, in their last matches at the WWK Arena, has managed to win their games with ease, while Werder Bremen as visitors has been on a run of three defeats in a row.
Both have conceded quite a lot of goals in their last few games, so following this trend we think there could be more than 2.5 goals total, not because of more merit of the forwards of both teams but because of the defensive mistakes of both teams.
