Stuttgart vs Augsburg Predictions

Stuttgart to see off Augsburg again

Stuttgart are the best bet to beat Augsburg at home in the Bundesliga on Sunday. The visitors have lost four of their last six away games and could be heading for another loss here.

They are fourth in the league, ten places and 11 points above Augsburg. The hosts have won six and lost three of their nine games this season, while Augsburg have won two, drawn one and lost six.

Augsburg could not break their losing habit last time, going down 1-0 to Borussia Dortmund in a tightly contested game. They didn’t create many chances.

Stuttgart have been impressive defensively at home this season, conceding just one goal in four Bundesliga games – an average of 0.25 goals per game. They have kept their opponents at bay in four of their last five home matches.

The Stuttgart attack has been enjoying a prolific spell in front of goal, having scored in 18 of their last 20 league games. They have netted at least twice in four of their last six Bundesliga matches, including a 4-0 win over Augsburg in May.

Stuttgart are in good form, having won six of their last eight Bundesliga games. They are unbeaten in their four home matches this season and have enjoyed five straight successes at home.

The visitors are in poor form. Augsburg have lost six of their last eight Bundesliga matches and have not won in three games. They come into this game on the back of two successive reverses.

The visitors have been struggling defensively of late. No team has shipped more goals in the Bundesliga this season than the 21 Augsburg have conceded, and they have failed to keep a clean sheet in all nine of their games.

A narrow 1-0 win for Stuttgart looks the most likely outcome in the correct-score betting. Three of the last five Bundesliga games between these two sides have produced under 2.5 goals and four of Augsburg’s six reverses this season have been by a single goal.
