Augsburg
Augsburg’s unbeaten run of five games (3 draws, 2 wins) put them in a strange position to even battle for Europe. They are just 4 points behind the seventh SC Freiburg, which is the last spot that goes to the UEFA Conference League.
They are in a very comfortable position, free of any pressure, which should help them finish the season well with the games against Borussia Mönchengladbach and Union Berlin.
This is Augsburg’s final home game of the season, and their stadium has been their lucky place this season. Incredibly, they lost only once in their last 11 home games and achieved notable results, including draws against favourites TSG Hoffenheim and Eintracht Frankfurt.
Borussia Mönchengladbach
Borussia Mönchengladbach’s stunning 1-0 home win against Borussia Dortmund last week locked their Bundesliga status for next season. That win came at a perfect time, after 5 winless matches (4 draws).
That was also their 12th clean sheet of the season, equalling their all-time best record of clean sheets in a season.
They travel to Augsburg without pressure as well, and their away form has been the weakest part this season. Borussia Mönchengladbach is currently winless in 10 straight away matches, having one of the worst away records in the Bundesliga.
The Betting Verdict
Neither side has particularly high motives here, though Augsburg still has a slim chance for Europe.
It should be a free-flowing, open game, where I believe we will see goals in both nets. The odds for the draw are also worth considering.
