Venue: WWK Arena (30660 seats)

Season ticket holders at WWK Arena haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Augsburg languishing in the 13th position so far. The guesting Hoffenheim will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Bundesliga. That game was an away game at Mainz 05, so at least Augsburg are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Hoffenheim have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2300 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Hoffenheim are still fighting for the big positions at the top of the table.

After this away game Hoffenheim return home for a Bundesliga game against Union Berlin. That game is only three sleeps after this.
