- FC Augsburg have the most conceded goals in the first half (10) in Bundesliga
- VfB Stuttgart have yet to win a game away.

FC Augsburg form and stats
FC Augsburg have played 4 Bundesliga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 1-1-2 (wins-draws-losses).
Augsburg travelled for their previous game, a trip to VfL Bochum 1848 (after extra-time, 5-4 on penalties) that ended 2-2. Augsburg salvaged the draw from a difficult situation against VfL Bochum 1848 (after extra-time, 5-4 on penalties), trailing 0-2 at one point. Not giving up resulted in Ruben Vargas equalizing. Reece Oxford, defender, was given a rating of 8.24/10 in that game, top of the team. Oxford scored one goal and won 6 of 10 duels.
Heartbreak before that as FC Augsburg lost 1-4 at Mainz 05's place.Augsburg aren't scoring a lot here at WWK Arena in the league, with only 3 goals from 4 games. Augsburg are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (9 from 4 played).
VfB Stuttgart form and stats
Playing away, VfB Stuttgart have won 0 games, drawn 3 and suffered 1 defeat in the Bundesliga this season. It's three draws from Stuttgart's last three away games, a decent catch but one that could be so much better.
Stuttgart might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Köln proved too strong as VfB Stuttgart slumped to a 0-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Mercedes-Benz-Arena. It's a bit worrying for VfB Stuttgart that their goalkeeper Fabian Bredlow managed six saves in the Köln game, but still were unable to hinder a loss. Goalkeeper Fabian Bredlow got the top player rating of the team with 7.35/10. Bredlow stopped the opponent with six saves.
A 1-1 draw was the result before that, hosting Union Berlin in the Bundesliga.VfB Stuttgart are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 2 goals from 4 away games. VfB Stuttgart have conceded 6 goals in these games.
