Soccer betting preview: Nürnberg welcomes Augsburg in what could be a tight duel

Competition: Germany Bundesliga
Date: Sat 30.March
Match begins: 14:30 (UTC)
Venue: Max-Morlock-Stadion

It's an important duel in the bottom section of the league table, with both teams experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 18th and the visitors in 14th place.

Nürnberg and Augsburg should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.

Nürnberg form and stats

With 2 wins, 5 draws and 6 defeats from their home games, Nürnberg, who have the fewest wins (2) in Bundesliga, are certainly not brimming with confidence. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in 22 attempts. With ten home games in a row without a win, the Nürnberg fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Fortuna Düsseldorf game long ago, can be stopped today.

Nürnberg lost their last game at Eintracht Frankfurt (placed 5th) after a 0-1 scoreline. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Hoffenheim (1-2).

Nürnberg aren't scoring a lot here at Max-Morlock-Stadion with only 11 goals from 13 games. Nürnberg have conceded 16 in these home matches.

Augsburg form and stats

The hunting on away grounds hasn’t been very fruitful for Augsburg so far with only 9 points returning home. The records show 2-3-8 (win-draw-lose).

Augsburg won their last game, 3-1 versus Hannover 96 played at home. Ahead of that match was the away draw versus RB Leipzig that ended 0-0.

A quick return to home after this game, as Augsburg are hosting RB Leipzig in the DFB Pokal only three.

Augsburg find the net in their away games, although not all the time. 13 goals from 13 away fixtures. For Augsburg, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.

Head 2 Head
