Augsburg vs Freiburg Prediction & Betting Tips (25 February)

While Freiburg is struggling to qualify for international business in the coming season, things look much more modest for Augsburg. Seven points clear of the relegation spot feels reasonably comfortable, but Jess Thorup's team should be careful not to fall into a downward spiral.

For the Bavarians, defenders Framberger and Oxford, starting midfielder Dorsch and striker Beljo (2 goals) have yet to withdraw at this time. Sent off during the last day, senior defender Pedersen is suspended in the same way as his partner in the defensive sector, Gouweleeuw who is paying a yellow card suspension. Augsburg can, however, count on its scorer and captain Demirovic who is the best player on his team. He has indeed scored 12 goals and delivered 6 assists this season. Behind him, striker Tietz has only 5 goals.

The very important Ginter, the long-term absentees Kyereh and Rosenfelder, the replacement Schmidt and the Austrian international Lienhart will not make the trip to Bavaria. The best offensive assets of this team will, however, be present for this poster. These are the center forward Höler (6 goals) and the Italian Grifo (6 goals, 7 assists in the league) and the Austrian international Gregoritsch (4 goals), scorer in extra time on Thursday. Also watch out for the Japanese Doan (2 goals) who found the net last week against Eintracht, and the Hungarian Sallai (3 goals), who scored a double against Racing this week in C3.
