Game Preview
Augsburg and SV Darmstadt 98 are set to face each other in an exciting Bundesliga match on Saturday, with both teams looking to create a gap between themselves and the relegation zone. Augsburg, despite their recent defeat, have a one point advantage over their upcoming opponents. The latter, on the other hand, secured their first victory of the season in their previous match.
Augsburg, having narrowly avoided relegation by a single point in the previous season, is expected to focus on finishing above the bottom 3 positions of the Bundesliga table. With them looking to extend their current 12 year tenure at the top flight. Enrico Maassen has retained his position as the head coach for the second consecutive season at the club. Even though the former Borussia Dortmund Reserve coach has provided a more technical approach to his strategy, the overall results have not been positive for the side.
As for their opponents, following their triumphant victory over Werder Bremen with a score of 4-2, Darmstadt is looking like a deadly opponent thanks to their current momentum. The squad led by Torsten Lieberknecht swiftly secured a 2 goal advantage thanks to Matthias Bader and Tim Skarke in the first half. Soon after, Marvin Mehlem and Tobias Kempe further extended the hosts’ lead in the second half, closing the game out in their favor.
Augsburg will not be able to select Arne Engels, who was sent off during his victory against Mainz 05, while Frederik Winther, Japhet Tanganga, Reece Oxford, Masaya Okugawa and Raphael Framberger are confirmed to be out due to injury.
