Game Preview
Augsburg and FC Koln face off in a crucial Bundesliga match this Saturday at the WWK-Arena. Despite being a substantial gap ahead of the bottom three, both teams are in danger of collapsing.
Augsburg will be cursing themselves for remaining in such a precarious position at this point in the season. In their last three Bundesliga games, they have taken the lead on each occasion, yet they have only taken two points from those games.
The most disappointing journey was last weekend’s trip to Wolfsburg, where Enrico Maassen’s side surrendered a 2-0 lead in the closing five minutes to draw 2-2 at the Volkswagen Arena. Augsburg has already lost a league-high 18 points from winning positions in the Bundesliga this season.
With only seven points separating them from trouble, they are not yet safe, and if they continue to struggle to maintain leads, that margin might collapse quickly. The team’s performance at the WWK-Arena has been their saving grace; they haven’t lost since the World Cup break and have accrued 13 of a possible 15 points there.

This is in sharp contrast to their dreadful home record in the first half of the season, when they won only five points in eight home games before the break. Koln come into the weekend as one of the league’s most inept teams, having failed to win any of their last six games.
They have only scored one goal in that period, a Davie Selke consolation in a 6-1 thumping away at Borussia Dortmund, and have conceded 13 goals in those six games. With the exception of an incredible 7-1 win against Werder Bremen in January, Koln has been shut out in 12 of their 26 league games this season.
One domestic away win all season does not augur well for this match, as Koln have gone ten games without a win on the road. That last victory came in September against Wolfsburg, ending their longest winless away streak in six years.
