Command Analysis
Augsburg
GermanyCurrent form
At the end of the last season, Augsburg finished in 11th place in the Bundesliga. The result can be considered successful, because they reached such "heights" for the first time since 2015, when they were in the high fifth position. Traditionally, the "Fuggers" played strongly at home, where they scored 24 points, while on the road they scored 15 points.
In preparation for the start of the new season, Jess Thorup's charges played four friendlies, winning and losing twice. During the week, Augsburg made a successful start in the German Cup, scoring a convincing 4:1 away win over Viktoria Berlin in the 1/32 finals. However, after the first half, the score on the scoreboard was 1:1.
The team's biggest loss in the off-season was the departure of top scorer Ermedin Demirovic to Stuttgart. Also gone was striker Dion Bele. Among the acquisitions, we note strikers Steve Mounier and Samuel Essende, defender Kevin Schlotterbeck and goalkeeper Nediljko Labrovic. The most expensive purchase was Jakic, who came from Eintracht.

Werder Bremen
GermanyCurrent form
Werder finished ninth last season, which can be considered a positive result, as they finished 13th before that. They failed to qualify for the European Cups – they lost to Heidenheim in eighth place based on the difference in goals scored and conceded. Despite their good final results, Bremen looked weak away from home – only four wins in 17 matches played.
On the eve of the start of the new season, Ole Werner's charges played six friendly matches, in which they managed to win only twice. In the 1/32 finals of the German Cup this week, Werder beat Energie 3:1 away.
Among the acquisitions, we note the appearance of one of the best players of the Austrian Bundesliga, Marco Grüll , who, moreover, was acquired for free. Young Keke Topp, who has already managed to score a hat-trick in the cup game with Energie, was taken into attack. Werder's losses are quite serious - Pavlenka, Gross, Voltmeid, Dinkci.

Piper and Salifu are in the infirmary.

During pre-season friendlies and in cup matches with today's opponents, one could regularly see an exchange of goals scored. There were quite a few changes in the lineups and it is unlikely that anyone will be able to play a clean sheet in defense today.

In 9 of the last 12 head-to-head home games, Augsburg have not attempted more than six corner kicks. Accordingly, we recommend another promising option for a trend-based bet.
