On Saturday Feb 6th, in week 20, Augsburg hosts Wolfsburg at Wwk Arena in a clash of these two extremely mismatched Bundesliga teams. Augsburg sits at 13th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 1-3 loss against Borussia Dortmund. André Hahn struck first for Augsburg in the 10th minute, then Thomas Delaney tied it up for Borussia Dortmund in the 26th minute Finally they completed the comback victory in the 63rd minute on a goal by Jadon Sancho to cap off a wild match. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 10 points in their last 10 matches, while 3rd placed Wolfsburg is fresh off their 1-0 shutout win against Schalke 04. Wout Weghorst struck first for Wolfsburg in the 40th minute, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring In the end, Schalke 04 was frustrated by Wolfsburg’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Wolfsburg ended the match with the shutout victory. Wolfsburg should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 18 points in their last 10 matches.
