WOLFSBURG – AUGSBURG SOCCER PREDICTION

The victory in the last round against Freiburg was of fundamental importance for Wolfsburg. The team coached by Bruno Labbadia has thus increased to two points ahead of third position, which would force the dispute for the second consecutive year of the play-off against third place in the Zweite Liga. At the same time, Wolfsburg approached Freiburg in the standings, now only a single point away and again involved in the fight to avoid relegation.

The other good news comes from the infirmary. The list of absentees is still very long (Jung, Uduokhai, Tisserand, Gerhardt, Blaszczykowski, Dimata and Mehmedi) but the starting lineup has returned to be competitive thanks to some important re-entries. Fundamental is inolte to have available Didavi, a player against his injuries too in spite of himself, who was so far the best of his with eight goals and five assists.

The Augsburg at 36 points is now almost safe from the relegation zone, and we’ll see if the four former Wolfsburg Caiuby, Ja-Cheol Koo, Daniel Baier and Marwin Hitz will give their best to play a bad joke to their former fans. The only victory obtained in the last eight games will act as a stimulus to do better, as well as the return from a long injury of the slinger Finnbogason, author so far of eleven goals. The field factor and the main motivations of the Wolfsburg push to believe however more in the sign “1”.
