FC Augsburg vs Schalke 04

Augsburg main goal in to maintain the team in the Bundesliga and so far so good, they are in 13th place and have a good 7 point lead over the relegation places but they can't relax. The reason why they are in a nice spot is because after the World Cup + Winter pause in the Bundesliga they already won 12 very important points, 4 wins and 5 losses and the funny part is that they lost all their road games but than bounce back with 4 home wins. Even they lost all their road games they faced good team and don't played bad at all besides one of those games and even last weekend they faced the Champion Bayern Munchen and lost 3:5 but played a really good game overall, of course, Bayern has just too much firepower for them to handle but overall Augsburg looked good and dangerous and at home they beat team like Gladbach, Leverkusen and Hoffenheim by 1:0 and Bremen by 2:1 showing nice performance and secure wins. Augsburg was one of the worst teams at home in the start of the season with 1 win, 2 draws and 5 losses but like I said, since the break they have been rock solid at home with 4 wins in 4 games and most important showing quality performances.

For this game Augsburg is without Dorsch, Hahn, Jensen, Oxford, Strobl and Uduokhai.

Schalke looked like a clean lock for relegation after a very poor 1st round and than after the World Cup + Winter pause in the Bundesliga they started with a 0:3 loss to Frankfurt and a 1:6 loss to Leipzig and everyone was already saying that Schalke is done but after that Schalke is 7 games without a loss, 5 draws and 2 wins has put Schalke in 17th place and in fighting range to maintain in the league, only 1 point from the safe spot what is kinda incredible since they do have one of the weakest teams in the league and are battling with tons of injuries but the team has heart for sure and we saw that in their last game at home where they got an amazing 2:2 draw against their rival Dortmund. Schalke is a poor road team, they only have 1 win, 4 draws and 6 losses but in their last 3 road games they got 2 draws and 1 win over Bochum so they can for sure be confident to come here and fight for points.

For this game Schalke is without Drexler, Heekeren, Kaminski, Kozuki, Latza, Ouwejan, Polter, Skarke and Van de Berg. Uronen is doubtful for the game.

So, we have a battle of a team who since the break has won all their home games and Schalke who hasn't lost in their last 7 games but in my opinion I give the edge to Augsburg because they are playing in my eyes better football and at home they have been very secure, only suffering 1 goal in their last 4 home games and Schalke is a team who still have a lot of trouble in scoring goals and it will not be easy for Schalke to break Augsburg here and even Schalke is having good results they have a lot of injuries to deal with what in the end will cause them some issues in terms of fatique and in this match-up I would be really surprised to see them winning, maybe they get a draw but more than that I really doubt. I like Augsburg here to win by 1:0 or 2:0, maybe Schalke scores one and get a 1:1 draw or so but I like Augsburg here not to lose for sure.

Good Luck

奥格斯堡的主要目标是保持球队在德甲的地位，到目前为止表现不错，他们排在第13位，领先降级区7分，但他们不能放松。他们之所以处于一个不错的位置，是因为在世界杯和德甲冬季暂停之后，他们已经赢得了12个非常重要的积分，4胜5负，有趣的是他们输掉了所有的客场比赛，但他们在主场赢了4场比赛。甚至他们失去了所有道路比赛他们面临良好的团队,不坏,除了其中的一个游戏,甚至上周末他们面临着冠军拜仁慕尼黑和失去3:5但扮演了一个很好的游戏整体而言,当然,拜仁已经为他们太多的火力来处理看上去不错,但总体来说奥格斯堡危险和在家里他们击败团队喜欢格拉德巴赫,勒沃库森和霍芬海姆1:0和不来梅2:1表现出很好的性能和安全的获胜。奥格斯堡是赛季初主场表现最差的球队之一，1胜2平5负，但就像我说的，自赛季末以来，他们在主场以4战4胜的成绩稳如磐石，最重要的是他们展示了高质量的表现。

这场比赛奥格斯堡没有多施、哈恩、詹森、牛津、斯托波尔和乌多奥海。

在第一轮表现非常糟糕之后，沙尔克看起来已经锁定了保级的位置，而在世界杯和德甲冬季暂停之后，他们以0:3输给法兰克福，1:6输给莱比锡，所有人都已经在说沙尔克完蛋了，但在那之后，沙尔克7场比赛没有输球，5平2胜，沙尔克排名第17位，在联赛中保持在战斗范围内。距离安全位置只有1分，这有点令人难以置信，因为他们确实是联赛中最弱的球队之一，而且正在与大量的伤病作斗争，但这支球队肯定有信心，我们在上一场主场比赛中看到了他们在主场2:2战平对手多特蒙德的惊人比分。沙尔克是一支糟糕的客场球队，他们只取得了1胜4平6负的成绩，但在最近的3场客场比赛中，他们对波鸿取得了2平1胜，所以他们肯定有信心来这里争取积分。

本场比赛沙尔克没有德雷克斯勒、希克伦、卡明斯基、科祖基、拉扎、奥维扬、波尔特、斯卡克和范德伯格。乌洛宁能否参加比赛还是个疑问。

所以，我们面临着一场比赛，这支球队在休息后赢得了所有的主场比赛，而沙尔克在过去的7场比赛中从未输过，但在我看来，我认为奥格斯堡更有优势，因为在我看来他们踢得更好，在主场他们非常安全，只有痛苦1目标在最后4主场和沙尔克04团队还有很多麻烦在进球为沙尔克打破奥格斯堡并非易事,甚至沙尔克有好的结果他们有很多受伤的处理最终将导致他们在对战周和在这方面的一些问题我很惊讶地看到他们胜利,也许他们拿到一场平局,但超过,我真的怀疑。我希望奥格斯堡在这里以1:0或2:0获胜，也许沙尔克进一球，以1:1打平，但我希望奥格斯堡在这里不会输球。
