Augsburg's attack has averaged 1.4 goals per game in the last five matches, whereas their defense has been somewhat leaky, conceding 0.4 goals per game. Despite a couple of clean sheets recently, their expected goals conceded metric indicates potential vulnerabilities in their defense.

The likelihood of a high-scoring game further adds excitement to this encounter, promising an engaging contest for football fans.
