Monchengladbach to keep title hopes alive against Augsburg
FC Augsburg vs Mönchengladbach - 29/02/2020
1556
The race for the Bundesliga title is fast becoming fascinating. One of the teams involved in the title race is Monchengladbach, who visit Augsburg on Saturday afternoon.
The Foals have fallen six points off the top of the Bundesliga table after a recent inconsistent run of league form. In fact, the visitors have won just two of their last six matches in the German top-flight.
Last time out, Marco Rose’s team drew 1-1 with Hoffenheim, despite dominating the game. However, they lacked a clinical edge in front of goal.
Their recent Bundesliga games have been relatively high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in three of their last four league outings.
Gladbach’s away form may well prove an obstacle to the Foals winning the German top-flight title, as they have won just once in their last six away matches. In fact, 4-1 win at Fortuna Dusseldorf in their last away game ended a run of five games without a league victory on their travels.
Augsburg are currently midtable in the Bundesliga table. The home side are eight points off the top-six while being ten points off the relegation zone. They will still be hoping to challenge for a European spot. However, to get anywhere near those European spots, Martin Schmidt’s team need to start picking up results and quickly.
The home side has only won one of their last seven matches in the German top-flight, having suffered five defeats in the process. The fact that Augsburg have conceded at least two goals in nine of their last ten Bundesliga matches has not helped their chances of making the top-six.
Augsburg have a decent recent home record in the Bundesliga though, as they have won four of their last six home matches in the German top-flight.
Forebet predicts that the visitors will record a victory in a high-scoring clash to aide their bid for the Bundesliga title.
