Frankfurt vs Augsburg Prediction 6 September 2026
๐ In the second round of the Bundesliga, Eintracht Frankfurt will play their first home match of the season as they host Augsburg. The hosts began the campaign with a scoring draw against Union, while the visitors comfortably beat Schalke. Adi Hรผtter's side now need to back up their ambitions in front of their own supporters. For the Eagles, it will be their first return to their home ground in 113 days. Frankfurt will surely look to be more active than they were in Berlin after the break, when they allowed their opponents to pull back two goals. Augsburg, meanwhile, got off to a perfect start and will certainly be looking to carry that on.
Head-to-Head
๐ In the last 27 official meetings between the two sides, Eintracht have won 9, Augsburg have won 8, and 10 have ended in draws. The most recent encounter, in April, finished 1-1 at the WWK Arena. In December 2025, Eintracht won 1-0 in Frankfurt. Eintracht are unbeaten against Augsburg in their last five matches.
Head-to-head statistics Frankfurt - Augsburg
Eintracht Frankfurt Team Overview
Adi Hรผtter's side began the season with an eventful match in Berlin. Eintracht beat Union three times, with all three goals scored by Younes Ebnoutalib. The 22-year-old striker converted all three of his shots and became only the third player in Bundesliga history to score a hat-trick on the opening matchday at such a young age.
The problem came after the third goal. Eintracht were leading 3-1 but failed to hold on and conceded the decisive goal deep into stoppage time. Captain Robin Koch said after the match that the team lacked release and control of the game. Now Frankfurt will have the backing of their home crowd, with Deutsche Bank Park's capacity increased to 60,100 this season.
Match Results: Eintracht Frankfurt
Augsburg Team Overview
Augsburg made the perfect start to the season, thrashing Schalke 3-0. They not only picked up three points but also kept a clean sheet in the opening round of the Bundesliga for the first time in the club's history. It was also Augsburg's biggest win in a first-round match throughout their entire time in the top flight.
Michael Gregoritsch deserves a particular mention. The Austrian opened the scoring against Schalke and netted his 36th Bundesliga goal for Augsburg, leaving him just one strike away from Alfred Finnbogason's club record. The Fuggerei will likely look to sit back and exploit the space in behind the defence.

Latest news
Eintracht Frankfurt
โ For the hosts, Nnnamdi Collins, Ansgar Knauff and Jessic Ngankam are all out. Collins is missing with a back problem, while Knauff and Ngankam are recovering from hamstring injuries. There are no other fitness doubts ahead of the match, and Lilian Brassier, following his move to the club, is in line to start.
Augsburg
โ The visitors are in a slightly better position with their squad. Tim Breithaupt remains in the treatment room recovering from a toe injury, while Steve Mounie has yet to reach the necessary match fitness. Defender Kelvin Braaklaamann has also appeared in the latest injury reports, so Manuel Baum will need to think carefully about his defensive options.
๐จ Yellow Cards Prediction
This match could turn out to be a fairly physical one. Eintracht will look to control the ball and press actively, while Augsburg will have to do a lot of work without the ball and break up potentially dangerous attacks. Referee Daniel Schlager averages 3.9 yellow cards and 20.5 fouls per match. Recent head-to-head meetings between these sides have also tended to be on the rough side. I'm expecting at least four bookings here. Bet: Total Yellow Cards - Over 3 at odds of 1.54*.
โฝ Goals Prediction
Both sides showed good attacking potential in the opening round. Ebnutalib was particularly impressive, converting all three of his shots in Berlin. Eintracht's defence, meanwhile, has raised some questions - the team let slip a two-goal lead - while Augsburg showed solidity at the back, keeping a clean sheet. At home, Frankfurt will surely look to take the initiative, but that doesn't mean the Bavarian club won't have chances of their own. The bet: Both Teams to Score - Yes at 1.47*.
๐ฉ Corners Prediction
Eintracht at home should enjoy more of the ball and sustain lengthy spells of positional play. Augsburg, meanwhile, are capable of hitting back on the break, and their defence will regularly have to deal with crosses and cutbacks from the hosts. Given the nature of the match and the attacking intent of both sides, I expect a fairly high volume of set-piece situations. Pick: Total Corners - Over 8.5. Odds - 1.44*.
*Odds are indicative and may vary across different bookmakers.
โญ Editor's Prediction
Eintracht go into their first home match of the season with a potent attack, but they have not looked entirely solid defensively so far. Augsburg, by contrast, started the campaign with a confident win and will look to exploit the hosts' vulnerabilities in transition.
I'm expecting a fairly open, goal-filled match. Eintracht should create more chances, but Augsburg are quite capable of getting on the scoresheet themselves. Prediction: Total Goals - Over 2.5. Predicted score: 2-2.
Will this prediction come true?
