Head-to-head statistics Borussia - Augsburg
Borussia Dortmund Team Overview
📝 Borussia Dortmund occupies an unusually low position in the league standings and is striving to climb into the European competition zone to avoid significant financial losses. The team has secured five wins in the last ten matches, scoring an average of two goals per game. However, their defense is not always perfect, as evidenced by their average of 0.9 goals conceded per match.
📎 In the German championship, the "Bees" are struggling, so they aim to make a splash in the Champions League, which they managed to do last season. However, there is also a risk of an early exit there, as Borussia failed to defeat Lille (1:1) in the first leg of the Round of 16, looking very weak after the break.
📢 “In the first half, we did everything right, but in the second half, everything fell apart. There was no movement, and we couldn't calm the game down. But I am confident that we will win the return match,” said Niko Kovac after the match. It should be noted that the Croatian has won only 3 out of 7 matches at the helm of Borussia.
❌ Following the game against Lille, Borussia's injury list grew. Daniel Svensson is out for about a month due to a knee injury. Carney Chukwuemeka and Felix Nmecha are also still recovering from injuries.

FC Augsburg Team Overview
📝 Augsburg is currently in 11th place in the standings and is looking to improve its position. The team has shown decent form with four wins and four draws in the last ten matches. Their defense is particularly impressive away, conceding only 0.4 goals per game. However, their attack is not as effective as desired, averaging just one goal per match. Augsburg prefers to play defensively, relying on counterattacks and solid defense.
🔗 Last round's match against Freiburg marked the fourth consecutive clean sheet for Augsburg's goalkeeper Finn Dahmen. In doing so, Dahmen set a new club record for the number of minutes without conceding a goal, surpassing Marvin Hitz's achievement.
📣 "We played an excellent match against Freiburg and are disappointed to have earned only one point against a top-5 team. This shows that the team is in great shape. We are already eight consecutive matches unbeaten," noted the head coach of the "Fuggers," Jess Thorup.
❌ The list of injured players for Augsburg remains unchanged. Oxford, Kabadayi, Berisha, Pedersen, and Koudossou are unable to assist their teammates.

Trends show that the "Bees" consistently score more than 1.5 goals at home in head-to-head encounters with the "Fuggers." Given the attacking potential of the hosts, we can expect an intense match with plenty of chances at both ends of the pitch.
