FC Augsburg – VfB Stuttgart betting tip
The premier class has long been under wraps, now even the vice-championship is under attack! No, VfB Stuttgart’s season really can’t be praised often enough in our 1st Bundesliga tips. A year ago they were still in the relegation play-offs, but now they are planning to travel through Europe.
After the win against FC Bayern, the Swabians will have to disprove a cliché, namely that games are always the most difficult after beating Munich. A trip to FC Augsburg, a team that is currently not picking up any points, is on the cards.
A number of spectacular matches have already taken place between these two teams in the past, so neutral fans are likely to keep a close eye on them. One thing is also clear: if VfB has any weakness at all in 2023/24, it’s business trips
Away is much less of a problem than at home, and we need to take a closer look at this fact. Of course, it doesn’t stop our bookmakers from making the visitors clear favorites with odds of 1.85 to 3.60.
There’s plenty to analyze in my Augsburg VfB Stuttgart betting tip. In addition, I will of course give you my exclusive betting recommendation, which is also due to the very weak FCA defense: The Swabians from BW will score at least twice!
The prediction of the bookmakers?
In view of the table, it’s no wonder that VfB Stuttgart are the favorites with all our bookmakers. A win bet pays off this Friday, with the odds averaging 1.85.
On the other hand, FCA have only lost four home games, but are currently in crisis with three consecutive defeats. As a result, they have been pushed into the role of underdogs against the third-placed team in the league and you will receive odds of 1.85 for a win.
The Swabians have drawn away from home just once, and that was in a 2-2 draw (last-second equalizer) in Leverkusen. As there have only been two draws in 25 head-to-head matches, this time the odds are 4.05.
Analysis: Augsburg vs VfB Stuttgart
With just a few weeks to go until the end of the season, Augsburg are certain of a Champions League place and still have a chance of finishing runners-up? And all this a year after narrowly avoiding relegation in the relegation play-offs?
Yes, you can do that! VfB Stuttgart have already celebrated extensively, and it’s quite possible that the party atmosphere will continue for a long time to come. The only question now is whether the team will finish second, third or fourth.
Last weekend, they celebrated a 3:1 win against FC Bayern, which was fully deserved. The offense continues to run at full speed, with 73 goals already scored
Serhou Guirassy and Deniz Undav are two top-class strikers; the duo have already scored 43 times between them. The fans have never had to wait longer than two games in a row for a win, something they haven’t experienced for a long time.
If there’s one thing I can criticize a little, it’s the away results. 39 points from 15 games, 46:15 goals, Stuttgart can really do almost anything at home on the Neckar
Quota analysis
In terms of 1×2 bets, I can only go for the visitors. Although their away performances sometimes fluctuate, they are in second place and FCA are in crisis anyway. That’s why I’m backing tip 2 here.
The Swabians are incredibly strong offensively, but they also concede a lot of goals away from home. Since Augsburg can hardly play to nil anyway, the combination of BTS and over 2.5 goals seems sensible to me.
Finally, you can also take full risk and place a result bet. Taking all my previous tips together, I have confidence in the 1:3, for this bet you can get odds of 14.0 at Happybet.
Stuttgart shines offensively
Away from home, on the other hand, “only” 28 points have been scored in 16 games, the goal difference of 27:24 is quite a bit worse, both in offense and defense.
They have won nine times, lost six times and only shared the points once. That one draw came in Leverkusen, when VfB conceded the second goal in the last second of stoppage time.
For the second time this season, the Swabians could now fail to win three away games in a row. All they have to do against FC Augsburg is do everything the same as they did in the first half of the season
The FCA is in danger of falling
They won 3:0, their fifth three-pointer in the last seven matches. Matches against FCA are usually many things, but not boring.
30 goals from the last eight matches? This average is definitely something to be proud of! VfB’s most recent appearances in Augsburg show an incredibly wide variety, so it’s hard to derive a trend.
1:1, 1:4, 4:1, 0:6, 1:0 – anything can really happen here. The Bavarian Swabians should also know that matches against Stuttgart can swing in all conceivable directions
They actually still have a chance of making it into international play, two points behind seventh place. However, the fixture list does not bode well for the Fuggerstädter.
Dortmund, Stuttgart and Leverkusen as their final opponents is tough. A few days ago, they were beaten 5-1 by BVB, and shortly before that they lost 3-0 to Bremen and 3-1 to Frankfurt.
Three defeats in a row, a first this season. Ten goals were conceded in the last three matches, which is also anything but successful. In any case, the team has only conceded three times in 2023/24
Bayern, Leverkusen, Darmstadt and Bremen? The four home defeats came against both top teams and less strong clubs. It’s about time Ermedin Demirovic scored again.
For the first time this season, he has failed to score four times in a row, but as he has already scored against Bayern, Leipzig and Dortmund this season, his quality is undisputed.
At Bet365 he also enjoys a lot of trust, and those who bet on a goal on Friday will be rewarded with average odds of 2.75. You also have the chance to redeem the Bet365 voucher here.
As if FC Augsburg’s defense wasn’t already shaky enough, they will also have to do without a very important man against Stuttgart. Keeper Finn Dahmen will have to miss the match due to a ligament injury
My Augsburg Stuttgart tip:
VfB Stuttgart have been delighting their fans since the start of the season and are now actually aiming for second place. Anyone who has followed the Swabians this season knows that almost everything works at home, but there are still a few problems away from home.
Fewer victories, many more goals conceded, and a three-pointer in the last away game of 2023/24. It’s a good thing that FC Augsburg are now one of their favorite opponents and are also completely out of form.
The Fuggerstädter have lost three times in a row and their defense is one of the weakest in the league. As VfB are keen to finish runners-up in the championship, I believe the visitors will put in a strong performance and am betting on them:
Stuttgart will score at least two goals!
