Darmstadt vs Augsburg Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 2nd March 2024

Mid-placed Augsburg travel to Merck-Stadion am Boellenfalltor to face struggling Darmstadt in a round 24 game, which kicks-off on Saturday. The home side could do with a win to ease their trouble at the wrong end of the table.

With 3 defeats from their last 6 matches, the situation at Darmstadt could probably be a lot better. They need to improve their game or prepare for more disappointment as they face Augsburg at home.

Darmstadt scored nine times in the last ten outings for an average of 0.9 goals a game. They conceded 18 and managed one clean sheets.

Augsburg are currently not the most scoring team in the Bundesliga, as they only found the back of the net ten times in ten matches. This is an average of just one goals a game in which they conceded 16 times, an average of 1.6 per game. They managed zero clean sheets in these.

Darmstadt vs Augsburg Prediction

Darmstadt Form

Darmstadt failed to win any of their last three matches, though they gained a point against Borussia Moenchengladbach in a 0-0 draw, before coming up short against VfB Stuttgart in a 1-2 defeat. Most recently, they settled for a 1-1 draw against Werder Bremen. Darmstadt did not win any of their last six Bundesliga matches at the Merck-Stadion am Boellenfalltor. They came through these matches with a record of one draws and five defeats, in which they conceded 11 and scored three goals.

Augsburg Form

Augsburg collected four points from a possible nine in their last three matches. An encounter with RB Leipzig brought a 2-2 draw, which was followed by a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Mainz 05. Their most recent game had them back on the winning trail as they beat Freiburg by a 2-1 scoreline. Augsburg managed to win just once in their past six away games in the Bundesliga. On top of winning once they also drew two as well as losing three, while scoring nine time and letting in four.

We trust neither defence to be able to keep their opponent at bay, when Darmstadt welcome Augsburg on Saturday. Goals should be flowing at both ends of the pitch.

Augsburg won two of their previous eight outings against teams from the bottom six and claimed ten points. They scored 11 and conceded 11 goals. Darmstadt are looking at a record of two wins, seven draws and 14 defeats in the Bundesliga this season. Augsburg are looking at six wins, eight draws and nine defeats in the Bundesliga.
