Augsburg visit VELTINS-Arena this coming Sunday for a Bundesliga fixture with home side Schalke 04. The last time the pair played each other, Schalke 04 came out the other side as 1-0 winners and surely won't mind a repeat of that result.

Schalke 04 are number 14 in the table on six points after seven matches. Augsburg rank as number 11 with nine points after seven matches played.

Schalke 04 came away with three points from the latest encounter with Augsburg. It would be a surprise if they fail do to it again, when they face each other on Sunday.

Schalke 04 are relatively average in the art of goal-scoring these days. They claimed a steady 13 goals in their previous ten matches, for an average of 1.3 goals per game. They simultaneously allowed their opponents 20 goals, or an average of two goals a game. Furthermore, they fought their way to one clean sheet in this run.

Augsburg travel to their next Bundesliga match, averaging a lowly 0.8 goals per game in their last ten matches. They scored a disappointing total of eight goals, while also conceding 19 goals. That amounts to an average of 1.9 per game, in which they kept their opponents from scoring two times.

Schalke 04 vs Augsburg Prediction

Schalke 04 went through their last three matches with a 1-1 draw against VfB Stuttgart, a 3-1 win against Bochum and a 1-0 defeat against B. Dortmund. Schalke 04 claimed a middle-of-the-road three wins in their previous six matches on home soil in the Bundesliga. They also drew one and lost two, as they scored 12 and conceded 14 goals.

Few people saw Schalke 04 at the fun end of the table this season, but they are displaying a great form right now.

In their last three matches, Augsburg lost against Hertha Berlin by 0-2, beat Werder Bremen by 0-1 winning 1-0 against Bayern München. Augsburg managed a decent return of three wins in their last six Bundesliga away matches, in which they scored five while also conceding seven times. They also experienced zero draws and three defeats.

Few people had high hopes on behalf of Augsburg before the season, but current form sees them punching above expectations.
