Augsburg's unbeaten home record meets Freiburg's stronger provisional league position, with both sides relying on four-goal scorers and carrying several availability concerns.

Before kickoff

Can Augsburg's home record answer Freiburg's table advantage?

That is the central question before Saturday's Bundesliga meeting at WWK Arena. In the provisional standings, SC Freiburg are #3 with 13 points from 7 games, four points ahead of FC Augsburg, who are #9 with 9 points from 7 games. Bayern München lead with 17 points. Augsburg's home record is 1 win, 3 draws and 0 losses, while Freiburg's away record is 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss.

Recent sequences and goal threats

Across the seven most recent league matches, Augsburg's form reads Win, Win, Draw, Loss, Draw, Loss, Draw. Freiburg's reads Win, Win, Win, Draw, Win, Loss, Loss. Freiburg's Y. Suzuki and Augsburg's M. Gregoritsch carry the clearest scoring records, with 4 goals in 6 appearances and 4 goals in 7 appearances respectively. Freiburg also have I. Matanović and M. Eggestein on 3 goals each, while Augsburg's R. Fellhauer has 3 goals in 7 appearances.

Augsburg have used 3-4-2-1 in 6 matches this season and 5-3-2 in 1. Freiburg have used 4-2-3-1 in all 7 matches.

Availability before kickoff

Augsburg will be without J. Bah (Red Card), N. Banks (Knee Injury) and S. Mounie (Injury). C. Brackelmann (Concussion) and A. Claude-Maurice (Muscle Injury) are questionable. Freiburg list J. Makengo, D. Scherhant and P. Treu as questionable with muscle, foot and ankle injuries respectively; B. Yilmaz is also questionable through lacking match fitness.

Will Augsburg's unbeaten home record hold against Freiburg's higher provisional league position and recent sequence at kickoff?
