Augsburg’s home record and listed scorers contrast sharply with Union Berlin’s away results, making the visitors’ attacking response the central pre-match question.

Before kickoff

A test of Union’s away attack

The key question at WWK Arena is whether Union Berlin can find an attacking response away from home. Their away record this season is 0 wins, 0 draws and 2 losses, with 0 goals scored and 11 conceded. FC Augsburg’s home record is 1 win, 2 draws and 0 losses, including 7 goals scored and 4 conceded.

Augsburg hold the clearer scoring threat

M. Gregoritsch leads the listed Augsburg scorers with 4 goals in 6 appearances, while R. Fellhauer has 3 goals in 6 appearances. That gives the home side the clearest identified goal threat in the supplied data, although Union’s defensive absences and doubts may also shape the contest. A. Markgraf is unavailable with a knee injury, while L. Burcu, O. Burke, A. Ilic, J. Juranovic and S. Nsoki are questionable with the supplied illnesses or injuries.

Augsburg will also be without N. Banks, A. Claude-Maurice and S. Mounie, all listed as missing through injury. Their recent six-match form is Win, Win, Draw, Loss, Draw, Loss; Union’s is Draw, Loss, Loss, Loss, Win, Draw.

What the result means before kickoff

The provisional Bundesliga standings place Augsburg #10 on 8 points from 6 games and Union #17 on 5 points from 6 games. Augsburg are 3 points ahead, while Bayern München lead with 14 points. The match is scheduled for Saturday, October 24, 2026 at 13:30 UTC.

Can Union turn their away scoring record into a goal threat against an Augsburg side that has scored 7 times at home this season?
