Augsburg

Augsburg played a really good first game in which they overcome one goal deficit and won with 1-2 against Fortuna Dusseldorf. Austrian attacking midfielder Michael Gregoritsch and striker Andre Hahn were very dangerous up-front, while defender Hinteregger also played a good match and scored in that game. Interesting fact is that Augsburg have remained unbeaten in each of their last seven home duels against Borussia Monchengladbach in all competitions. Most of those games were pretty tight, with four of the last six games played at WWK Arena in Augsburg ending in a draw.



Borussia Monchengladbach

Borussia Monchengladbach won with 2-0 against Bayer Leverkusen last week, so they are relaxed in front of this match. Interestingly, last time Borussia Monchengladbach won their opening two matches at the start of a Bundesliga season was back in the season 1995/96. Borussia Monchengladbach were poor away side in the last few months of last season when they failed to win in 10 of their last 11 away Bundesliga games. Team captain Lars Stindl is still out in recovery and is not available for selection in this match.



THE BETTING VERDICT

Both teams will be motivated to pick up points from this game and continue with their good performances. I expect careful approach from both sides so maybe another draw is one the cards here. However, considering Augsburg`s good home history against Borussia Monchengladbach, I would go with a double chance bet on Augsburg to win or draw this match.
