Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
Buoyed by a 4-1 win over Viktoria Berlin in the German Cup, Augsburg will look to kickstart the new Bundesliga campaign in style when they face Werder Bremen on Saturday. The Bavarians failed to impress in the last season finale, with the team suffering five defeats in a row, but generally, they enjoyed a very successful Bundesliga campaign. Augsburg are eyeing a top-ten finish this time out, but they would be happy with the top flight survival as well. Midfielder Fredrik Jensen should miss the season opener with injury.
Die Werderaner, on the other hand, faced no difficulties in the DFB Pokal clash with Cottbus, but beating Augsburg at WWK Arena is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. Both Dikeni Salifou and Amos Pieper are sidelined with injuries, while summer signing Keke Topp should make his Bundesliga debut with Werder Bremen on Saturday afternoon.
