Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
Augsburg and Wolfsburg take on each other at WWK Arena in what is expected to be a close Bundesliga encounter. The Bavarians produced their best performance of the season at the weekend, with the team rolling over Heidenheim 5-2 and, no doubt, they have regained a much-needed confidence. Barring any fresh injury worries, Jess Thorup is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated the newcomers, but all Phillip Tietz, Kevin Mbabu, Ruben Vargas, Frederik Winther, and Raphael Framberger remain in the recovery room.
The Wolves, on the other hand, aim to make amends for back-to-back defeats to Stuttgart and Bayer Leverkusen, bug given Augsburg’s display in the crushing of Heidenheim, we do not believe that the visitors are capable of grabbing more than one point from Saturday’s encounter. Sweden forward Amin Sarr is widely expected to return to the starting XI, while all Koen Casteels, Rogerio, Lukas Nmecha, Kilian Fisher, and Felix Lange continue to miss out with injuries.
Highlighted Player (Fredrik Jensen):
Fredrik Jensen is a Norwegian footballer who plays for Belgian side Zulte Waregem as a midfielder. Jensen started his senior career at Odd and he made no less than 129 appearances for the Norwegian club (league) from 2012 to 2017. The 185-cm tall player then decided to take a step forward in his career and he joined Zulte Waregem in the summer of 2017.
Fredrik Jensen signed a four-year deal with the Belgian outfit and his contract should expire on June 30, 2021. Jensen’s main position is defensive midfield, but he is used as a central midfielder as well. The Zulte Waregem footballer, whose preferred foot is right, has yet to make his debut for Norway at senior level.
Fredrik Jensen made his Zulte Waregem debut in a thrilling 5-0 win over Eupen, with the Norwegian midfielder coming as a substitute for Onur Kaya in the dying minutes of the match. Jensen was born in Skien, Norway on May 18, 1993.
Highlighted Team (Wolfsburg):
Wolfsburg are a German football club founded in the aftermath of the World War II (1945). Die Wolfe (The Wolves) wear green and white shirts and they play their home games at Volkswagen Arena. The capacity of the stadium is 30,000 and it was opened on 13 December, 2002.
It is well known that German car manufacturer Volkswagen are the club’s main sponsors. Wolfsburg won the Bundesliga trophy in 2009 and the likes of Edin Dzeko, Grafite and Zvjezdan Misimovic were part of the club’s golden generation.
You should bear in mind that Grafite and Dzeko scored 54 goals between each other in the 2008/2009 Bundesliga campaign and that the team clinched the trophy thanks to a 5-1 win over Werder Bremen on 23 May, 2009. Die Wolfe won the German Cup trophy in 2015, with the team beating star-studded Borussia Dortmund 3-1 in the title game. Wolfsburg are a team that has no bitter rivals in German football.
