Our prediction for this Bundesliga match:
After surviving Borussia Dortmund in the DFB Pokal last 32, Wolfsburg will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they face Augsburg on Matchday 9. The Wolves are eager to escape the danger zone and we are positive they will fight tooth and nail against the Bavarians. Maximilian Arnold is back from suspension, but fellow midfielder Patrick Wimmer has yet to serve his ban. Lovro Majer is a major doubt after limping off with injury in the German Cup triumph.
Augsburg, on the other hand, are a team with two faces, producing fine displays at home, while struggling on the travels. Given their three-game losing run on the road, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on Wolfsburg. The likes of Fredrik Jensen, Mads Pedersen, Ruben Vargas, Daniel Klein, and Reece Oxford miss out with injuries for the away team.
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.
