St. Pauli vs. Augsburg: Match Prediction
St. Pauli has struggled at home, rarely achieving maximum results. In their last nine home Bundesliga matches, they have managed just one win, against a lower-ranked opponent, Hoffenheim. Additionally, they lost their final home match of the previous season to Bochum, who were relegated from the top German division.
Augsburg has been strong on the road, frequently picking up points. In their last 11 away Bundesliga matches, they have suffered only two defeats, against Bayer and Stuttgart. The result against Stuttgart was heavily influenced by an early red card for Augsburg. I expect the visitors to perform well on the road once again and secure a positive result. My prediction: Augsburg to win or draw
