Augsburg vs FC Koln Betting Tips and Predictions

Fixture: Augsburg vs FC Koln

Kick-off time: Friday 29^th April 7.30pm

Thatsaoal Predictions: Team to win, both teams to score, first goalscorer.

 

Three weeks ago I noticed this fixture coming up and noted it down as one of the biggest games in either club’s season so far. As it happens, this game means significantly less now due to the excellent form of both sides’ coming into the game.

 

Augsburg vs FC Koln Predictions

 

Augsburg have won three on the spin now, catapulting them to 12th place and what looks like safety with a few games to go. FC Koln were in a healthier position than Augsburg were in, and back to back wins have lifted them into the top half of the league, which is very impressive.

 

Augsburg will be pleased that two of their wins came against relegation rivals Werder Bremen and Stuttgart. They also notched a very impressive win away at Wolfsburg last week, which were much welcomed bonus points. They’ll fancy their chances of picking up points in this match, and their final home game of the season against Hamburger SV. They aren’t as effective at home as they are away however, winning just three of 15 so far.

 

FC Koln have beaten Mainz 05 away from home 3-2 and then despatched Darmstadt at home with ease 4-1. They are safe and don’t really seem likely to be able to gain any higher position than 8th in the league as they’re five points of Schalke. They would love a top half finish so I wouldn’t expect less effort from them in this game. Their away form is pretty good, they’ve only lost four games on the road all season, mainly due to keeping a tight defence.

 

My first football prediction for Augsburg v FC Koln on Friday night is for both teams to score. FC Koln are pretty tight at the back, but Augsburg are a free flowing side who are very good going forward but do leave gaps in behind their centre halves. I can see many goals in this match so this first football tip looks like a banker.

BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE – 4/6 with bet365.

My next Augsburg vs FC Koln betting tip for this match is Augsburg to win. They will be more desperate to win just to relieve any slight chance of relegation off for the fans, and they do possess the better quality players in their squad. I expect their home form to improve and this is the game to do it in. They were in the Europa League this season which does show the potential of the players, and they gave Liverpool a run for their money over two legs.

AUGSBURG TO WIN – 13/10 with Ladbrokes.

My final football betting tip for Augsburg v FC Koln is a first goalscorer tip and Alfred Finnbogason to score first. The Augsburg front man has taken some time to settle in but he’s started to find a bit of goalscoring form and he did notch in the first minute away at Wolfsburg so his confidence should be sky high at the moment.

FINNBOGASON TO SCORE FIRST – 9/2 with William Hill.
