Schalke vs Augsburg betting tips Bundesliga 5 October By Gustav

Schalke vs Augsburg betting tips Bundesliga 5 October: "Victory for Schalke in the second round of Champions League group stage away to Basel on Tuesday night will surely have a huge impact on players’ morale as they are now much closer to the next phase with two victories at the start of the competition. The game itself was pretty tight, with little number of chances from both sides, but goal from Draxler at the beginning of second half decided the whole game while the Swiss side couldn’t find a way to reply later on."

Coming back to the domestic duties, team will surely want to make another home victory and improve position on the table even further. In previous round they have drew on the road against Hoffenheim 3:3, despite the fact that they had a 3:1 lead after the first halftime. Having this in mind, but also the fact that they lost in previous home match against Bayern 0:4, there is no doubt that everyone will be fired up to get the victory in front of their fans and improve the morale even further. They are having only eight points in first six rounds and will surely be looking to climb up at the table as fast as possible.

Team remains with bunch of players sidelined, as left back Fuchs (4/1) didn’t recover for this game, same as midfielders Jones (7/0) and Farfan (6/1) and striker Huntelaar (2/2) who is already out for two months. Long term absentees remain central defender Papadopoulos and midfielders Annan and Obasi, all three being sidelined from the start of the season.

Augsburg is coming from a 2:2 home draw against Gladbach last weekend, although the hosts could have feel much worse after the game as they dominated it for the most of the time and could have easily taken the three pointer on some other day. With much more chances created during the game, they still remained without a victory and continued being at the middle of the table.

As said, they are currently tenth at the rankings, with a 3-1-3 record as the team still performs much better than in previous season. Their target is just to remain in the class and no doubt that everyone is satisfied that the team managed to get three victories out of seven matches, being currently five points away from the danger zone. Coach Weinzierl is close to name unchanged squad in comparison to previous game, as the visitors continue playing without suspended striker Bobadilla (3/1) and without any other fresh injury or suspension worry.

There have been over 2.5 goals scored in eleven of Schalke’s last twelve home games in the Bundesliga.
Augsburg have lost six of their last seven away matches in the Bundesliga.
Due to the facts written above, Schalke players should be very motivated to get the victory here and in case they enter the game in a good way, it won’t be too surprising to see them winning with more than one goal margin against rather poor travelers.

Bet: Schalke Wins
