Last time out, the Wolves suffered a 2-1 loss at home to Bayer 04 Leverkusen, sending them down to ninth in the Bundesliga, while Augsburg climbed to tenth with a 5-2 win at 1. FC Heidenheim. With nothing between them in the table, the two sides now face one another on Matchday 9 (kick-off: Saturday 28 October, 15:30 CEST).
Recent meetings between the clubs have tended to go the way of VfL, with FCA only managing one win in 11. The Wolves have lost their last two Bundesliga matches however, and will be desperate to get back to winning ways in Augsburg to keep pace with the European spots.
