Hoffenheim vs Augsburg prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2025-11-28 14:30.
[p]Hoffenheim’s pursuit of the Bundesliga’s European places continues as they host  relegation battlers Augsburg on matchday 12.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Hoffenheim were denied a fifth straight Bundesliga win by a late leveller at Mainz last weekend (1-1), but no side in the division have taken more points than their 13 across the last five rounds of fixtures (W4, D1). Christian Ilzer’s men are only outside the top six on goals scored, and having lost their first three home matches this season, Die Kraichgauer have since won back-to-back games at the PreZero Arena. They could now make it three such league victories in a row for the first time since September 2022, when Augsburg were among the three teams that they beat on home soil! [/p]
[p]Augsburg had gone five matches without a win in all competitions (D1, L4), losing four on the spin, prior to last weekend’s 1-0 triumph over Hamburg. That victory, just their third so far this season in the Bundesliga, moved them three points clear of the relegation play-off place, but manager Sandro Wagner remains under huge pressure from sections of the club’s fanbase who are unhappy with his style of play alongside their lowly league position. Those supporters will not be holding out much hope of an improvement here either, with Die Fuggerstädter having failed to win any of their last four away games (D1, L3).[/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]Augsburg have won just three of the pair’s last 20 H2Hs (D5, L12), with Hoffenheim victorious in six of the ten meetings between the sides as hosts in that time (D3, L1), while they are currently unbeaten in five home matches against the Bavarians (W4, D1).[/p]
