Augsburg and Union Face Off as Pressure Mounts on Coaches

FC Augsburg seeks a critical first away win in ten months against Union Berlin, while both teams struggle to reverse poor form.

FC Augsburg coach Jess Thorup faces increasing scrutiny following a poor start to the year, with the team only three points above the relegation zone.
Union Berlin, under new coach Steffen Baumgart, has not won in nine Bundesliga matches and aims to capitalize on their strong home record.
Augsburg has yet to secure an away victory this season, with only two points gained in seven matches on the road.
Union Berlin has historically struggled against Augsburg, winning just one of their 14 encounters across all competitions.
Augsburg's recent acquisition, defender Cédric Zesiger, may debut as the team grapples with injuries in their defensive lineup.
