Wolfsburg finished only eight last season with 45 points and 47-49 goal difference. Despite rumors about cutting of the budget, the Wolfs spent almost 50m euros some notable players like Mario Gomez, Bruma, Gerhardt, Brekalo, Blaszczykowski, Guilavogui, Didavi and promoted number of youngsters to the first team. With such improvement, the team becomes one of the contenders for the Champions League spot at the end of the season.
Augsburg are undefeated in their last three head-to-heads with the Wolfs. Moreover, Wolfsburg failed to score in all three games. However, the visitors improved greatly this summer and we should expect them to be closer to a victory in this game.
Prediction for the match: Wolfsburg to win with +0.0 Asian handicap.
