Freiburg put together a remarkable campaign last season, earning Europa League qualification and only narrowly missing out on what would have been the side's first-ever top-four finish in the Bundesliga era. Julian Schuster's side enjoyed a solid preseason campaign, with three wins and a draw in four games before picking up an easy 2-0 win over Sportfreunde Lotte in the DFB Pokal, and will hope to continue in such form in the new season.

Augsburg also picked up a 2-0 win over amateur side Hallescher in the domestic cup last weekend, but were far less impressive in the last Bundesliga season than their weekend opponents. The visitors were hardly relegation threatened for most of the season, but only managed to finish in 13th place and will hope their nine-game busy preseason schedule provides enough preparation for a better performance this season.

Freiburg vs Augsburg Prediction

Breisgau-Brasilianer are comfortable favorites going into the weekend thanks to their home advantage and recent dominant record in this fixture. The hosts will only need to avoid complacency to get all three points against a considerably weaker side.

Fuggerstädter will be satisfied to get a point on the opening weekend, but will need something quite special to achieve that.

Prediction: Freiburg 2-1 Augsburg
