SG Sonnenhof Grossaspach vs FC Augsburg Prediction

SG Sonnenhof Grossaspach host FC Augsburg in the DFB Pokal second round on 27 October 2026 at 20:00. Grossaspach play in the 3. Liga after winning promotion this season, while Augsburg compete in the Bundesliga. The hosts earned respect in the first round by drawing 2-2 with Arminia Bielefeld and winning 3-0 on penalties, but they arrive here after a 7-1 defeat to Wehen at the weekend. Augsburg have not won in five matches across all competitions, though they remain heavy favorites on paper.

Form and H2H

Grossaspach have scored in eight consecutive competitive matches despite managing just one win in their last seven outings. Their cup pedigree this season suggests they can trouble a Bundesliga side, even one in poor form. Augsburg scored 11 goals in four away matches earlier this season and possess superior squad depth, but their recent results tell a different story. They drew 1-1 with Union Berlin in their last Bundesliga fixture and have rotated heavily in the cup, with Noahkai Banks, Calvin Braekelmann, Sima Suso, Alexis Claude-Maurice and Steve Mounié all unavailable. Rodrigo Ribeiro could lead the line.

Best Bet

Both teams to score. Grossaspach have found the net in eight straight matches and will be fully motivated at home. Augsburg possess the attacking quality to break down a third-tier defense, even with injuries and rotation. At 1.29 on Melbet, 1xBet, and 22Bet, or 1.3 on 1Win, this offers value given both teams' attacking output this season.

Odds to Watch

Augsburg are clear favorites to advance. The away win trades at 1.29 on Melbet and 22Bet, 1.3 on 1xBet, and 1.29 on Mostbet. A draw sits at 5.75 on Melbet, 1xBet, and 22Bet, or 6.0 on Mostbet. The hosts are priced at 8.05 on Melbet, 1xBet, and 22Bet, or 8.6 on 1Win, reflecting the gap in class despite Grossaspach's cup run credentials.
