Sonnenhof Großaspach host FC Augsburg in the DFB Pokal round of 32 on October 27, 2026, with kick-off scheduled for 17:00 local time at the WIRmachenDRUCK Arena. The tie brings together a 3. Liga side struggling for consistent results and a Bundesliga opponent that has also found wins difficult to come by recently. Großaspach have the opportunity to produce a cup upset, but their 7-1 defeat to Wehen Wiesbaden three days before this fixture has put their defensive record firmly in focus. Augsburg arrive after a 1-1 draw with FC Union Berlin and remain winless across their last five matches. This Sonnenhof Großaspach vs FC Augsburg preview looks at whether the hosts can recover from their heavy loss and how the visitors’ recent goal-filled games might shape the cup contest.

Sonnenhof Großaspach Recent Form and Key Stats

Sonnenhof Großaspach have taken one win and two draws from their last five matches, alongside two defeats. They have averaged 1.6 goals scored and 3.4 conceded per game over that stretch. The 7-1 loss to Wehen Wiesbaden on October 24 was the starkest example of their defensive difficulties, coming immediately before a meeting with Bundesliga opposition. While Großaspach have shown they can score in their recent run, the number of goals they have allowed gives them a significant problem to address for this cup tie.

The hosts’ DFB Pokal record this season stands at one draw, with averages of 2.0 goals scored and 2.0 conceded. Their starts to matches are another concern: Großaspach have been behind at half-time in each of their last four games, including their last three at home. Against Augsburg, avoiding another early deficit would give them a better chance to stay in contention. Their recent results leave room for improvement at both ends, but the immediate challenge is to respond to the seven goals conceded in their latest outing.

FC Augsburg Recent Form and Key Stats

FC Augsburg have not won any of their last five matches, drawing three and losing two. Their most recent result was a 1-1 draw against FC Union Berlin on October 24. Those five fixtures have produced averages of 2.0 goals scored and 2.4 conceded per game for Augsburg. The visitors have therefore continued to find goals, even as results have remained uneven. In the Bundesliga, they have lost two of their first seven matches, so their recent winless sequence is not the whole picture of their start.

Augsburg’s DFB Pokal figures show one win from one game, with 2.0 goals scored and none conceded in that fixture. Their wider scoring trends suggest this tie could be lively: each of Augsburg’s last 20 matches has featured over 1.5 total goals, as has each of their last 14 away matches. There has also been at least one second-half goal in their last 13 games and in their last 15 away games. More than 1.5 second-half goals have been scored in each of their last 11 matches, while both teams have scored after the break in their last five. These figures describe matches involving Augsburg as a whole, rather than goals scored by Augsburg alone.

Sonnenhof Großaspach vs FC Augsburg Match Analysis

On paper, the division difference favors FC Augsburg, but neither team comes into the round of 32 on a winning run. Großaspach have won once in five matches; Augsburg have won none in the same span. The visitors’ cup win and their stronger league standing offer reasons to regard them as the more likely winners, while their recent draws and defeats caution against treating the result as settled. The supplied win probabilities put Augsburg at 49%, Großaspach at 29% and the draw at 22%.

The clearest shared theme is goals. Großaspach’s last five matches have brought averages of 1.6 scored and 3.4 conceded, while Augsburg’s corresponding figures are 2.0 and 2.4. The hosts’ 7-1 defeat makes defensive improvement particularly important, yet Augsburg have conceded regularly across their own five-game sample. That combination gives Großaspach a potential route to scoring, even if containing the visitors proves difficult. The supplied both-teams-to-score probability is 68%, reflecting the possibility of chances at either end.

Timing may matter as much as the final score. Großaspach’s run of four consecutive half-time deficits raises the question of whether they can keep the opening stages close. Augsburg’s matches, meanwhile, have repeatedly featured second-half goals, including stretches of 13 overall games and 15 away games with at least one goal after the interval. An early goal would test Großaspach’s response; a closer first half would still leave plenty of scope for the game to change later. Taken together, the teams’ recent scoring and conceding averages, Augsburg’s long run of matches with multiple goals, and the hosts’ latest defensive setback make over 2.5 total goals a coherent outcome to consider.
