It's a battle of the ‘Burgs this Sunday as Augsburg welcome Freiburg to the WWK Arena in this South German affair. The visitors are enjoying a spell of form that has seen them shoot up the table, now nearing the European spots. Augsburg, on the other hand, are teetering above the drop zone, without a league win since early December.

Key Players to Watch: Augsburg vs Freiburg

Alexis Claude-Maurice (FC Augsburg): Since joining Augsburg, Claude-Maurice has become the team's creative engine. He is particularly dangerous when drifting between the lines and finding pockets of space in the final third. With several injuries currently affecting the Augsburg squad, the burden of creativity falls squarely on him to unlock a disciplined Freiburg defence at the WWK Arena.

Johan Manzambi (SC Freiburg): The 20-year-old Swiss midfielder has been the revelation of the Bundesliga season. A dynamic box-to-box presence, Manzambi has a knack for arriving late in the box to score crucial goals, already tallying four this term.
