Betting Preview
Wolfsburg head into the game on a back of an impressive away win over top four hopefuls, Bayern Leverkusen.
The home side are on a good run of form having picked up 20 points from the last available 30 in all competitions (W6, D2, L2).
Their 2:1 loss to Dortmund last week in the league was their first in five games, a period where they drew two and won two games.
However, as impressive Gladsner’s boys look, they remain inconsistent at home having won just one of their last six home games in the top-flight (W1, D3, L2). In the 14 league games played at the Volkswagen Arena, the total goals return remains at 31 goals meaning that the team records an average of 2.21 goals per game which is the lowest in the league.
The visitors meanwhile head into the game having picked up just a single point in the last available in with their last league win coming in 5:0 win over Augsburg in February.
The Eagles are poor away from home and by far the worst away side in the league having lost eight of their last ten matches in the topflight. To put that in context, the visiotrs have conceded an average of 4.33 goals across their last three league games on the road.
In attack, they remain drab with just 44 goals scored to their name against the 53 conceded. Between the two keepers they have used this season, the Eagles have only kept four clean sheets after 28 games in the league.
They also have conceded the opening goal within the first half hour in their last competitive matches.
