Watch: Darmstadt 1-2 Augsburg - previous meeting
Head-to-head
This will be the fifth time the two sides have met in the Bundesliga and, either way you look at, Augsburg have dominated the most recent history. In the top flight, Die Függerstadter have lost just once against Die Lillien, with Darmstadt's previous triumph coming in the 1982/1983 Bundesliga 2 season. They will look to use the 2015 victory, when they prevailed 2-0 thanks to goals from Sandro Wagner and Peter Niemeyer.
Two different Augsburgs
The hosts, meanwhile, sit 14th after their first six matches. Their Jekyll and Hyde away form means teams have often met two different Augsburgs this season - while they have amassed five points from three games at the WWK Arena, they have beaten in all three encounters on the road, the latest matches in a run of 16 away ties without a win. Fortunately for them, they face Darmstadt on home turf.
Darmstadt finally up and running
Lieberknecht and co can now breathe a little easier after winning to move themselves out of the relegation zone. A victory really should have come sooner - they led Borussia Mönchengladbach 3-0 during Matchday 4 before drawing 3-3 - but this result will help them settle down amongst the elite.
