St. Pauli are trying to pile on the pressure around the opposing penalty area - so far without a shot on target.

There will be an additional seven minutes of play.

Last week against Heidenheim, Augsburg's winning goal was a product of the substitute Keven Schlotterbeck and Mert Kömür, and today Kömür himself struck – the 19-year-old's second Bundesliga goal.

St. Pauli had the game under control for long spells, but failed to maintain the pressure in the second half. Substitutes Steve Mounié and Kömür - brought on as Thorup opted to go all-in late on in the piece - created the chances that led to the somewhat lucky equaliser.

It remains to be noted: Augsburg are still yet to conjure a shot on target - and we're 75 minutes in.

The game has lost its verve after a few minor fouls.

This is not a spectacular offensive display. Neither team is creating much danger in the second half, despite plenty of effort. Augsburg have to start taking more risks if they are to change the dynamics of the game.

The left-back has taken three of his team's four shots on goal - one of which up the own-goal -and he also won an impressive 70 percent of his duels in the first 45 minutes.

Visibility is still not optimal, but we're moving forward.

The match has been interrupted due to smoke coming from the away fans' section.

We're back under way at the Millerntor. Augsburg boss Jess Thorup has brought Maier on for Rexhbecaj at half-time.

Weißhaupt goes down on the right-hand side of the box, but the referees sees nothing out of order. Play continues.

The hosts' chances of winning have increased significantly based on their performance thus far.

Unable to find a way past Pauli's defence, the visitors are yet to conjure their first shot on goal at the Millerntor. And it's almost half-time.

The statistics very much match what we've seen so far. Almost 70 per cent of all attacks by Pauli are coming down the right – that is, via Guilavogui, who also set up the goal.

The hosts have conceded just 21 goals this season. Only Bayern (16) have done better. It won't be easy for Augsburg to get back into the game here.

At 18 years and 2 months old, Noahkai Banks has become the youngest own-goal scorer in Bundesliga history, replacing Vladimir Maljkovic, who was around 2 months older when he scored his own-goal for Frankfurt in December 2000.

After fifteen minutes, it is clear that both teams are playing with great physical commitment and are staying solid at the back. St. Pauli are putting a little more pressure on in attack, but there has not yet been a shot on target.

The number of passes is increasing and St. Pauli are playing around the opposing third. However, the crosses so far have not found any takers. Meanwhile, Augsburg are yet created any chances.

Tonight's match has been selected as part of a pilot project. Referee Tobias Reichel will explain his decision to the fans via microphone in the event of a VAR correction.

After the minute's silence, Hosts St. Pauli, in brown, kick off against Augsburg, decked out in white.

As expected, Eric Smith returns to the starting line-up for St. Pauli after serving a yellow-card suspension, while Lars Ritzka, who is also injured, is absent. This is the only change for the Hamburgers compared to the previous week. Like his opposite number, Jess Thorup is only making one change to his team from last weekend. Kristijan Jakić, who was missing last week through injury, is set to start instead of Arne Maier (bench).

St. Pauli sit atop the rnaking for the second half of the season with six points and a goal difference of 5:0, while Augsburg are in second place with six points and a goal difference of 4:1.

Not one of the seven competitive duels between FC St. Pauli and FC Augsburg (six in Bundesliga 2, one in the Bundesliga) has ended goalless.

As part of the Remembrance Day in German Football initiative, St. Pauli have been granted permission to hold a minute's silence before kick-off against Augsburg to commemorate the victims of the Nazi regime. Both teams will also carry a banner stating 'No forgiveness' and 'No forgetting' as they take to the pitch.

Augsburg could set two club records on Matchday 20: most consecutive Bundesliga wins (four) and most consecutive away wins (three). However, in three previous visits, they've never won a game at St. Pauli.
