Augsburg
“Fuggers” in the last draw of the Bundesliga had an excellent chance to compete for the European Cup zone. It seemed that the team did not have enough strength at the end, so you can explain the series of five defeats at the finish. As a result, Augsburg took the 11th line, and the gap from the eighth European place amounted to only three points.
This summer, the team held two control meetings, first they beat Schwaben Augsburg from the regional league - 3:0, and then managed to lose to the representative of South Africa TS Gelaxi - 1:2. The “Fuggers” have a reputation of unpredictable middleweights of the elite of German soccer.
Leicester
“Foxes” last season spent last season in the Championships, managing to win their division, thanks to this achievement, the club returned to the APL. Now Leicester is preparing for a return to the elite, where it will be extremely difficult.
The team played three meetings in the summer, defeated Villarreal and Shrewsbury with the same score 2:1, and in the last match there was a defeat from Palermo - 0:1. The battle against the representative of the Bundesliga will be another good test before the start of the season, where it will be necessary to establish themselves in the elite of English soccer.
