A similar library to what Gribouillis posted is TheFuzz(eailer called fuzzywuzzy).
Test.

from thefuzz import fuzz

list1 = ["Augsburg II", "Turkgucu Munchen", "Bayern II"]
list2 = ["Augburg II", "Turkgucu Munich", "Baye II"]

>>> fuzz.ratio(list1[0], list2[0])
95
>>> fuzz.ratio(list1[1], list2[1])
90
>>> fuzz.ratio(list1[2], list2[2])
88

Then can decided what ratio is ok to make it similar enuff,let say that choose 90.

from thefuzz import fuzz

list1 = ["Augsburg II", "Turkgucu Munchen", "Bayern II"]
list2 = ["Augburg II", "Turkgucu Munich", "Baye II"]


list3 = []
for l1, l2 in zip(list1, list2):
    if fuzz.ratio(l1, l2) >= 90:
        #print(f'{l1} = {l2}')
        list3.append(f'{l1} = {l2}')

print(list3)

Output:
['Augsburg II = Augburg II', 'Turkgucu Munchen = Turkgucu Munich']
