Augsburg vs RB Leipzig Predictions, Tips & Predictions

Augsburg vs RB Leipzig
German Bundesliga
Date: Saturday, October 17, 2024
Starts at 14:30pm UK / 15:30pm CET
Venue: WWK Arena.

After last season's inspiring campaign that saw them go on a long run in the Champions League, the Red Bulls and their young coach appear to have picked up right where they left off.

They climbed to the top of the table with a 100% unbeaten record and scored goals for fun in the process.

Now, they have a chance to extend their lead at the top as they face runners-up Fuggetstadter.

Heiko Herrlich's charges also have an unbeaten run so far, even defeating Dortmund in the second game of the season.

However, they are the weakest here, considering how they have been dominated in the recent past in h2h crashes, by this opponent. In fact, over the last seven years, they have recorded a total of one h2h win over this opponent.

Probably expect Leipzig to be the best team on the field this weekend.

Augsburg vs Leipzig: Head to Head (h2h)

• The last time these two horns met was three months ago, and then Julien Nagelsmann's men won 1-2 away from home.
• They had also won 3-1 at home in the previous meeting.
• It's been three years since you lost to this opponent.
• The hosts secured a total of one victory in that entire decade at this stadium.

Augsburg vs Leipzig: Prediction

Fuggerstadter drew 0-0 away from home in the last round, against Wolfsburg. Meanwhile, the Red Bulls recorded a 4-0 win at home last week against Schalke.

Moving on, Nagelsmann's men have been on the rise for the last few months. They were excellent at the recently completed UCL, and now they've continued their form in the Bundesliga.

As of now, they are the best in the competition, having also been undefeated in 21 of their previous 23 matches. The two defeats were against Dormund and PSG, two of the best teams in the world.

In addition, they are also on a ten-match unbeaten away streak, having even won five of their previous six away trips. In the process, the team also scored a total of 22 goals in their last nine away games.

On top of all that, they've also dominated h2h meetings for the past decade. They had even defeated the same opponents with a score of 1-2 just three months ago.

As such, Leipzig are expected to be the winners this Saturday.
