Augsburg vs Bayern Munich Prediction & Betting tips
A Bavarian derby is scheduled for Saturday. Bayern Munich travels to the west of the state for the away match against FC Augsburg.
FC Augsburg:
At FC Augsburg it is good to look for highlights for now. In the first seven games, Die Fuggerstädter only stepped out of the field once. In the competition two weeks ago, things went quite wrong for Augsburg. Visiting Borussia Mönchengladbach, the team from West Bavaria played a disastrous first half. They were rested with a 4-0 deficit. Eventually Augsburg was lucky that the difference remained four (5-1).
Goalkeeper Tomas Koubek did not play too strong a role in the match of two weeks ago. “We have a lot of faith in him,” said trainer Martin Schmidt at the weekly press conference. “He was also critical of himself,” the coach said of his goalkeeper. Jeffrey Gouweleeuw did not play for a minute this season. However, the central defender is fit again and could make his return. Given the many goals scored, Schmidt could give other defenders the chance.
FC Bayern:
Bayern also suffered a defeat two weeks ago. That this happened to the country champion was a big surprise, especially since it happened in a home game. TSG Hoffenheim, which until then was moderately performing, was too strong in Munich with 1-2. Bayern played somewhat comfortably and was presented with the bill. With a little more fortune, others could still have won – the most and the best chances were for the Niko Kovac team.
Since the other title candidates also miss points, there is still no man overboard for the Munich people. For Kovac and the rest of the technical staff it was this week to wait and see with which fitness all the internationals would come back from their national teams. It doesn’t look bad for Bayern. Only Serge Gnabry has minor complaints. David Alaba and Leon Goretzka can be used again, although they will most likely not be in the base.
