Bayer Leverkusen vs Augsburg Prediction & Betting tips
This round of play is scheduled for a Monday-evening game that fans hated in the Bundesliga. Bayer Leverkusen takes on FC Augsburg in their own stadium.
Bayer Leverkusen:
In the Bundesliga, Bayer Leverkusen is not doing very well in the first weeks of the season. In the first three rounds of play, Peter Bosz’s team had to settle for a draw each time. Only last weekend was Die Werkself won for the first time. On a visit to FSV Mainz 05, Leverkusen was clearly the better team, only the red-blacks made it difficult for themselves, by leaving many opportunities unused. In the end, they did not run into problems against the weak Mainz. A hit by Lucas Alario was enough for the victory (0-1).
In the Bundesliga, Leverkusen only scored three times in four games, but in the Europa League, the team knows how to find it a lot easier. Last Thursday, Bayer opened its European year with a home game against OGC Nice. Leverkusen was a lot more effective than in his previous matches. The French were sent back home with a big 6-2 defeat. Compared to that game, Bosz could opt to bring some fresh forces on Monday. The Leverkusen selection is wide enough for this.
Augsburg:
FC Augsburg started this season well. After three rounds of play, the club from Bavaria was even (shared) leader in the Bundesliga. Last week, the top match against RB Leipzig for Die Fuggerstädter was on the program. In that game it turned out – unsurprisingly – that Augsburg had lived a bit above its means. Leipzig was qualitatively too strong for FCA. A defensive tactic by Augsburg also ensured that they themselves could not take many offensive risks. After ninety minutes there was a 0-2 score on the scoreboard.
“We made too many small mistakes in this match,” attacker Michael Gregoritsch analyzed after the lost match. “Ultimately, Leipzig is the deserved winner.” You can of course lose matches like the one against Leipzig as Augsburg. With the current selection, however, the team of trainer Heiko Herrlich is certainly not a big relegation candidate. In the majority of matches Augsburg has chances to grab points.
