WWK Arena – Augsburg

Augsburg
Augsburg was beaten 3-0 by TSG Hoffenheim last weekend, their fourth defeat in five Bundesliga games. That was too much for the club’s board, who immediately sacked head coach Sandro Wagner. Now, Augsburg’s former coach, Manuel Baum, will take interim charge until the club finds a permanent solution.
The coaching change was long overdue, because Augsburg have been consistently struggling for a couple of years now. Interestingly, they have not beaten a top-six side in 31 straight matches, drawing 9 and losing 22.
In this Bundesliga season, Augsburg has already suffered 8 defeats in 12 games, which is their worst all-time record at this stage of a Bundesliga season.
Bayer Leverkusen
Bayer Leverkusen won four of their last six Bundesliga games and sits in the top four of the table. After losing 1-2 against Borussia Dortmund in the Bundesliga last weekend, they got their revenge by beating them 0-1 in Dortmund in their midweek cup game.
Confidence has been restored, and now they travel to Augsburg in a higher team atmosphere. Augsburg has been one of their all-time favourite opponents, and they have beaten them in all their last four Bundesliga duels.
This game should also produce some goals, considering all of Bayer Leverkusen’s last four Bundesliga games ended with three or more goals scored.
The Betting Verdict
Augsburg is in poor form, without a coach, and in a bad team atmosphere. It will take some time before they fully stabilise, and I don’t see them well prepared to surprise the in-form side of Bayer Leverkusen at the moment.
The odds on the away win are even better than I expected, so take Bayer Leverkusen to keep the good run going against Augsburg by winning the match.
