Bayern Munich vs. Augsburg Betting Preview
Bayern Munich
It’s rare that Bayern Munich has found themselves in a scrap for the Bundesliga title in recent seasons, but that’s exactly where they find themselves this term. The Bavarian giants sit top of the standings at present, but only courtesy of their superior goal difference over Borussia Dortmund. Bayern has won just 14 of their 23 games this term, while they have been held to the second-highest number of draws.
But, the confidence will be oozing out of this team on Saturday, as they picked up their biggest win of the season in midweek. Bayern was excellent from start to finish against PSG, and they deservingly ran out 2-0 winners on the night, and 3-0 victors on aggregate. Domestically, the Bavarian giants have continued to showcase their dominance in front of goal throughout this term, as they have recorded more shots on target than any other side.
There is a growing feeling that Bayern is about to hit their peak form this season, as they are getting some of their key players back in peak condition. Sadio Mane could be in line to make his first start for Bayern this week since picking up an injury before the start of the World Cup in November. It may be unwise to make Bayern Munich game predictions against the hosts this weekend.
Augsburg
It has been a decent campaign to this point for Augsburg, as they are likely where they expected to be in the league standings at this stage. At present, they sit 13th, and hold an eight-point advantage over the teams in the bottom three positions. They also come into this match after picking up two wins from their last three Bundesliga fixtures, and three victories from their last five.
Augsburg would have taken confidence from the previous meeting between the sides this term, as they registered a 1-0 win in the reverse fixture. That was a monumental result, as it ended Bayern’s run of scoring in 87 consecutive matches in the Bundesliga. But, Augsburg’s away form would be a massive concern coming into this fixture at the Allianz Arena, as they have lost each of their four in 2023.
Augsburg has been a slight bogey side for Bayern under Julian Nagelsmann, as the Munich boss has lost two of his three matches against this weekend’s opponents. But, the visitors have a number of huge injury concerns this weekend, as they will be without six first-team players, including Elvis Rexhbecaj, Felix Uduokhai, and Andre Hahn.
Bayern Munich vs. Augsburg Betting Picks
Bayern looked incredibly sharp in their second-leg win over PSG in midweek, with a growing number of their attacking players coming back into form.
We find it hard to bet against the hosts in the Bayern Munich vs Augsburg odds this weekend, and we could see them running out comprehensive winners by a wide scoreline. Therefore, the best value this weekend could come in the spread market.
- Pick: Bayern Munich (-2) -120
