Struggling Augsburg will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Bayer Leverkusen in the upcoming league round. It’s 13th vs 5th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.
- Augsburg haven’t played a single 0-0 game at home.
- Bayer Leverkusen has the fewest conceded goals in the first half (7) in Bundesliga
The visiting Bayer Leverkusen played their last game only three days ago, a Europa League match. That game, against Young Boys, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Bayer Leverkusen.
Augsburg form and stats
With 3 Bundesliga wins, 2 draws and 6 defeats from their home games, Augsburg are certainly not brimming with confidence. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Augsburg to get some points in this home game.
In their previous game, the manager H. Herrlich led his Augsburg to a defeat in the Bundesliga match away at RB Leipzig. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at WWK Arena. Prior to that, an away loss at RB Leipzig.
The Augsburg fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 11 in 11 matches. Augsburg have conceded 19 from these games.
Bayer Leverkusen form and stats
5-2-3 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Bayer Leverkusen, who have the fewest conceded goals (8) away in Bundesliga, in their Bundesliga matches away. Three consecutive losses in away matches means Leverkusen are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.
Leverkusen lost away at Young Boys (3-4) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. A 2-2 draw was the result before that, hosting Mainz 05 in the Bundesliga.
A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Bayer Leverkusen, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Young Boys in just four days.
Leverkusen has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 16 goals from 10 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (8 so far). It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
