The season is still fairly new and the Bundesliga table has to be read with caution. So far Bayer Leverkusen find themselves in 9th position and Augsburg are placed 6th.
Leverkusen have less rest than Augsburg in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Europa League game only four days ago. Thankfully the previous game, versus Nice, was also a home game here at BayArena. The away team is better rested.
Bayer Leverkusen form and stats
A Bundesliga draw at home so far for Bayer Leverkusen. Last season their home statistics were 9 wins, 4 draws and 4 defeats from 17 matches.
Bayer Leverkusen's previous game was a Europa League match also played at home, ending 6-2 versus Nice. The home side are looking to build on that result. In the game before, an away victory in the Bundesliga match versus Mainz 05 with a 1-0 scoreline.
As mentioned above, Leverkusen "killed" Nice in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Bayer Leverkusen's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played six games, won four matches, drawn one and lost one.
There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Leverkusen as they are travelling to their away game against Slavia Praha in the Europa League. That match is three days after this one.
At BayArena, Bayer Leverkusen has the goal stats of 1-1 (for/against) from 1 league fixture.
Augsburg form and stats
Augsburg are still undefeated on their travels in the Bundesliga. They have only played two games though, winning one and drawing the other.
Augsburg aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 216 league minutes without a goal. D. Caligiuri was the last player to find the net.
Augsburg's previous game was their home loss versus RB Leipzig (0-2). A home win before that, celebrating 2-0 vs Borussia Dortmund.
As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Augsburg playing away, we found five games. Results were zero away wins, two draws and three home wins.
3 goals so far away for Augsburg, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 1. All from 2 league matches away.
Head 2 Head
H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Bayer Leverkusen five wins, five draws and Augsburg zero victories. As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six games had two or less.Bayer Leverkusen missing players
