FC Augsburg form and stats

FC Augsburg have played three Bundesliga home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 0 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. Game days at WWK Arena have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Augsburg as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.

Happy days for FC Augsburg in their previous game, a fixture away at Werder Bremen (placed 9th) that ended with a 1-0 victory. Finally, a league victory after three matches without. Gikiewicz loved the game against Werder Bremen. With a stunning seven saves the goalkeeper played a huge part in the 1-0 victory. Goalkeeper Gikiewicz got the top rating on the team in that game; 9.12 out of ten. Gikiewicz saved a penalty and topped it up with a clean sheet.

Preceding that match was the home game against Hertha BSC that was lost 0-2.

The home team are doomed in this game if you believe the odds offered on FC Bayern München to win. Let's see if Augsburg are capable of creating a surprise here by looking at their earlier home games as massive outsiders: 4 games found revealing 1 FC Augsburg win, 1 draw and 2 defeats.

FC Augsburg have scored 1 goal here in 3 league matches, a depressing statistic. Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, Augsburg having conceded 8 goals here at WWK Arena so far. When FC Augsburg hosts teams that live on the top of the table (like Bochum, Hertha BSC, VfB Stuttgart, Bayer 04 Leverkusen and Wolfsburg), the matches have ended over 2.5 goals 2 of 2 times.

FC Bayern München form and stats

FC Bayern München are happy with their away performances in the Bundesliga so far, having secured two victories and one draw from their first three travels.

The club members enjoyed FC Bayern München's previous game versus Barcelona, a Champions League win (2-0) played at home. Midfielder Kimmich was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 8.0. Kimmich served one assist, hit one key pass and had 51 successful passes (of 61 total).

Preceding that match was the 2-2 draw at home vs VfB Stuttgart.

As mentioned earlier, München will not be satisfied unless they get a comfortable victory in this game. Performing as huge favourites away from home has earlier resulted in 11 wins (9 by two or more goals winning margin), 1 draw and 2 surprising defeats.

The prediction for this game is lots of goals as FC Bayern München alone have scored more than three on average in their league games away (14 from 3 played). It's not easy to score on München as they have only conceded 2 goals from these away games.

Head 2 Head
