There should be a significant difference in quality between these teams based on table positions so far, with RB Leipzig leading Augsburg by 19 points.
- RB Leipzig has the fewest conceded goals (17) in Bundesliga
- RB Leipzig have scored at least twice as many goals at home as Augsburg have scored away.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
RB Leipzig form and stats
RB Leipzig, who have the fewest conceded goals (17) in Bundesliga, have been outstanding at home so far in the Bundesliga with 8 wins, 1 draw and only 1 loss. RB Leipzig has recorded two wins in a row here at Red Bull Arena, increasing their hopes of victory in this match.
The Leipzig goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 220 minutes without conceding a goal in the Bundesliga.
RB Leipzig are returning here after visiting Schalke 04 in a Bundesliga game and winning with a 3-0 scoreline. Nordi Mukiele, Willi Orbán and Marcel Sabitzer scored the goal(s). Previous to that game, a DFB Pokal home match hosting Bochum in a game that was won 4-0.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Liverpool are coming to town in four days.
A decent goal production from Leipzig in their home games so far, with 19 goals from 10 league matches. From these home matches, Leipzig have conceded only 6 goals. It's worth mentioning that 3 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Augsburg form and stats
As the visiting team in Bundesliga matches, Augsburg have produced an overall stat of 3-2-4 so far. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Augsburg have lost on their last two travels.
Augsburg failed to get anything from their last game, a Bundesliga home match vs Wolfsburg (placed 3rd) that ended with defeat 0-2. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Borussia Dortmund wasn't a success with a 1-3 loss.
It's a bit worrying for Augsburg that their goalkeeper Rafał Gikiewicz made six saves in the Wolfsburg game last time out, but still couldn't prevent the loss.
As mentioned above, the bookmakers do not believe the away team will get anything from this match. Checking Augsburg's match history for similar games we find two matches. The home team won two of these as expected, two of them by at least two goals. Augsburg managed zero draws and zero surprise wins.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Augsburg have scored 9 goals in 9 league games away. As opposed to that, Augsburg have seen the ball go into their own net 13 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
Augsburg - Leipzig 0-2 was the story when these teams last met, earlier this season. As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's six RB Leipzig victories, three draws and one Augsburg win. Over/under statistics; five of these games ended with three goals or more, five matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
