Both Augsburg and Borussia Dortmund will be looking to get back on track this weekend in the Bundesliga after being beaten in their previous fixtures. But, which of the German sides will land maximum points when they clash on Saturday?
Bundesliga Preview
There will be pressure on both German sides when Dortmund and Augsburg clash this weekend, as both will be looking to get back on track after recent defeats. There will likely be increased pressure on the visitors, as Dortmund are quickly losing ground on the top four spots in the standings after winning just once across their last five matches in the competition.
They come into the upcoming round of matches sitting four points behind Leipzig in fourth, while they are already eleven points off the pace being set by Leverkusen this term at the top of the standings. Dortmund’s misery was compounded last weekend, as they were handed a defeat at home against Leipzig. They always faced an uphill challenge in that fixture against Mats Hummels was sent off after just 15 minutes.
Augsburg will also be looking for a response this weekend, as they were beaten in their previous fixture in the Bundesliga. That loss leaves the German side sitting ninth in the standings, but they could move to within striking distance of a European spot if they are able to get back to winning ways this weekend.
It was a disappointing performance by Augsburg last weekend, as their unbeaten sequence was snapped by Werder Bremen. The visitors managed to record just a single shot on target in that defeat, and much more will be required in the final third if they are to bounce back to winning ways this weekend.
Augsburg vs Borussia Dortmund Head to Head
Dortmund landed a 3-0 success in this exact fixture last term, which means that they have now won four of their previous five league matches against Augsburg. In fact, Augsburg have recorded just one win in their last eight against Dortmund, with that success coming in September 2020.
Augsburg vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction
Dortmund’s excellent record in this fixture looks to be the trend to follow this weekend, as they bid to bounce back to winning ways in the Bundesliga. We expect them to claim maximum points on the road, but both teams may find the back of the net.
