• Stuttgart vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction: Bundesliga Match Match on 15.04.2023

Bundesliga Preview

RB Leipzig moved back into the Champions League spots in the Bundesliga last weekend, and they could climb an additional place this weekend if they are able to pick up maximum points against Augsburg. Leipzig was made to work very hard for their success last weekend, but they held on strongly to a 1-0 win against Hertha Berlin. 

In all competitions, Leipzig has now won their previous two matches without conceding a goal. They have also progressed this term, as they have picked up more points than they did at this stage of last season. However, they will need to sharpen up in the final third, as they have taken a league-high of 52 shots over their previous three league matches, and have scored on just one occasion. 

Augsburg will be on the road this weekend, as they bid to pick up a first win in four league matches. They will still have one eye over their shoulders, as they sit just six points clear of the bottom three places in the league standings. Augsburg has suffered two defeats in their previous four matches, but a victory this weekend could see them rise a place. 

However, last weekend’s loss was their 14th of the season. They have never suffered more defeats than that total over 27 rounds of fixtures in Bundesliga history. Meanwhile, they have only suffered a longer winless streak than their current one between matchdays nine and 16 earlier this term. 

RB Leipzig vs Augsburg Head to Head

Augsburg is winless in their last ten matches against Leipzig in the Bundesliga. Over that period, they have suffered six defeats. However, Leipzig conceded three in a single game for the first time in the reverse fixture, but they were able to fight back from 3-0 down to register a 3-3 draw.

RB Leipzig vs Augsburg Prediction

Leipzig’s record against Augsburg is incredibly difficult to overlook for this fixture on Saturday. Therefore, we expect the hosts to pick up maximum points, and we could see them achieving that by a 2-0 scoreline.
