So, after a rare exciting international break, we’re back to league action. That means we’re also back to predicting your favourite games across the world.
I’m taking a look at Friday's game where Vincent Kompany’s Bayern Munich team host Jess Thorup’s FC Augsburg.
Bayern Munich will be extremely happy with their start to the season, given they look a lot like reclaiming the title which usually ends up with them at the end of the season.
Augsburg sit just four points off the relegation play-off spots, so wins at this stage of the season will be vital.
Bayern Munich Predicted Line-up - Manuel Neuer; Alphonso Davies, Kim Min-Jae, Dayot Upamecano, Raphael Guerreiro; Leon Goretzka, Joshua Kimmich; Kingsley Coman, Jamal Musiala, Michael Olise; Harry Kane
Bayern Munich have looked unstoppable this season, and will almost certainly have their name inscribed on the trophy come the end of the season.
They’re yet to lose a game this season, and scoring 3.3 goals per game tells you all you need to know.
Harry Kane will be vital, he’s been in red-hot form in front of goal this season.
FC Augsburg Predicted Line-up - Nediljko Labrovic; Keven Schlotterbeck, Jeffery Gouweleeuw, Chrislain Matsima; Dimitrios Giannoulis, Frank Onyeka, Kristijan Jakic, Arne Maier, Marius Wolfe; Philip Tietz, Alexis Claude-Maurice
Whilst Augbsurg haven’t been terrible by any means of the word this year, they’ve struggled to turn draws into wins, hence why they sit so low in the league standings.
They did manage a 2-1 win over Dortmund earlier in the season, which shows the potential they have to perform with this squad.
Both Tietz and Claude-Maurice have three goals apiece this season, so they’ll want to get on the scoresheet here.
These two sides have met 32 times since 2008. Among them, Bayern have won 25, and Augsburg have won five.
Two matches have resulted in draws.
27th January 2024 - Augsburg 2-3 Bayern Munich - Bundesliga
27th August 2023 - Bayern Munich 3-1 Augsburg - Bundesliga
11th March 2023 - Bayern Munich 5-3 Augsburg - Bundesliga
19th October 2022 - Augsburg 2-5 Bayern Munich - DFB Pokal
17th September 2022 - Augsburg 1-0 Bayern Munich - Bundesliga
I do think there’s more to come from Augsburg this season, but that doesn’t mean it’s going to click away at the Allianz.
Bayern will be too fluid and clinical in attacking areas for Augsburg to even think about winning this game.
Overall we think the best bet to place for this game would be Bayern Munich to win, over 1.5 goals & Harry Kane to score, backed up by our research.
Odds of 4/7 on Ladbrokes mean that a £10 bet has the potential to return up to £15.70 in this match.
(odds subject to change)
Bayern Munich 3-0 FC Augsburg
Bayern’s strength in attack will prove far too much for their opponents.
At the same time, Getafe take on Real Valladolid.
