Bayern München - Augsburg betting tips and odds

With the 1.13 odds on a home win, there’s little doubt that Bayern München will win the match on Saturday. Augsburg winning would be one of the biggest upsets of the season, but we wouldn’t hold our breaths for that to happen.

Though it may not be particularly attractive to punters, this match is at least easy to predict. Anything but a Home Win is probably wishful thinking for Augsburg, whose victory has been priced at a hefty 21.00.

The last performance we saw from The Bavarians must be good for their confidence, even if everyone saw the 1:4 away win coming. A relaxed first half might be a warning sign but it still led into a crushing defeat for Freiburg in the second period.

Augsburg are bursting with confidence after their latest Bundesliga home victory. Despite being tagged clear underdogs in the matchup against Mainz 05, they were ahead at both half time and the final whistle.

Bayern Munich are on a bit of a streak when it comes to scoring. With more than 9 over their last 3 matches, fans are feeling fairly confident in their goal-scoring ability. Likewise, bookmakers online are fairly confident the Saturday match will yield Over 4.5 goals.

The away team’s previous three away games left a lot to be desired when it comes to how they perform defensively. Over 5 conceded goals in just 3 matches is never a good look, even if you’re playing as visitors.

This is the second time these two teams will clash as part of the current Bundesliga season. Augsburg won the first time around, though it was a rather close victory and most bookies are expecting this match to end differently.

Before going for any betting predictions, we need to make note of the overall high number of prior injuries. Both sides have been hit: Alphonso Davies, Bouna Sarr, Corentin Tolisso, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting for the hosts, and Felix Uduokhai, Noah Joel Sarenren Bazee, Fredrik Jensen, Tobias Strobl for the visitors. Needless to say, this may impact the teams’ performance.

Based on the information available, a Draw/Home in the HT/FT market is a more likely outcome than the 4.50 odds are implying. It’s still a risky bet to take, but it offers strong value.
