Augsburg - Borussia Dortmund predictions

The 4.59 odds on a home win result mark the hosts as clear underdogs. Things are fairly lopsided, in fact, so backing such an outcome would be quite a longshot.

Having a 1.70 selection on your slip can be a big boost to your potential winnings and with Borussia Dortmund largely expected to beat Augsburg, you’d be wise to use it.

Augsburg’s defeat in their previous home game was painful, but it can’t really be used to judge their form. After all, they were up against RB Leipzig , who are widely considered much stronger. Augsburg were already behind at the half-time mark, and they didn’t fair much better later on, which all resulted in a devastating 0:6 loss.

Their fans hoped Borussia D. would have run riot over Köln last time out in the Bundesliga. They played at home as firm favourites to ease to victory but they nevertheless struggled to break the deadlock during the first 45 minutes. In the end, it all came to one goal that made all the difference in a 1:0 win.

Augsburg have been struggling to keep the ball out of their net lately. For instance, their previous 3 Bundesliga matches were marked by more than 5 goals conceded in total.

It’s highly unlikely that this match will end up with a score of 0:0. Borussia Dortmund, for instance, haven’t had a goalless match for 7 rounds now.

If Team from Dortmund maintain the strong form they’ve displayed so far they’ll be on their way to the Champions League. The title is still within their reach as well, but that just means lower-placed teams have time to catch up.

Both teams will have a complete lineup for an exciting showdown, thanks to the absence of injuries or suspensions.

An Under 3.5 Goals bet is an interesting choice for this match. It’s quite safe as you might expect, but the 1 odds offer more in the way of betting value than you would think.
