Bayer Leverkusen vs Augsburg Prediction & Betting Tips - Bundesliga

Prediction published on 18/05/2024, 00:43  by Sridhar in Bundesliga Predictions

Bayer Leverkusen could create history by remaining unbeaten against Augsburg as the Bundesliga season comes to an end. This match at the BayArena in Leverkusen on Saturday will see the hosts target at least a draw to end the league campaign unbeaten, while the visitors start tenth with 39 points. Leverkusen have won 27 and drawn six of their matches in the league campaign, en route to winning the title with 87 points to their credit. They can become the first team in Bundesliga history to complete an entire campaign without losing a match. They are also unbeaten in 50 games, which is an all-time European record. With finals against Kaiserlautern and Atalanta in the DFB Pokal and the Europa League in the wait, this game could see Leverkusen do their best to continue that momentum.

Augsburg are perhaps planning for the end of the season, having lost their way lately. They have lost five of their last six league games, including four in a row. Three of those recent four defeats saw them concede at least three goals, but they would like to step up as they come up against the champions. A chance to become the first team to defeat Leverkusen in this league campaign beckons, but as was seen in the 1-0 defeat in the reverse fixture, they may not have the quality for the job. Even on the road, Augsburg have lost three games in a row, although two consecutive wins prior to that sequence suggest they may be a dangerous side to face.
