Augsburg vs Bayern Prediction: Match Preview

Bayern Munich are second in the table with 10 points from four games. They have won three and drawn one, scoring 14 goals and conceding only 2. In addition, their last game before the break was a crushing 7-0 home win over Union Berlin. That result showed how dangerous this attack can be.

Augsburg, on the other hand, have made a strong start. They sit fourth on 7 points, with two wins, one draw and one defeat. They have scored 11 goals, the third-highest total in the league. However, they also conceded three in a 3-2 defeat at Werder Bremen before the break. Therefore, their defence could be exposed against Bayern's attack.

Head-to-Head Record

Bayern have dominated this fixture over the years. Across 34 meetings, they have won 27, drawn 2 and lost only 5. Still, Augsburg caused a big upset last season with a 2-1 win in Munich in January 2026. Here are the last five results:

  • Jan 2026 (Away): Bayern 1-2 Augsburg

Notably, Augsburg's last three home games against Bayern all produced at least four goals, and Augsburg scored in every one of them.

Augsburg vs Bayern form guide and head-to-head

Key Battle: Bayern's Attack vs Augsburg's Back Line

Bayern average 3.5 goals per game this season, and they create chances from every area of the pitch. Augsburg concede more than a goal per game, so they will need a near-perfect defensive display. However, Augsburg are dangerous going forward and will not simply sit deep. If they press high, Bayern will find space behind them. For that reason, this has all the signs of an open game.

What to Expect at the WWK Arena

Expect Bayern to dominate possession from the start and push Augsburg back. The home side will try to use the energy of their crowd and hit Bayern on the break. Set pieces could also matter in a game with so many attacking players. Meanwhile, Bayern know that a slip here would let Dortmund pull further clear. For that reason, they should play with intensity from the first whistle.
