Augsburg vs Dortmund Prediction & Betting Tips (26 October)

While it was able to give itself some air last year by offering itself fairly comfortable support, FC Augsburg once again finds itself struggling in the Bundesliga. This team has not been able to grab more than 7 points during the first 7 days and it remains stuck in 15th place in the standings, tied on points with play-off Sankt Pauli. Worrying, the Bavarians have lost 3 of their last 4 matches. Dominated by Mainz 2-3 and by Leipzig 4-0, they were able to achieve their one and only success of the season before the break against Borussia Mönchengladbach 2-1. But this joy was short-lived for Augsburg who quickly fell back on the field of Friborg 3-1 last weekend. Expected to battle in the title race, Borussia Dortmund is not on time at the level crossing points.

The BVB has indeed lost too many feathers along the way and it now finds itself in 7th position in the ranking, already 4 lengths behind the two co-leaders, Bayern and Leipzig. Disappointing on the road like against Stuttgart 5-1 and Union Berlin 2-1 before the international break, Nuri Sahin's players were still able to achieve a narrow success last week against Sankt Pauli 2-1. On the other hand, the Borussen started well in the Champions League with cards won against Club Bruges 0-3 and Celtic 7-1. Tuesday evening, they will face Real Madrid in a remake of the last C1 final.

For this match, FC Augsburg must deal with the loss of replacement goalkeeper Klein and defenders Gunmy and Pedersen who are injured. In addition, defender Schlotterbeck and midfielder Vargas will not be able to play this match either.

On the other hand, the former Ligue 2 player Samuel Essende (ex Caen and Pau), who scored twice this year, is present in the same way as the former Niçois and Lensois Claude-Maurice (1 goal) and the striker Tietz (2 goals), who saved the honor against Friborg last week.
