FC Augsburg

vs

FC Bayern Munich

Preview

Augsburg

• Manuel Baum has had the club playing a certain way since he joined on 2 December 2025.
• They will sit deep and look to keep their structure as they try to nick chances at the other end, either on the break or from set pieces.
• Augsburg have been solid at home recently, with one win and two draws in their last three games.
• Their last three results were a 2-2 draw with Bayer Leverkusen, a 3-2 away defeat to Werder Bremen and a 2-2 draw with Hertha in a friendly.

Bayern

• Bayern are the clear favorites at 1.21.
• Vincent Kompany has Bayern playing with control and edge since he took over on 29 May 2024.
• Their possession-based, high-line pressing style won't be suited to Augsburg's more compact and transition style.
• Bayern's last three results were a 5-0 win at home against FK Bodo Glimt, a 2-1 win away at Elversberg and a 7-0 victory at home to Union Berlin.
• Bayern come into this game having won two and drawn one of their three away games in Bundesliga 2026/2027 and have conceded only one goal on their travels.

• Bayern have won two of the last three meetings.
• Augsburg were victors the last time they met in Bundesliga 2025/2026 when they won 2-1 away from home.
