Red Bull Leipzig take on the visitors Augsburg in the round 6 match of German Bundesliga. The match will be played at Red Bull Arena (Leipzig) on Friday, September 30th.
Newly-promoted Leipzig open the matchday with clash against Augsburg. The hosts are the breakthrough of the start of the season in Bundesliga. Red Bull are currently on seventh place in the standings and haven’t suffered a single defeat in their first ever season in top division. The team impresses with organized defensive line, allowing only four goals in five matches (third result behind Koln and Bayern).
Home results of Leipzig is another story. Full stadium forces their favorites to battle for every ball on any part of the field. Leipzig faced two Borussia, who are showing excellent attacking football, and allowed only one goal in this two matches. Moreover, Red Bull allowed only two shots on goals in these two matches, which is impressive achievement. When Dortmund score two against Real Madrid, net five at Wolfsburg and managed to take on shot on goal at Leipzig, it means a lot.
Such impressive record leaves small chances to Augsburg to score at Red Bull Arena. The visiotrs scored only four goals in five matches and they won’t be able to count on their key players Kaubi and Bobadilla. Leipzig proved themselves as quite pragmatic team and Augsburg don’t look like the side who is able to cause troubles to the hosts at their stadium where big teams failed so there are big chances to see a low-scoring result.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals.
