RB Leipzig hosts Augsburg in round 21 of the German Bundesliga. The match will be played on Friday, February 12th at Red Bull Arena (Leipzig)
RB Leipzig is approaching the start of the Champions League playoffs in good shape. By the way, the risk of a forfeit defeat doesn’t threaten the team anymore. Due to quarantine restrictions, Liverpool was not allowed to enter Germany, but the teams agreed to hold a "home" match for the Germans in Budapest. It will take place on January 16th, and that is why the organizers of the Bundesliga have shifted the game of RB Leipzig to Friday. Perhaps Julian Nagelsmann will risk using the rotation because his men have gained good momentum. The Bulls won three matches in a row, and all of them ended with clean sheets. They beat Bayer Leverkusen (1:0) and Schalke (0:3) in the championship and scored four unanswered goals against Bochum in the Cup.

Augsburg was actively gaining points up to the middle of December. The point baggage created then (combined with the frankly mediocre statistics of the three outsiders) allows Heiko Herrlich's charges to feel relatively calm now. However, the results of the last two months cannot be called encouraging. Taking into account the cup, the Fuggers have lost seven of their last nine matches. Yes, they recently managed to beat unyielding Union Berlin, but after that they lost to Borussia Dortmund with a 2-goal difference (they opened the scoring quickly but conceded three goals in response by the middle of the 2nd half). And Wolfsburg beat Augsburg with the same goal difference in the last round (Veghorst scored in the 38th minute and assisted Baku in the 59th). Nevertheless, the Fuggers have 22 points, while Arminia and Hertha have 17. Mainz and Schalke together scored less than Herrlich's team, so it looks like a pair of absolute outsiders has already been formed.
Previously, Augsburg quite often took points from RB Leipzig. But under Nagelsmann, the Bulls beat their opponents in four games in a row. In the current season, they have gained victories both in the championship (2-0) and in the cup (3-0). Now RB Leipzig has every chance to extend its successful streak. We recommend betting on the Bulls’ victory with a -1.5 handicap.
Prediction for the match: RB Leipzig to win with -1.5 handicap
