Augsburg vs Bayer Leverkusen Predictions

Comfortable win for visitors

Over 2.5 goals looks like the bet when Augsburg host Bayer Leverkusen at the WWK Arena on Saturday. No team has shipped more goals in the Bundesliga this season than the 27 goals Augsburg have conceded.

Bayer Leverkusen are nine places above Augsburg in the table, with the two sides separated by 13 points. Leverkusen, who are fourth with seven wins, two draws and three losses, travel to face Augsburg, who sit 13th with three wins and eight defeats.

Victories are proving hard to come by for Augsburg, who have won just one of their last six Bundesliga matches. Two weeks ago they were 1-0 winners over Hamburg in their last home game, but Bayer Leverkusen have enjoyed four successive wins over Augsburg and have won five of their last seven away games against them in the league.

Bayer Leverkusen have been struggling defensively of late, failing to keep a clean sheet in four of their last six Bundesliga games. They have yet to keep a clean sheet away from home this season, after five road trips.

A 3-0 away win for Bayer Leverkusen is an appealing correct-score bet. Their last four Bundesliga matches have finished with over 2.5 goals, and they have defeated Augsburg by two or more goals in their last two head-to-heads.
