The RB Leipzig team will challenge the FC Augsburg team in a Matchday 4 German Bundesliga in Red Bull Arena Stadium, Leipzig on Saturday, September 16, 2023. For streaming coverage of RB Leipzig vs FC Augsburg, preview and how to watch it, see in this article.
RB Leipzig will try to maintain their good performance at home when they host Augsburg in the fourth week of the German Bundesliga on Saturday, this weekend.
The hosts have won their last five home games in the league, scoring 15 goals and conceding six since losing 3-1 to Mainz on April 1. Meanwhile, Augsburg is still looking for their first win of the season, after losing once and drawing twice in their opening three matches. Can Augsburg end their streak of negative results against Leipzig, or will the hosts continue their dominance over their opponents?
Leipzig appeared impressive before the international break by winning two consecutive wins in the Bundesliga. Marco Rose’s team beat Union Berlin 3-0 easily in their last match, thanks to goals from Emil Forsberg, Christopher Nkunku and Yussuf Poulsen.
Earlier, they also crushed Stuttgart 5-1 at home, with Nkunku scoring a hat-trick and Andre Silva and Dominik Szoboszlai adding a goal each. Leipzig is now in third place in the standings with six points from three matches, only two points behind leaders Bayern Munich.
On the other hand, Augsburg got an injection of motivation during the international break with a narrow 2-1 win over SpVgg Greuther Fürth in a friendly match. Goals from Florian Niederlechner and Alfred Finnbogason helped Enrico Maassen’s side claim their first win since July.
However, Augsburg still cannot taste victory in the Bundesliga this season, after only winning two points from three matches. They drew 0-0 with Eintracht Frankfurt in the opening match, then lost 4-0 to Hoffenheim in the second match.
In their last match before the international break, they drew 2-2 with Bayer Leverkusen at home, after taking a two-goal lead through Niederlechner and Ruben Vargas. Augsburg is now in 15th position in the standings with two points from three matches, only one point ahead of the relegation zone.
Leipzig has a superior record in the history of meetings between the two teams. They have won 10 of the last 18 meetings between the two teams, whereas Augsburg have managed just three wins in that period, while there have been five draws.
All the information above makes Leipzig a strong favorite to win this match, considering their good performance at home and their dominance over Augsburg.
