RB Leipzig, Recent FormIn their previous league fixture, RB Leipzig managed a remarkable 3-0 away win against Union Berlin. Their share of possession in that meeting was 65%, while racking up 14 shots along the way, 7 of which were on target, in contrast to Union Berlin, who had 3 shots on goal with 1 on target.
Their boss Marco Rose has every reason to be happy with his side's attacking prowess of late, which has seen them net 19 goals in their last 6 matches; however, they may have some work to do in defence with 8 goals conceded across those matches. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 1 clean sheet in those games.
They've had a good run of form at home recently, with 5 straight wins in a row.
Augsburg, Recent FormWith a 2-2 draw in their last match against Bochum, Augsburg had to settle for a share of the points. They came away from that fixture with a 37% share of the possession and clocked up 11 attempts on goal with 4 on target, in comparison to Bochum, who managed 21 attempts on goal, 8 of which were on target.
They have found the net 9 times in their last 6 matches, but it hasn't earned them much points-wise due to a leaky defence that's shipped 17 goals in that same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but they've conceded a goal in their 15 most recent trips.
An away win for Augsburg is just a distant memory, having not won on the road in 14 games.
On an individual basis, Arne Maier will be looking to cause RB Leipzig some problems having scored 2 goals in Augsburg's last 6 away games in the league.
The last meeting between these 2 teams in the league resulted in an unsurprising 3-2 win for RB Leipzig.
RB Leipzig will be looking to extend their current run of scoring against Fuggerstädter having scored at least 1 goal in each of their previous 8 meetings. In their last 3 away league games against Die Roten Bullen, Augsburg have conceded a total of 9 goals and that's an average of 3 per game.
Augsburg will be hoping to get at least a point from this game having lost the last 4 times they've visited RB Leipzig in the league and not won this away fixture at The Red Bull Arena for 7 games in a row.
RB Leipzig player Timo Werner will be looking to get on the scoresheet again against Augsburg, having scored 4 goals in the last 5 league meetings between the teams.
RB Leipzig manager Marco Rose has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. El Bitshiabu (Knee), Caden Clark (Knock), Péter Gulácsi (Knee) and Amadou Haidara (Calf) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Enrico Maaßen has a number of injury concerns in his Augsburg squad to contend with: Raphael Framberger (Cruciate ligament), Jeffrey Gouweleeuw (Toe), Nathanaël Mbuku (Fever), Sven Michel (Groin), Masaya Okugawa (Knee) and Reece Oxford (COVID-19)
