Bayer to win and Total goals over 1.5

After a slow start to the season, Bayer will be looking for a positive result against Augsburg. They have never lost them in 22 matches, with a run of seven wins in the previous eight meetings. Moreover, Bayer have scored at least 2 goals in 9 of their last 11 home league matches.

Bayer goals handicap (-1.5)

The hosts have scored at least 2 goals in 6 of their last 7 matches against Augsburg in all competitions. We expect they can cover this bet in this matchup.

Preliminary review and match prediction for Bayer Leverkusen vs Augsburg

After starting the new Bundesliga campaign with a 0:1 loss to Borussia Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen will look to pick their first points of the season.

Moreover, the start of the new campaign went wrong for Bayer, as they suffered a shock 3:4 defeat in the DFB Pokal first round against SV Elversberg.

Nevertheless, Bayer Leverkusen will return to the BayArena this Saturday, where they secured 10 of their 17 Bundesliga match last season.

On the other hand, like their opponents, Augsburg also had a poor start of the season, securing 0:4 defeat at home to Freiburg.

Augsburg, as an away team, are not particularly good. They had just three wins in 17 away Bundesliga fixtures last year (D, L10).
