Augsburg vs Borussia M. Prediction: The rivals have about equal chances of success

In the Saturday pool of the opening round of the German Bundesliga 2023/24 Bavarian Augsburg will meet with Borussia Mönchengladbach. Bookmakers believe that the rivals have about equal chances of success.

The Bavarians have already played one official match, in the German Cup, they lost away to Unterhaching with a score of 0:2. It was a terrible result, and now they have nothing else to do but concentrate on the Bundesliga. Before the start of the season, the Bavarians played eight friendlies, three of which they lost with four victories and one draw. Just before the start of the season, the Bavarians lost to Salernitana 1:2 and Napoli 0:1.

Borussia M. started the season very cheerfully, and in friendlies, they looked great, having never lost in eight matches. In the off-season, Borussia significantly renewed; the team has a new head coach, Gerardo Seoane. Marcus Thuram, Bensebeini, Bayer, Hofmann, Stindl left the club. They bought out the rights to Cvančara, Weigl, Honnorat, and Huck and took Wöber on loan. The first official match they played according to the scheme 1-4-2-3-1.

Augsburg has problems with the tonus at the start of the season, which is not the case with Borussia Dortmund, who last lost on an official level last season and have an 11-match unbeaten streak. We doubt that the Bavarians can get a win in the upcoming game. Moreover, we won't be surprised if the team starts the Bundesliga with three away points. As for the total, we hope the match will not disappoint, and we will see at least three goals scored.
