Stadium: WWK Arena (Augsburg)
014.02.2025 22:30
The Bundesliga weekend kicks off with a compelling fixture as FC Augsburg hosts RB Leipzig under the floodlights on 14th February 2025 at 22:30 (GMT+3). Augsburg will be looking to cause an upset against a Leipzig side eager to stay in the title race. Both teams come into this encounter with contrasting fortunes; Augsburg has struggled for consistency, while Leipzig has been dominant in the final third.
Augsburg will be hoping to leverage home advantage to disrupt Leipzig’s fluid attacking play. Historically, this fixture has produced entertaining encounters, with both teams capable of scoring. Augsburg’s defensive frailties have cost them points this season, and their ability to contain Leipzig’s attacking force will be put to the test. On the other hand, Leipzig, brimming with attacking options, will look to exploit any gaps in Augsburg’s defence and assert their dominance early on.
With Augsburg’s physical style clashing with Leipzig’s high-tempo, possession-based football, this promises to be an intriguing battle of tactics. Will Leipzig’s superior squad quality be enough to overcome Augsburg’s fighting spirit, or can the home side defy the odds? The answer lies in how both teams handle pressure and execute their game plans under the Friday night lights.

Augsburg’s home form has been a mixed bag, with a home win probability of 35%. Their games tend to be relatively open, with a 57% chance of over 2.5 goals. However, a key weakness has been their ability to keep clean sheets, as their BTTS (both teams to score) probability sits at 52%. Despite this, their defensive setup can be compact when needed, especially against stronger opposition. With limited creativity in midfield, Augsburg will rely on counterattacks and set-pieces to trouble Leipzig.
RB Leipzig
Leipzig enters this match as the stronger side, with their away win probability standing at 50%. They have been prolific in attack, frequently breaching opposition defences. Their over 2.5 goals probability is similar to Augsburg’s at 57%, but their defensive discipline is slightly better, making them a more balanced side. The presence of technically gifted midfielders and pacey forwards will allow Leipzig to control possession and dictate play.

Expert Betting Tips
Considering the attacking prowess and potential of Leipzig’s and Augsburg’s defensive vulnerabilities, this game could see Leipzig dominating possession but struggling to break down a deep-lying defence. However, Augsburg’s counterattacking potential and Leipzig’s tendency to concede unexpected goals suggest a tight contest. The most probable outcome is a high-scoring draw, with a 2-2 scoreline. The probability of over 9.5 corners is 89%, while over 4 cards is uncertain. Expect a tense battle with few clear chances.
