Augsburg vs Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich are looking to maintain their fine start to the season when they travel to Augsburg for a German Bundesliga fixture on Saturday.

The hosts have also caught the eye in the early stages of the season, but have a woeful record in this fixture. Harry Kane is looking sharp at the moment, and the striker is expected to help the champions claim the upper hand once again.

Augsburg News

Augsburg are coming off a 3-1 victory at Freiburg in their opening fixture of the season. They were three goals up at the break thanks to Dimitrios Giannoulis, Chrislain Matsima and Marius Wolf, and were able to hold on despite conceding in the second half.

Sandro Wagner’s team are enjoying a solid start to the season, having also claimed a 2-0 victory at Hellescher in the DFB Pokal first round. They are set for their first home game of the season, but are winless in their last four Bundesliga matches at WWK Arena, suffering three defeats on this run.

Augsburg are showing attacking quality in the early stage of the season, scoring five goals across two matches. However, they have failed to keep a clean sheet in three of their last four Bundesliga home matches.

Bayern Munich News

Bayern Munich laid down an early marker for their title defence as they eased to a 6-0 victory over RB Leipzig in their opening Bundesliga fixture. Kane netted a hat-trick while Michael Olise and Luiz Diaz were also on target.

The Bavarians followed up that result with a 3-2 victory at Wehen in the DFB Pokal, with Kane on target once again with a brace. The result highlights a fine away record for Vincent Kompany's team, who have won three of their last four Bundesliga matches on the road.

Five goals in just two matches suggest Kane is already picking up where he left off last season. The striker leads a Bayern Munich attack that scored in both halves in their two fixtures, although they are without a clean sheet in three of their last four matches across all competitions.

Head to Head

Bayern Munich are the dominant force in this fixture and have won the last six matches against Augsburg. The champions did the double last season, winning 3-0 at home before a 3-1 away victory in the reverse fixture.

Verdict

Augsburg v Bayern Munich

Harry Kane has a superb record against Augsburg and having found the net seven times in the last four meetings, could be backed to get on the score sheet once again. Bayern Munich are also expected to score in both halves, having played out a similar pattern in their two matches this season.

Bayern Munich have earned a win with both teams scoring in five of the last six matches against Augsburg. Saturday's clash is likely to produce a similar outcome.
