My tip for Leipzig vs Augsburg
I think Augsburg is capable of surprises. It makes an excellent season and I can see it on Friday at least once.
Leipzig does not even have the strongest defense. He passes an average goal on the match, even at home.
Augsburg marks constantly. He has an average over one goal per game and away.
The hosts do not cross the best form and in the last eight stages they have only won twice. In seven of them they cashed.
Augsburg scored eight of the previous nine championship matches. I do not see why she would not do it now.
Also interesting is the statistics of direct meetings. Augsburg scored all five.
PREDICTION: Leipzig win @ 1.75
