Prediction

  • A Bavarian derby under the Friday evening floodlights as FCB host FCA, David vs Goliath and all that.
  • Augsburg often tend to struggle towards the bottom reaches of the table, but have never actually been relegated from the Bundesliga.
  • FCA have secured 11 of their 12 league points at home, but have struggled horribly on their travels.
  • Leaders Bayern can clinch this one with goals at both ends in a feisty derby battle.
