Augsburg vs Bayern prediction

Bayern Munich have scored the most amount of goals in the ongoing Bundesliga campaign as they have found the back of the net a whopping 48 times. Bayern's star striker Robert Lewandowski is one of the main reasons for Bayern's firepower up front with the Polish international having netted 21 goals to his name already in the ongoing 20/21 campaign. Bayern Munich’s attacking threat up front makes them a strong favourite to win the match as we predict a comprehensive win for them in this game.

Prediction: FC Augsburg 0-3 Bayern Munich
