Competition: Bundesliga
📺
Watch Live: Sky Sports Mix
As Bundesliga action resumes following the international break, one thing remains certain: goals are a near guarantee, especially in fixtures involving attacking powerhouses.
Friday night’s clash at the Allianz Arena pits league leaders Bayern Munich against a struggling Augsburg side, and all signs point to another dominant performance from Vincent Kompany’s men.
⭐ Bayern Munich v Augsburg Best Bets
Bayern Munich’s firepower this season has been nothing short of extraordinary. Averaging an eye-watering 3.3 goals per game, the reigning champions have steamrolled most of their opposition, dropping points only to fellow title contenders Leverkusen and Stuttgart. Their five-game winning streak across all competitions underscores their current form, and they’ve coupled their offensive brilliance with a resolute defence—the second-best in the league, conceding just 1.43 goals per match.
At home, Bayern may average a slightly more modest 2.5 goals per game in the Bundesliga, but their defensive solidity has been immaculate, allowing just one goal in their home fixtures this season. Augsburg, meanwhile, arrive at the Allianz with a dismal away record: winless in the league and conceding 3 or more goals in three of their four road trips. With these trends, backing Bayern to cover a -2 handicap looks as close to a certainty as it gets. Expect a commanding performance from the Bavarians as they look to further solidify their hold at the top of the table.
👕 Bayern Munich v Augsburg Predicted XI
🔍 Bayern Munich v Augsburg Players to Watch
🔴 Jamal Musiala
At the heart of Bayern’s attacking dominance lies the mercurial talent of 21-year-old Jamal Musiala. Operating as a creative force and goal-scoring threat, Musiala consistently occupies dangerous spaces in the attacking third, tormenting defences with his technical brilliance and eye for goal.
With 5 goals in 8 league appearances this season, Musiala is Bayern’s second-highest scorer, trailing only Harry Kane. His involvement is not limited to goals alone; he is equally adept at creating and taking chances. Musiala averages 2.4 shots per game across all competitions, with a sharp accuracy rate that sees him hit the target in most outings. Impressively, he has registered at least one shot on target in four of his last five appearances and managed two or more in three of those games.
🟢 Alexis Claude-Maurice
Joining Augsburg on a free transfer, Alexis Claude-Maurice has proven to be an inspired acquisition. Since making his competitive debut in October, he has emerged as a pivotal attacking threat, excelling both in front of goal and in creating chances. With five goal contributions in his last six games—four of which he scored himself—Claude-Maurice has thrived in his hybrid role as an attacking midfielder/forward, operating fluidly across the attacking third.
His efficiency in front of goal has been remarkable, converting three goals from an xG of just 0.52, showcasing his clinical edge. In his last four matches, he has registered nine shots, hitting the target four times. While Bayern Munich are unlikely to allow Augsburg many opportunities, the young Frenchman is poised to be at the heart of whatever attacking threat they can muster.

💻 Bayern Munich v Augsburg Form and Tactics
Under new manager Vincent Kompany, Bayern Munich have continued their tradition of dominance. Much like Pep Guardiola, Kompany has adopted a possession-based philosophy, with Bayern averaging 72% possession so far this season across all competitions. Opting for a fluid playing style and high-tempo football, their offensive output has been extraordinary, scoring freely across all competitions (scoring 52 goals in 16 games). Their most eye-catching result came in the Champions League, where they demolished Dinamo Zagreb 9-2 and have since scored three or more goals in six separate matches, underscoring their consistency in front of goal.
Remaining the only unbeaten team in the league and riding the momentum of a five-game winning streak across all competitions without conceding a single goal, Bayern Munich remain a relentless force, blending defensive sophistication with sheer attacking firepower.
Under Danish manager Jess Thorup, Augsburg have embraced an attacking philosophy, emphasising width and delivering frequent crosses into the opposition box. This approach has yielded progress, with Augsburg losing just one of their last five Bundesliga matches (W2, D2), a significant turnaround from their first five games (W1, D1, L3), during which they conceded 14 of their current 22 goals. However, their persistent struggles on the road remain a glaring issue, threatening to drag them closer to the relegation play-off zone.
Their recent 1-1 draw at Wolfsburg, their first away point of the season, broke a streak of three consecutive road defeats but extended their winless run on the road in the Bundesliga to eight matches. Notably, six of these seven losses came by a multiple-goal margin, underlining their vulnerability away from home.
