Augsburg – Borussia Dortmund: forecast for the Bundesliga match
Since 2020, Augsburg have not beaten Borussia and have suffered five defeats in the past time. The hosts are frankly weak this season, but they are traditionally dangerous in home matches. How will the face-to-face match between the rivals go on October 26 and which reliable bets to choose? - the answer is in our forecast

Command Analysis

Augsburg

Current form
Augsburg have only seven points in seven rounds played, placing them in 15th place. They are three points ahead of the play-off zone, but overall, the team has not demonstrated a more or less stable game. The only thing that saves them is their ability to play on their home field, which has been the case for more than one season. Jess Thorup men have earned all seven points at home, while their away performance is dismal - not a single point and 11 goals conceded with one goal scored. In the last round, Augsburg played away against Freiburg and suffered a 1:3 defeat, with all three goals conceded in the first half and only three shots on target during the entire match.
Disqualifications and injuries
Gammi, Klein, Oxford, Jensen and Vargas will not play today due to injuries. Schlotterbeck and Pedersen are in doubt.
Interesting trends for betting
- Augsburg have not lost due to offsides in four of their last five matches
- Augsburg have failed to win in 10 of their last 12 Bundesliga matches
Tentative line-up : Labrovic - Gaueleu, Bauer, Matsima - Wolf, Onyeka, Reksbechai, Yakic, Giannoulis - Tietz, Essende.

Borussia Dortmund

Current form
The Borussia players are clearly not in the best mood when they go out for the game today. During the week, Dortmund played a Champions League match against Real Madrid, were leading by two goals, it seemed that there would be revenge for the defeat in the last Champions League final, but instead there was a complete collapse in the second half with five goals conceded (2:5). In the Bundesliga, Nuri Sahin charges have earned 13 points in seven rounds, with which they occupy seventh place. The main problem is away matches. Borussia earned only one point away from home and in this indicator is ahead of only Bochum and Augsburg. In the last round, Dortmund were stronger than St. Pauli on their home field (2:1).
Disqualifications and injuries
Couto, Reina, Adeyemi and Duranville are all injured and will not play today.
Interesting trends for betting
- At least three goals have been scored in Borussia five previous Bundesliga matches
- In three of the last four matches, Borussia won in the first half
Estimated line-up : Kobel – Ryerson, Anton, Schlotterbeck, Bancebaini – Nmecha, Gross – Malen, Brandt, Gittens – Guirassy.

Borussia have not lost in shots on target in six of their previous seven matches
1.52Bet Exact score 1:3
Augsburg have suffered two of their last three defeats by conceding three goals
12.50Tip and bets
Augsburg have earned all their points at home this season and it is not worth underestimating the team on their home field. However, today they will have to play not only against a significantly superior opponent, but also against an inconvenient one, regardless of where the face-to-face matches are held. Borussia have not lost to Augsburg in seven previous personal meetings, winning five times during this time. After an offensive defeat to Real Madrid in the Champions League, the visitors will be extremely motivated to recoup in the home championship, where things are not going very well. We believe that the bookmakers' favorite will earn three points.
Our prediction is a Borussia win with odds of 1.90
Bet on total
Augsburg defense is not particularly reliable, they have already conceded 18 goals in seven matches. Borussia scored at least three goals in three of the four previous head-to-head encounters, which we do not rule out today.
The second bet is Borussia individual total goals over 1.5 with odds of 1.62
Yellow Card Betting
Let pay attention to the fact that in the last six matches Borussia has not lost on yellow cards and in general is currently demonstrating a fairly rough game. Based on statistics and bookmakers' odds, we recommend another option for betting.
Prediction: Borussia will not lose on yellow cards with odds of 1.72
