THE PREDICTION
New RB Leipzig head coach Domenico Tedesco got off to the ideal start at the weekend, leading his side to a comfortable 4-1 victory at home to Borussia Monchengladbach and they’ll be looking to back this up with another positive result against Augsburg at WWK Arena. Whilst the hosts currently sit inside the bottom three heading into this latest round of fixtures, they came out on top away at Koln at the weekend. However, RB Leipzig represent a far stronger opposition, with a superior squad across the pitch. With confidence high among the visiting camp, backing them to pick up another three points here is well worth considering.
