THE PREDICTION
An early Marco Reus goal proved enough to sink Bayer Leverkusen last Saturday, piling the pressure onto Gerardo Seoane and his squad ahead of Augsburg’s visit to the BayArena. The away side were thrashed by Freiburg on their own home turf which leaves them sat inside the Bundesliga bottom two ahead of this latest round of fixtures and momentum within their camp will be extremely low, not to mention morale. It doesn’t get any easier for them here, although Augsburg will surely show an improvement from a defensive perspective at least. In terms of the outcome itself though, expect Leverkusen to gain their first league win of the season.
