Nobody likes to come through the opening round of a new season with a defeat, but that is exactly what Bayer Leverkusen had to settle for in their first match. Augsburg came away from their opening match of the season on a sour note and no doubt aim to rectify themselves.

Bayer Leverkusen vs Augsburg Prediction
Bayer Leverkusen managed a strong return of four wins from their previous six matches on home soil in the Bundesliga. They drew none though, while losing twice in this series. They scored nine goals and conceded four times.
Bayer Leverkusen are perhaps an outside bet at best for title challenge in the league this term, but a top three finish certainty isn't unreachable.
In the last three matches, Augsburg beat Greuther Fuerth 2-1, won 0-4 against Blau-Weiss Lohne, and lost 0-4 against Freiburg. In their last six away matches in the Bundesliga, Augsburg won twice, while also recording zero draws. They endured four defeats in this run, with a scoreline from these matches saying 11 goals conceded and seven scored.
The target for Augsburg this season has to be staying above the relegation zone in order to stay in the Bundesliga.
Bayer Leverkusen need to show they are capable of rising to the occasion after the recent setbacks, losing their previous two matches. We favour them to get a real boost of out playing in front of their home crowd and to claim a win.
