Prediction: 1-0
Augsburg
After dropping two points in a 1-1 draw with St. Pauli, Bayer Leverkusen will look to revive their title hopes when they host Augsburg to BayArena. Leverkusen have been struggling to find their best form of late, but they are still seen as hot favourites to win Saturday’s encounter. Patrik Schick is expected to keep his place in the starting XI after scoring the opener against St. Pauli, while both Martin Terrier and Jeanuel Belocian remain in the treatment room.
The Bavarians, on the other hand, are stuck in the middle of the table with 43 points on their account. Augsburg did well to hold Eintracht Frankfurt to a goalless draw at the weekend, but preventing Bayer Leverkusen forwards from finding the net at BayArena is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, we predict that one goal is going to separate the two teams in Saturday’s clash. Midfielder Arne Maier is banned for the visiting team.
Highlighted Player (Alex Grimaldo):
Alex Grimaldo is a Spanish footballer who plays for Portuguese side Benfica as a left back. Born in Valencia on September 20, 1995, Grimaldo started his youth career at his hometown club FC Valencia, but in 2008 Barcelona scouts brought him to Camp Nou.
The 171-cm-tall footballer scored six goals in 92 appearances for Barca B before joining Primeira Liga club Benfica in the winter of 2015. Alex Grimaldo made his debut with the Eagles on January 26, 2016 in a 6-1 win at Moreirense in the Taca da Liga. Speaking of his Primeira Liga debut, Grimaldo played his first league game for Benfica on February 29, 2016 in a 2-0 win over Uniao Leiria.
The Benfica defender has two caps for Spain U21 team, but he has yet to make his debut with the senior team. His main position is left-back, but he is capable of producing fine performances as a left winger as well.
Highlighted Team (Augsburg):
Augsburg are a German football club founded in Augsburg, Bavaria back in 1907. Die Fuggerstadter play in German Bundesliga and with 12,200 members they are regarded as the largest football club in Bavaria. Augsburg wear white shirts and they host their rivals at WWK ARENA.
The capacity of the stadium is 30,660 and it has been the home of Augsburg since 2009. Augsburg won the Schwaben Cup 13 times and it has to be noted that they were promoted to the Bundesliga for the first time in 2011.
The club qualified for the Europa League 2015/2016 group stages and thanks to a 3-1 win over Partizan in Belgrade they booked their place in the last 32. However, Liverpool proved to be a big catch for the German outfit in the Europa League knockout stages.
Die Fuggerstadter’s main rivals are TSV 1860 Munich and there have always been fireworks when the two teams take on each other.
