Bayern Munich have made a dominant start to the new Bundesliga season, and they could stretch their advantage at the summit to eight points on Friday.
Vincent Kompany’s side have avoided defeat in their opening ten matches, and have racked up four wins in succession. Bayern have already scored a Bundesliga-high of 33 goals this term.
Augsburg will be the visitors to the Allianz Arena on Friday as they bid to extend their unbeaten run to four matches. However, they come into this round after playing out draws in each of their last two outings.

Bayern Munich will be the shortest-price selection of any team in Europe this weekend at -875. A win for Augsburg is a massive price on the moneyline at +1650.

Bayern Munich will be incredibly difficult to bet against this weekend, as they have won 12 of their 14 competitive home matches against their opponents. Their only defeat was suffered in May 2015.
Since then, Bayern have won nine of the ten meetings between the sides in Munich. Augsburg also have a poor record against teams at the top of the standings, winning just two of their last 19.
🚨⚽ TIP: Over 3.75 Goals @ -123
