FC Augsburg vs Bayern Munich Preview – prediction, team news, lineups | Bundesliga 2026-27
Fuggerstädter emerged victorious when these sides last met!
FC Augsburg are now going to lock horns with Bayern Munich for their matchweek five of the Bundesliga 2026-27 campaign. These clubs are all set to have an interesting outing, taking place at the WWK Arena.
In their first four league games of the new season, Manuel Baum’s men have secured two wins and are now sitting in fourth place on the points table. Ahead of the international window, FC Augsburg suffered their first loss of the league this season. It was a 2-3 defeat at the hands of Werder Bremen.
They will now be eager to jump back to winning ways and must use their home ground as one of their advantages. Fuggerstädter outplayed Bayern Munich in their previous meeting and will be looking to do so once again.
The Vincent Kompany-led side have initiated their season on a positive note. They are unbeaten in the Bundesliga 2026-27 campaign so far and will be keen to keep it that way. The Bavarians came out on top and secured a 7-0 win against Union Berlin in their last matchup. They will be eager to continue their positive run of form.
Bayern Munich will be away from home, but the way they have performed in their initial games is going to keep them out of pressure.
