Borussia Dortmund vs Augsburg Predicted line-up, betting tips, odds, injury news, H2H, telecast

BVB can play in the Champions League next season if they finish in fifth position

Borussia Dortmund have been inconsistent in the league in recent times, with a tight European schedule also there to focus on. Their chances to finish in the top four are all but over, being 5 points behind RB Leipzig with just 3 games to go.

However, this is a must-win game for them if they want to retain any chance for an automatic Champions League spot for next season. However, they can still secure a UCL spot if they finish fifth in the table after German teams have been granted an extra spot in the competition.

Meanwhile, Augsburg have had a pretty impressive season but have fallen off a bit in recent times with just 1 win in their last 5 games. They were comprehensively beaten 3-0 in their last game against Frankfurt.

Kick-Off:

Friday: 4th May 2024, 7 PM IST

Location: Signal Iduna Park, Dortmund, Germany

Form:

Borussia Dortmund (all-competitions): L-D-W-W-L

Augsburg (all-competitions): L-L-W-L-D

Players to watch:

Julian Brandt (Borussia Dortmund)

Julian Brandt has shone for Dortmund this season, being their chief creator with 6 goals and 11 assists in the league this season. The German provides creativity and vision for a Dortmund attack that is misfiring a bit in recent times.

Ermedin Demirovic (Augsburg)

This has been a breakout season for Ermedin Demirovic. The Bosnian has an impressive 15 goals and 9 assists this season and would be massively important for Augsburg to hurt Dortmund.

Match Facts:

The last match between them ended 1-1 in December, where Dortmund had 25 attempts.
Dortmund have won their last five home matches against Augsburg in all competitions.
