Expert Betting Tips
In the ten marginal games against Augsburg, Bayern have only twice beaten the geographical neighbor by a margin of three goals or more. Nevertheless, judging by the game line, bookmakers have little doubt that the Reds will defeat their opponent on Sunday. The logic of the bookies is clear: after the failure in the match for the German Super Cup, Munich will try to apologize to their fans, but Augsburg is not as simple as it seems. We believe that Augsburg is underestimated. Bayern will surely win the derby, but we doubt that crushingly.
