Augsburg's unbeaten series: surprise against Leipzig?

On the 22nd matchday of the Bundesliga, FC Augsburg and RB Leipzig separated with a disappointing 0-0 draw. In this pure scanning, the necessary offensive force was missing - a result that is particularly painful for Leipzig, which plays under coach Marco Rose. Only one victory from the last six games shows the difficulties in front of them. On the other hand, Augsburg has been undefeated for six games and has the best season with 27 points after 21 games in seven years.

The game took place in the WWK arena in Augsburg, where the hosts tried to play their superior defensive. Her goalkeeper Finn Dahmen remained insurmountable over the entire season, while Leipzig's offensive always stalled. Another shortcoming for the Leipzig was the lack of her captain Willi Orban, who could not appear due to a red lock. The defensive of the Leipziger has already conceded worrying 29 goals this season, so that the absence of such an important player had serious consequences. Augsburg, on the other hand, has achieved a draw in the past three Bundesliga home games, which strengthens her defensive under coach Jess Thorup even more.

a game full of characteristics

With this encounter it was clear that both teams had their challenges. Augsburg managed to earn the fewest major chances of the league, while Leipzig allowed the third -party opposing opportunities. In the past away games, Leipzig had difficulty getting out with a goal and knew that this weakness could not be ironed out against the strong defensive of the Augsburgers. However, Nicolas Seiwald, which was substituted in the 70th minute, was a bright spot. For Leipzig, the question now remains how to find out of this crisis while Augsburg wants to continue its course.
