Augsburg vs Dortmund Prediction Bundesliga
Augsburg vs Dortmund Prediction and Betting Tips for Matchday 9 of the Bundesliga, scheduled for October 31, 2025, at 19:30 GMT. The match will take place at the WWK Arena and will be broadcast live on BBC Sports. Borussia Dortmund travel to face an Augsburg side desperate to halt their slump and prove they still belong in the top flight. In this article, you’ll discover Bundesliga Predictions and insights from XpertStats analysts.
- Augsburg have averaged 5 total goals per match this season.
- Dortmund have scored in every Bundesliga game so far.
- Both teams have hit Over 1.5 Goals in 100% of their matches.
- The last two head-to-head meetings were won by Augsburg.
It’s been a bruising few weeks for Augsburg. After that shocking 6-0 loss to RB Leipzig and a painful DFB Pokal exit to Bochum, the confidence in Sandro Wagner’s squad is on thin ice. Their defense has leaked an average of 3.5 goals per match, while their games have been goal fests, every single one topping Over 2.5. The home crowd at the WWK Arena will hope for some spark, maybe from youngster Mert Komur, but even so, it’s hard to imagine them keeping a clean sheet right now.
Still, Augsburg have a knack for frustrating the big boys. They did the double over Dortmund last season, and history has a funny way of repeating itself when least expected. But can they pull it off again without their defensive leader, Gouweleeuw? That’s a tall order. Wagner’s side will need to rediscover discipline fast, or risk being steamrolled once more by a Dortmund attack that’s finding rhythm.
Dortmund, for their part, are sitting in the top four but trail Bayern by seven points. Niko Kovac’s men know they can’t afford any slip-ups, especially against a team that’s beaten them twice in a row. Their average of 3.25 total goals per match suggests action, but their defensive record, conceding in half of their games, still leaves questions. Can Guirassy finally end his goal drought? That’s one to watch on Friday night.
What’s intriguing is how both teams are trending in the same chaotic direction, plenty of goals, plenty of drama. Dortmund’s quality should edge it, but Augsburg’s home energy might just make things complicated. Expect intensity, goals, and possibly a few surprises.

Borussia Dortmund head coach Niko Kovac continues to rely heavily on defender Waldemar Anton, who has played every single minute this season across all competitions. The 29-year-old has become Dortmund’s “Ironman,” praised by Kovac for his consistency and endurance amid a packed schedule that includes Bundesliga, Champions League, and DFB-Pokal fixtures. Despite frequent squad rotation, Anton remains indispensable, highlighting both his physical and mental resilience. Source: kicker.de.
Augsburg’s defensive record this season has been shaky at best, conceding an average of 3.5 goals per game, while still managing to find the net in most of their fixtures. In fact, 75% of their games have seen both teams score. Dortmund, on the other hand, have scored in every Bundesliga match but have also conceded in half of them, showing some vulnerability at the back. Historically, both sides have found the net in their last five head-to-head meetings, and Augsburg even managed two wins last season. With both teams averaging over three total goals per match, the attacking intent from both sides seems guaranteed. Dortmund’s Guirassy will be eager to end his goal drought, while Augsburg’s Komur could provide a spark up front. Given the stats and form, “Both Teams to Score” looks like the most logical and statistically supported outcome.
When you combine Augsburg’s 100% Over 2.5 rate with Dortmund’s 50%, you get a pretty convincing picture. Augsburg’s games have averaged 5 total goals per match – a remarkable number that screams attacking chaos and defensive instability. Dortmund average 3.25 per game, and with both teams preferring open football, this should be another high-scoring affair. Augsburg concede 3.5 goals per game but score 1.5, while Dortmund’s attack is too dangerous to keep quiet. Guirassy will be desperate to end his goal drought, and Augsburg tend to push hard at home regardless of the scoreline. Given both teams’ stats, their recent form, and the nature of their matchups (four of the last five featuring at least three goals), Over 2.5 looks like a strong and value-packed option. Expect end-to-end football, goals before halftime, and no shortage of drama in the second half.
