Bayern Munich are within touching distance of reclaiming the Bundesliga title. The Bavarians need 16 points from their remaining seven matches.
The league leaders will have to overcome a hard-to-beat Augsburg team on Friday. The Matchday 28 fixture is at Augsburg’s WWK Arena, where the hosts have only lost three times in the league this season.

Augsburg vs Bayern Munich predictions
Augsburg sit eighth in the Bundesliga table with 39 points from 27 matches. They have won ten, drawn nine and lost eight.
Jess Thorup’s team are just three points outside of the European places and six points outside of the top four.
Their Achilles heel is goalscoring. Augsburg has found the back of the net just 30 times this season. Only three teams have scored fewer goals in the German top flight.
Augsburg are on an 11-match unbeaten run in the Bundesliga. A 1-0 loss to Stuttgart in the DFB-Pokal quarter-final is the only match they have lost in their last 12 in all competitions.
In their last outing, Thorup’s team were held to a disappointing 1-1 draw away at struggling Hoffenheim on Saturday.
Halftime substitute Samuel Essende gave Augsburg the lead just 15 seconds after arriving onto the pitch. It was the fastest goal scored by a substitute in Germany since records began.
Thorup’s team were pegged back when the hosts equalised through an Andrej Kramaric penalty after 71 minutes and had to settle for a point.
Bayern sit top of the table with 65 points from 27 matches. The league leaders have won 20, drawn five and lost two.
The Bavarians have a six-point lead over champions Bayer Leverkusen at the top of the Bundesliga. That lead has been cut in recent weeks.
And with Bayern facing Inter in the Champions League next Tuesday, they can’t afford to take their eye off the ball against Augsburg and give Xabi Alonso’s team any sniff of retaining the title.
Vincent Kompany’s team warmed up for Augsburg with a 3-2 win over relegation-threatened St. Pauli last Saturday.
Goals from Harry Kane and Leroy Sane (2) were enough to give Bayern the three points at the Allianz Arena. But Bayern were given a scare as the visitors pulled the deficit back to just one in the dying minutes.
The two goals scored by St. Pauli means Bayern have now conceded in their last four Bundesliga matches. That must be becoming a concern for head coach Vincent Kompany.
On a positive note, Harry Kane’s first half strike ended a run of five Bundesliga matches without a goal for the England captain.

Augsburg vs Bayern Munich betting tips
A win for Bayern will see them move to within 13 points of the Bundesliga title. It will also heap the pressure back onto Leverkusen who are not playing until Saturday. Find out if Bayern can do it in our Augsburg vs Bayern betting tips:
Bayern to win and over 1.5 goals
Augsburg are likely to make life difficult for Bayern. They might not offer much from an attacking perspective, but they are hard to beat.

Yes, they still have a six-point gap to play with. But Vincent Kompany won’t want to give any hope to Leverkusen, so we say he will go all out to win this match and worry about his team selection for the Champions League match with Inter afterwards.
Bayern are maybe too short to back in the match winner market at 40/85. So we are instead backing them to win with over 1.5 goals in the match.
This wager is 8/11 and covers a 2-0 or greater winning score for Bayern.
Back Bayern to win and over 1.5 goals in the match at 8/11 with SBK
No in both teams to score
Augsburg struggles to score. They have only scored 15 goals in 13 home league matches this season.
Augsburg have also only found the net 13 times in their 11 match unbeaten run. Furthermore, three of the matches in that run finished 0-0.
Bayern have been conceding too many goals for Vincent Kompany’s liking in recent weeks. But if he wants to put an end to that run, a fixture against shot-shy Augsburg looks like the ideal opportunity.
Back no in both teams to score at 10/11 with Spreadex
Harry Kane to score
When Harry Kane scored against St. Pauli last Saturday, not only did he break a five-match league run without a goal, he also scored against his 19th different Bundesliga club.
The significance of the goal is that he has now scored against every Bundesliga club he has played against.
The odds on Kane to score in home games are usually very short. But on the road against a team with a good defensive record he is 17/20.
Furthermore, Kane scored a hat-trick against Augsburg in the reverse fixture and has six goals in his previous three matches against this opposition.
