FC Augsburg vs RB Leipzig: Who will stop the Bulls' rise?

Today, October 25, 2025, a highly anticipated duel between FC Augsburg and RB Leipzig took place at the WWK Arena in Augsburg. Kick-off was at 3:11 p.m., led by referee Daniel Siebert.

Leipzig went into this game as the clear favorite. The second-place team had an impressive record of four wins and just one draw against Dortmund in their last five games. Augsburg, on the other hand, was able to regain some self-confidence with a 3-1 win against Wolfsburg and a 1-1 draw in Cologne, which noticeably reduced the pressure on coach Sandro Wagner.

History and team lineups

Historically, Augsburg has only won once in 18 Bundesliga duels against Leipzig, 1-0 in September 2017. Sandro Wagner's team went into the game all the more courageous today, with Claude-Maurice starting on the offensive for Augsburg and Diomande on the right wing for Leipzig.

The game started lively, with possession of the ball changing several times in the first minute. But the first real chance was a long time coming: Massengo was able to score the first goal for Augsburg in the 6th minute, but his shot was blocked. The teams initially struggled to find their rhythm and the passes were often inaccurate.

Game history and highlights

In the 11th minute it was even more energetic: Diomande completed a one-two with Romulo and gave Leipzig a 1-0 lead. Shortly afterwards, Claude-Maurice almost responded, but his shot was also blocked. Leipzig continued to dominate the game, which was confirmed in the 26th minute when Nusa made it 2-0 - again after an assist from Diomande.

The guests' superior style of play was also reflected in the further development of the game. Although Augsburg had space, they could no longer offer anything worth counting. A remarkable scene occurred in the 34th minute when Ouedraogo missed the chance to score another goal for Leipzig.
