Essende hits the bar!
Almost from the striker. Essende receives the ball on the left and cuts inside. His curling shot just grazes the bar. It's as close as Augsburg have come today.
86'
Gregoritsch is on
Here comes the veteran forward. Can he score on his Bundesliga return? His last goal in Germany came away at Mainz back in March last year, while he was still playing for Freiburg.

Dahmen denies Tabaković a hat-trick!
The forward is clean through on goal, but Dahmen does very well to deny him with an outstretched hand. Tabaković then departs the pitch, to be replaced by Machino.

Gladbach still dangerous on the counter
Every time Polanski's side venture forward, they look threatening. This could get even worse for the visitors, who have just brought on Jakić to try and sure things up a bit.

Tabaković has another!
Honorat floats in a beautiful cross for Tebaković, but the 31-year-old still has an awful lot of work to do from the position he is in. Nevertheless, he expertly loops his header into the far corner of the net, and in doing so, kills any remaining Augsburg hope of mounting a comeback. A terrific team goal.
Goal probability
Goal probability
Goal probability determines the likelihood that the ball will land in the goal from every position on the pitch. The value is based on large amounts of data from previous years; factors such as shot angle, distance to goal and opponent pressure - as well as mathematical models.
Distance to Goal
Distance to Goal
The distance to goal is measured at the time of the shot - from the position of the ball to the center of the goal.
56'
Free header for Zesiger!
The defender isn't picked up on a corner, but his glanced header is wayward and trickles wide. Augsburg have certainly had their chances this afternoon...
54'
Massengo goes into the book
The midfielder prevents Reinz from launching a counter-attack and is booked for the professional foul.
51'
Great reaction stop from Nicolas!
Essende has an immediate impact, getting on the end of a fine cross and forcing a reaction save from Nicolas. However, the referee penalises the DR Congo international for using his hand. Promising moments for the visitors.
48'
Fellhauer tests Nicolas from range
Augsburg have gotten off to a strong start this half. A promising move sees the ball land at the feet of Fellhauer from 25 yards, but his rasping shot is well held by the Gladbach keeper.
46'
Substitution for Augsburg
They have it all to do this half, and Baum has brought on striker Essende to try and turn the tide. We're back underway at Borussia Park.
Kick-off!

Gladbach have made their chances count so far
xGoals
The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals > xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals > goals).

Penalty shout for Augsburg!
Kömur goes down under the challenge of Diks, but the ref waves it away. Claude-Maurice's effort from 25 yards or so sails just over the bar.

Three minutes of added-time...
Will we see another goal before half-time? It's been an almost perfect half for Gladbach.
41'
Gladbach push for a fourth
Reitz is growing into the game, causing some problems in the Augsburg backline with a searching cross. The Bavarians have settled back into a defensive shape, perhaps not wanting to concede another before the break.
39'
Gladbach rank third in the Bundesliga for corners scored
They have scored again after a corner and are now the third most dangerous team at corners (54% better than the league average).

Big chance for Augsburg!
Kade plays in Claude-Maurice at the edge of the Gladbach box, but the winger drags the ball just wide of Dahmen's right post. The away side have looked much better in the last few minutes.

Augsburg push forward
Manuel Baum's side are now getting higher up the pitch. Pedersen, making his first Bundesliga start of the season, looks the livliest for the visitors so far down the left channel. He wins a free-kick, which Kade can't quite turn goal-wards.
Early lead for Gladbach!

Gladbach target rare home win

More on those teams
Gladbach's top assist provider, Honorat, who missed the last few games of 2025 due to injury, is fit again and returns to the starting lineup in place of Reyna. This is the only change for Die Fohlen from their last match before the winter break. Augsburg, meanwhile, are without the suspended Giannoulis and turn to Pedersen as his replacement, who is making his first league start of the season.
