Full-time: RB Leipzig 2-1 Augsburg

Leipzig snatch all three points right at the death! Augsburg will rue missing out on even a draw, as they missed a penalty through Keven Schlotterbeck before Robin Fellhauer gave them the lead before the break. Leipzig, though, responded well and found an equaliser through Yan Diomande, before Arthur Chaves put into his own net in added-on injury time to gift a win to the hosts.

What a chance for Dahmen, who heads wide from a corner. That was the game's last chance, surely - what a moment that would have been!

Leipzig snatch the lead!

The home side complete the turnaround! It is a fortunate goal, as Raum's cross is pushed by Dahmen into Chaves, who can do nothing as he watches the ball trickle over the line. Leipzig, though, will not care one jot!

All square!

Diomande shines once more as he levels things up for the home team! Harder flicks the ball on for Schlotterbeck, and Diomande beats the defender for pace. He still has work to do as he is closed down by Dahmen, but he keeps his cool to bury.

Reflects the scoreline

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).

Augsburg's xG value is slightly higher than their opponents. The scoreline is therefore no surprise.

Vandevoordt comes to Augsburg's rescue twice in succession, first keeping out Giannoulis before denying Kade. If it weren't for the goalkeeper, Leipzig would be further behind here.

Just over

Sublime backheel from Ribeiro, but it goes narrowly over the bar. That would have been one of the goals of the season.

Save

This stop from Dahmen is more routine, as he gets down well to deny Orbán's header from the resulting corner.

What a stop

Dahmen makes a huge intervention to keep out Baumgartner from close range. So close to the equaliser.

Half-time: RB Leipzig 0-1 Augsburg

Although they missed a spot-kick, Augsburg lead at the break. Maarten Vandevoordt got down well fantastically to deny Keven Schlotterbeck from 12 yards after Christoph Baumgartner had handled in the area, but there was nothing he could do to stop Robin Fellhauer from converting not long before the interval.

Augsburg in front!

Despite missing a penalty, the visitors lead. A quick break allows Rieder to progress down the left wing, and his cutback is played perfectly into Fellhauer's path. Unmarked, he makes no mistake to give the in-form side another lead.

The winger bursts into life, creating some space from a tight angle in the box and forcing a stop from Dahmen, who has to subsequently tip the ball over the bar after his first save.

Leipzig respond

The home team have upped their intensity since that spot-kick. The task now is to get Diomande involved in the game a bit more - he has not had too much of an influence on things so far.

Schlotterbeck steps up to take it, but Vandevoordt tips it around the post. Great stop from the shot-stopper, but a real missed opportunity for Augsburg.

Watch: The art of the set piece

The 2025/26 season has already seen some brilliant set-piece routines, with sides trying to improve their efficiency in a game of fine margins.

Ole Werner on facing Augsburg

"Augsburg are in good form and very clinical - they don't need many chances. We'll need to be just as focused as we were last weekend."

Manuel Baum on facing Leipzig

“Leipzig are variable, with an intense style of play and a lot of individual quality that we will need to keep under control. We showed that we’re capable of playing well against big teams in the games against Bayern and Leverkusen.”

Leipzig have Augsburg's number

The Saxony outfit are unbeaten in their last 16 games against Augsburg (10 wins, six draws). That is their best run against a single opponent in their Bundesliga history.

A tough battle

This game will pit two physically strong sides against each other: they are the only two teams in the division to average more than 200 duels per game this season.

Baum's influence

In the first 12 games of the season, Augsburg amassed 10 points under Sandro Wagner. Since Baum's return to the head coaching role, they have picked up 21 in 12 outings. They have also conceded considerably fewer goals (27 to 14), while they have shipped a league-low five goals from open play since the appointment.

Augsburg on fire

The visitors have lost just one of their past eight Bundesliga games, and have won five of the past six. Their record since, and including, Matchday 19 is the best in the division.

Going against the trend

Leipzig have earned a reputation for giving up leads this term, failing to win seven different games in which they had gone in front. However, they came from behind to prevail for the first time in the Bundesliga this season against Hamburg.

Watch: Augsburg 0-6 RB Leipzig - previous meeting

Leipzig romped to victory the last time these two met, on Matchday 8 of this campaign. That result left Ole Werner's side as Bayern Munich's closest challengers at the top of the table, but they weren't able to maintain that pace. While Augsburg were just outside the bottom three after that humbling, they are a far more dangerous proposition currently.

Watch: Hamburg 1-2 RB Leipzig - highlights

Last time out, Leipzig came from behind to end Hamburg's unbeaten six-game run, with Yan Diomande on the scoresheet.

Augsburg moved into the Bundesliga's top half courtesy of a victory over Cologne on Matchday 24.
