RB Leipzig's Mixed Feelings and Challenges in Bundesliga Match at Augsburg

RB Leipzig approaches their Bundesliga match against FC Augsburg with mixed feelings. Despite a strong record of nine wins and six draws in the last 15 encounters with Augsburg, their last victory at the Fuggerstadten dates back five years. Midfielder Xaver Schlager expressed that games in Augsburg have historically never been enjoyable. Head coach Ole Werner emphasizes the need for RB Leipzig to develop more dominance, especially when leading, to secure better results. He aims for progress after a narrow victory against Hamburg, focusing on winning more convincingly and improving team performance. Meanwhile, the upcoming match will be officiated by referee Daniel Siebert, whose record with RB Leipzig is less favorable, with only 10 wins out of 31 matches involving the team. The last three games under Siebert's refereeing resulted in losses for RB Leipzig, including a recent heavy defeat against Bayern Munich. Experts suggest that Siebert could have better managed player protests, such as those by David Raum, during previous matches. Overall, the team is eager to improve and advance in the Bundesliga while dealing with the challenges posed by refereeing and competitive pressure.
