Full-time: Augsburg 0-2 Leverkusen

The second half ends the same as the first as Leverkusen hold on for an uneventful but necessary victory. With Bayern losing away at Mainz, this could be a huge three points in the Bundesliga title race.

Hrádecký finally troubled

The Leverkusen captain has to make a proper save, this time on a long-range Alexis Claude-Maurice strike. From the corner Jakić gets another header away, but it's past the far post.

Dropping deeper since the introduction of Schick, Wirtz almost picks the striker out with a lovely ball into the box.

Leverkusen suffocating the hosts

Leverkusen are taking the oxygen out of the match now, seemingly happy to hold onto the ball and their 2-0 lead.

Frustration for Alonso

The Spaniard doesn't look happy with what he's watching as Andrich and then Grimaldo hold onto the ball for too long. Could some changes be on the way?

Double change from Thorup

Augsburg switch things up with Alexis Claude-Maurice and Koudossou coming on for a different style in the final third.

Wirtz the main man

Wirtz is making things tick outside the box, and inside it. Having tried to create a chance in the final third, he goes alone and draws a nice save from Labrović.

52'

Innacurate

Leverkusen aren't looking as fluent in the second half. A cross from Frimpong goes out of play and then Wirtz fails to deliver a final ball after a nice link-up with Grimaldo.

Too easy again

Augsburg get another header on target from a ball into the box, but once again it's straight into Hrádecký's arms from Tietz.

Half-time: Augsburg 0-2 Leverkusen

Leverkusen have been both dominant yet efficient with their few chances, but Augsburg may feel a little hard done by as they've been dangerous with balls into the box. The next goal will be crucial.

Another offside chance

Augsburg again cause trouble from a set piece, and Tietz should score all alone in the six-yard box, however, he'd have been offside anyway.

Two shots two goals!

Wirtz is found in space by Tella, carries the ball into the box, fakes a shot, then makes no mistake to pick out a corner. Trademark from the no.10.

Augsburg chance

With men in the box, an Augsburg chance goes to waste as Leverkusen crowd out a potential tap in. The ball comes out to Maier, but it's straight at Hrádecký.

All down the left

Despite the goal coming from Frimpong, Leverkusen are having plenty of luck on the other side of the pitch with Grimaldo and Wirtz. Another corner goes to waste, but it's another warning for the hosts.

Delightful opener!

Leverkusen make it look easy, but it's all thanks to Xhaka. He pings a ball over Augsburg's midfield to a sprinting Frimpong, and the right-back then pulls it back perfectly for Terrier to sweep home.

Wirtz takes two consecutive corners to the near post, but Augsburg manage to get both away.

コーナー

Grimaldo at work

This time it's the flying left-back's turn to attack, and he pings in a cross that's well cleared by Schlotterbeck for another corner.

Pressure on

Leverkusen's corner comes to nothing, but they haven't given up the ball since.

First corner

Jeremie Frimpong flies out the blocks and causes some pressure down the Augsburg right for a the first corner of the match.

Aigsburg get us kicked off at the WWK Arena.

キックオフ

Boost up front for Augsburg

The hosts will be happy to see Samuel Essende's name in the line-up given that he missed training this week through illness. The summer signing has six goals in all competitions this term, making him Augsburg's joint-top scorer along with Tietz.

Alonso's tweaks

After huge success midweek in downing an unbeaten Inter with a back four, Alonso switches to his trusted 3-4-3. With a three man defence this season Leverkusen's record reads 11 wins, six draws and one defeat. With a back four it's three wins and a draw.

More on those teams

Alonso makes two switches from the 1-0 win over Inter, calling on Andrich and Terrier while Palacios and Mukiele move to the bench. Augsburg similarly make a pair of changes from the 2-2 draw against Frankfurt, bringing in Maier and Giannoulis for Koudossou and Rexhbecaj.

Bayer's Italian job

Ahead of Matchday 6, Inter were in dominant form in the upper reaches of the Champions League standings, unbeaten in five (four wins and a draw) with as many clean sheets, but Leverkusen managed to break them down - and leapfrog them into fourth place - as Nordi Mukiele hit a dramatic injury-time winner on Tuesday night (1-0).

Third time a charm?

Phillip Tietz has scored once in each of his last two Bundesliga appearances, but in his two previous appearances against Leverkusen, he went the full 154 minutes without getting a shot on target.

Road warriors

Last week Bayer 04 Leverkusen celebrated three wins in a row for the first time this Bundesliga season. Die Werkself have not lost in their last 23 Bundesliga away games; only Bayern have managed longer winning streaks on the road (twice).

Home comforts

FC Augsburg have earned 14 of their 16 points at the WWK Arena this season and are currently unbeaten in their last four home games (three wins, one draw).

Bayer: Who will lead the line?

With Victor Boniface still out due to a hamstring complaint, Alonso is hoping to field Patrik Schick, but the Czech striker's fitness (calf) is still in question: "It's possible but we don't want to take any big risks and we'll see if he feels ready." Options to fill the void include Anglo-Nigerian forward Nathan Tella or Germany's Florian Wirtz as a false nine.

Xabi Alonso on facing Augsburg

"In my experience, playing in Augsburg has always been difficult over the last two years. In addition, they have recently changed their system and their strikers are in good form. We expect to face a strong opponent."

Jess Thorup on facing Bayer Leverkusen

"We have to really watch out for Florian Wirtz, of course. Our defence has to be working together and closing down the space."

Essende a doubt

Augsburg's no. 9 was absent from training on both Tuesday and Wednesday due to illness. This could potentially be a big loss for Augsburg as the Congolese international has been in good form recently, having scored two goals in the last week; one in the cup victory against Karlsruhe and the other in the 2-2 draw with Frankfurt.
