RB Leipzig will host FC Augsburg on 7 November 2026 at 21:30 in the Red Bull Arena Leipzig, bringing a top-half Bundesliga meeting to Leipzig with the hosts still six points clear of their visitors. The gap is built on a stronger season so far: RB Leipzig sit fourth with 15 points, while FC Augsburg are 11th on 9.
That is why the fixture is drawing attention now. RB Leipzig have won three of their last five matches and lost two, while FC Augsburg arrive with one win, two draws and two defeats from their last five. Both teams also come in off defeats, so the match lands at a moment when each side is trying to steady itself before the table tightens again.
The numbers still lean toward RB Leipzig. They have won three and drawn two of their last five meetings with FC Augsburg and remain unbeaten in the matchup. For Leipzig, that record matters as much as the standings do, because it gives them both a points cushion and a psychological edge heading into a home game they are expected to control.
But the clean numbers do not erase the one awkward detail for the hosts: their last match ended in defeat. That came after three straight wins, so the meeting with FC Augsburg is not arriving in a perfect run of form. Augsburg, meanwhile, can point to a narrower recent stretch of inconsistency, and that is what keeps this from being a simple table-vs-table forecast.
What happens next is straightforward. RB Leipzig and FC Augsburg meet in Leipzig on 7 November 2026 at 21:30, with the hosts trying to protect their unbeaten run against Augsburg and the visitors trying to cut a six-point gap that already stretches across seven places in the table.
