Salzburg have no decent opponents in Austria. The side has solid roster and demonstrates tough play. “Die Roten Bullen” had confidently won the UEFA Europa League group which had been formed by Marseille, Konyaspor and Guimaraes and then knocked out Borussia Dortmund with Real Sociedad in the previous Play Offs rounds. Salzburg’s offense looked convincing enough with 13 scored goals, however, their defense were also tremendously strong, having conceded only five goals. In the latest tackles conducted on the road “Die Roten Bullen” have earned 2:2 draw against Mattersburg together with two triumphs over Borussia Dortmund 2:1 and Sturm Graz 4:2.
The teams have met two times already and both their head-to-heads ended in favour of Salzburg. At the moment “I Biancocelesti” have a bit higher football class than their upcoming rivals, nevertheless, “Die Roten Bullen” are not likely to fail with a handsome margin in the forthcoming battle.
Prediction for the match: Salzburg to win with +1.0 Asian handicap.
