Sturm Graz vs Salzburg Prediction & Betting tips
Football has regained momentum in Austria after the corona-related interruption, and Red Bull Salzburg in particular is particularly offensive in excellent shape. The break seems to have been good for the team of Jesse Marsch, the processes seem very solid.
But it is not just the very good condition of the guests that gives the impression of a clear difference between the two teams.
Sturm Graz also contributed a lot to these signs, lost significantly at the weekend and is in last place for the championship group of the best six teams after the regular season
Now somehow a surprise should succeed in the game against the industry leader. Without the support of the spectators in this game, however, this will be even harder than it already is.
Sturm Graz:
Before the game Sturm Graz vs. Red Bull Salzburg give the host little courage. As mentioned at the beginning, the odds of a home win are two-digit, the last game at Rapid Wien was a disaster.
Sturm Graz not only presented themselves without ideas at Rapid, but also had major problems on the defensive. The team of coach Nestor El Maestro lost 0: 4 in Vienna – even at altitude it was completely okay. That came as a surprise, because Sturm Graz conceded 30 goals in advance – a solid record.
Sturm Graz is already waiting for four players to win, the gap between them is increasing. Hartberg is still within striking distance, the LASK is already six points behind, Rapid and Wolfsberg even seven. The current situation is anything but good, which is why Sturm Graz vs. Red Bull Salzburg our forecast that the guest from Salzburg will leave the course as the winner.
In this situation, there is no real home or away disadvantage without spectators, so that at least the “home weakness” of Sturm Graz will not have a particular impact. For coach Nestor El Maestro, the goal now is to build the team.
That will also be necessary, because Red Bull Salzburg will try from the beginning to press very aggressively and to pose problems for the insecure back team. Sturm Graz must become defensively more attentive, improve their own possession game and act more precisely in the attack third. Actually, all parts of the team have to show an increase in performance so that a surprise can succeed.
A closer look at the season so far shows that Sturm Graz lacks a classic scorer. No player in the squad has scored more than six goals, Sturm Graz is the worst offensive in the master group. Whether this changes on Tuesday can be followed live with the livescore function at the betting base.
At least coach Nestor El Maestro can fall back on the entire squad, but after the debacle in Vienna there will be some changes.
Red Bull Salzburg:
Before the corona-related season break, Red Bull Salzburg almost saw a crisis. The team of coach Jesse Marsch not only failed several times, they also didn’t play good football. But the break was extremely good for the team, in the last few games Red Bull Salzburg got back into gear – at least.
The games after the season break can be summarized quickly. First the cup win was won, then Rapid Vienna and Hartberg were beaten confidently and superiorly. 13-0 goals in three games speak a clear language: Red Bull Salzburg got rolling again!
The team therefore plays at a high level and, especially on the offensive, appears extremely playful and fluid again.
In the 6-0 win in Hartberg, the young Patson Daka once again played in the foreground, scoring a triple pack and making a significant contribution to Red Bull Salzburg’s win. The incredible offensive form ensures that Sturm Graz vs. Red Bull Salzburg our value tip is that more than 3.5 goals will be scored. The host’s defensive problems also play a role.
A look at the table of the Bundesliga in Austria shows that Red Bull Salzburg is marching straight towards the championship title. Benefiting from the deduction of the LASK, Salzburg is now seven points ahead of the pursuers from Wolfsberg and Vienna. Add to that a fantastic goal difference of +56.
With Philipp Köhn, Rasmus Kristensen, Antoine Bernede and Masaya Okugawa, Jesse Marsch has to do without four players. The eleven, who won 6-0 in Hartberg at the weekend, will play again with a few exceptions.
