Rapid Vienna vs Salzburg Prediction & Betting tips
It could have been exciting again in the Austrian Bundesliga. After Red Bull Salzburg only drew twice in the WAC doubles, the competition from Hütteldorf had another chance to flirt with the title.
However, the Kühbauer team received one defeat on Sunday and is now six points behind the direct duel. On Wednesday evening there will be a top match between Rapid Vienna and Red Bull Salzburg in the Allianz Stadium of the Green-Whites.
Before the duel on Wednesday evening, a look at our integrated betting base table service is urgently necessary, because on Monday evening there were again shifts in the classification of the Austrian Bundesliga. The point deduction of the LASK was reduced from six to four points, so the black and white are only two points behind Rapid Vienna.
Thus, not only could the dream of title number 33 finally burst, but Rapid could also fall back to third place in the Bundesliga in the event of a defeat. The best bookmakers between Rapid Vienna and Red Bull Salzburg consider a tip on the home side to be extremely risky.
The game starts on Wednesday evening at 19:30 p.m. In addition to the preview of the top game, the other games of the fourth to last round can be found in the soccer Austria tip category.
Rapid Vienna:
Before last Sunday, the hope of a successful Mission 33 was a little nourished again. Five points behind and a direct duel in the hindquarters provided a mini-mini opportunity. However, this was probably definitely lost in the home game against TSV Hartberg.
After the game caused a stir with a sexist poster even before the kick-off, the heavily weakened Rapid-Elf was unable to prevail against the Styrian underdog. Seasoned Tadic put Hartberg in the lead just before the half-time whistle and from then on the record champion bit his teeth.
The loss of twelve (!) Squad players could not be compensated. The bad luck of injuries for the green-whites in these play-offs is actually hard to put into words. After all, top goal scorer Fountas, shooting start Arase and youngster Greiml should return to the squad on Wednesday and thus relax the tense personnel situation a little.
Although Didi Kühbauer feels forced to make several changes in each game, the green-whites generally appear to be absolutely solid. After the 2-0 defeat at the start in Wals-Siezenheim, the rapid defense only conceded two more goals in the following five games.
Red Bull Salzburg:
In the basic round of the Austrian Bundesliga, Salzburg celebrated two clear wins with three goals each over Wolfsberg, but in the doubles of the play-offs the designated champions had to make do with two draws.
The draw last Sunday was disappointing and even more surprising than the loss of points in the Lavant Valley. Salzburg took command and had many chances to score. At the latest after the 2-0 lead, the game seemed decided. In the finish, however, the guests risked everything and were actually rewarded.
In Salzburg, after the exertions of the past weeks, the fatigue was clearly noticeable and the liveliness was missing even more minute by minute. The two goals also resulted from simple mistakes. However, Marsch and his team did not want to go to court too hard and immediately focused on the top game in Hütteldorf.
At the press conference after the game, Marsch described the point as an important counter, and finally the lead over the green-whites could be extended. With six points and 37 goals ahead, Marsch didn’t have to be a prophet to say that everything was over with a win.
Although there is still a question mark behind the table due to the LASK violations, Salzburg would have had a comfortable cushion of four points even without a deduction for the black and white.
There is definitely no reason to relax, the personnel situation in the camp of the bulls is certainly much more positive than that of the green-whites. The direct comparison between Rapid Vienna and Red Bull Salzburg supports a forecast in the direction of the eleven from the city of Mozart.
