Austria Vienna vs LASK Linz Prediction & Betting tips
With much euphoria, the two top Viennese clubs started the new season 2019/20. After only 90 minutes, the euphoria gives way to pure disillusionment. Although Vienna is the capital of Austria, in football the capital has been playing the second fiddle for years. In addition to the cops from the city of Mozart, the LASK also outstripped the Green-Whites and the Violets from Vienna in the recent past. On the second match day, the runner-up can prove this again. In the Generali-Arena duel between Austria Wien and the LASK!
In contrast to the eleven from Vienna favorites, the LASK mastered the prelude to the new season brilliantly and celebrated a sovereign kick-off success against the westernmost Bundesliga club from Altach. Equal opportunity for both teams is the fact that both the LASK (CL Qualification) and the Vienna Austria (Europa League Qualification) will be represented internationally next week. The game starts on Saturday at 16 pm, to be seen live on SkySport Austria!
Austria Vienna:
It is an open secret that Christian Ilzer was spoiled for choice this summer. In the end, he chose Vienna Austria, but he would have liked to see him at the LASK as well. Little wonder, because in the last two years Ilzer delivered outstanding performances with supposedly small clubs. Consequently, he was also elected coach of the year 2018/19. In Vienna favorites, the pressure is much higher and with benefits like that last weekend in Tyrol, he will win no sympathy points.
Ilzer tried the weak performance in the 1: 3 defeat against the newly promoted WSG Tirol by no means beautiful. The Neo-coach did not save after his first Bundesliga game as a violet coach with criticism and was completely disappointed with the appearance of his team. After the sovereign cup victory against fourth division Köttmannsdorf (nine goals were scored) this performance was not expected. Already in the second league match reparation is on the program. The violets are likely to be much more aggressive than in the first league game and take the scepter itself in the hand. Basically, we see the violets this season with Ilzer on the bench quite on a level with the LASK, but the performance in the first league game scares off. In this respect, we also distance in the duel between Austria Vienna and the LASK of a forecast on the home side, despite quite lucrative odds.
LASK:
Fans, responsibles, players and even Neo-coach Valerien Ismael agreed after the first 90 Bundesliga minutes in the 2019/20 season. The way the LASK appeared was clearly the signature of successful trainer Oliver Glasner. This summer, the question was often asked how the Black and Whites will cope with the departure of their trainer. Doubts were definitely there and certainly justified. Because with Joao Victor and Maximilian Ullmann also two top performers have turned the club in the summer in the back.
In the first game of the new season there were hardly any changes. Both the system (3-4-3) and the players (only Rene Renner stood as a newcomer in the starting lineup) were almost unchanged compared to last year. You do not have to change your successful football, but Valerien Ismael wants to adapt the playing style and become even more variable. The game forward is strong and despite a supposed triple chain is the team from the steel city of Linz extremely safe. Last season there were only 31 goals conceded, this does not even concede one goal per game.
The role as a favorite in Vienna favorites is a little surprising at first glance, but with a look at the achievements of the LASK abroad, but completely comprehensible. The LASK recorded an excellent 10-3-3 balance in the previous year. The LASK lost only the two appearances in Wals-Siezenheim and surprisingly against the later relegated Wacker Innsbruck. The self-confidence is enormous and with this ease, the tendency in the duel between Austria Vienna and the LASK in the direction of a tip on the guests.
