Salzburg vs Austria Wien – It came as no surprise that Salzburg won the title of Austrian premier league last season. They will try to win the championship again this year, and they want to start their defence with a victory over Austria Wien.
At the end of the regular season, the Red Bulls had built up an 18-point advantage and had been lost only once during that stretch. They led the competition in both goals scored and allowed.
Through 32 games, they had scored 77 times, which was impressive enough, but they had only conceded 19 times. Meanwhile, Austria’s campaign was significantly less successful.
The disparity in goal differentials between the two teams is striking; whereas one had a +5 advantage, the other had a +58 advantage. In addition, they have a bad head-to-head record against this opponent over the past few years, thus taking all of this into account, a win for Salzburg is likely this weekend.
Salzburg vs Austria Wien – Betting Analysis
The most recent match ended with a 5-0 victory for Salzburg. They have won their last seven games in a row. Twelve of the previous thirteen meetings have been victories for them. Three of the previous four games at this location resulted in clean sheets for the home team.
Since November of 2021, Salzburg has just twice been defeated, a testament to their dominance. One of those losses was in the Champions League semifinals, against Bayern Munich. They had extended winning streaks and scored frequently throughout this period.
However, Austria did finish the season before with two consecutive victories. It should be mentioned, however, that before to that, they were winless in their previous seven matches and had suffered a three-game losing skid.
Additionally, they have had road woes for quite some time, and more crucially, they have a poor head-to-head record versus this opponent throughout the years.
