Salzburg form and stats

The away performances of Salzburg have been very solid so far with 10 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat in the Admiral Bundesliga. The question is whether this happy travelling can continue. In general it has been a productive period now for Salzburg as they haven't lost any of their last 24 games.

Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. Salzburg goalkeeper Philipp Köhn is eager to challenge this, with his 190 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.

It's the second away game in a row for Salzburg, but there's smiles all around after the 2-0 victory versus Sturm Graz last time out. Defender Solet was the best team player with a rating of 8.05. Solet won 11 of 11 duels.

A 0-0 draw was the result before that, hosting LASK Linz.

Salzburg create on average more than 2,5 goals per away game (in the league) all by themselves, having scored 30 goals in 11 travels. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (9 so far). There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 0 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.

Salzburg have managed a sequence of 17 consecutive matches without losing (15-2-0) when facing Vienna.

The squads have met each other previously this season, with the match result Rapid Vienna - Salzburg 2-4 entered in the official records.
