WSG Tirol form and stats

3 victories, 3 draws and 2 defeats. That’s what WSG Tirol have to build on here at Tivoli Stadion Tirol in the Admiral Bundesliga.

A strong away win for WSG Tirol against Wolfsberger AC the last match, as Sabitzer and Prica were on target. Midfielder Jensen was the best player on the team with a rating of 8.04 (out of ten) in that game. Jensen served one assist, hit three key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times.

Before that match, a defeat in the away fixture against Sandhausen in the Tipsport Malta Cup.

Goal party? Nobody knows what will happen in this one, but we do know that 13 of the 17 latest league games with this club has contained three or more goals.

Tirol has scored 10 league goals at home this season, in 8 matches. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the WSG Tirol defense is not exactly impregnable. 13 goals conceded from 8 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Salzburg form and stats

Rock solid. That's the only way to describe the travels of Salzburg so far, with 7-0-1 (wins-draws-losses) so far. Those are Admiral Bundesliga statistics. In general it has been a productive period now for Salzburg as they haven't lost any of their last 15 games.

The Salzburg goalkeeper Philipp Köhn is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 194 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.

The supporters enjoyed Salzburg's previous match versus Roma, a Europa League win (1-0) played at home. Köhn was the team player of the game with the player rating of 7.61. The agile goalkeeper Köhn topped it up with a clean sheet.

That result followed a home victory 4-0 versus Austria Lustenau in the Admiral Bundesliga.

Salzburg have another fixture that requires travelling in just four days, a Europa League match versus Roma. A back-breaking fixture list for the visitors!

Salzburg are a potent attacking force on the road with their 21 goals in 8 league games. It's not easy to score on Salzburg as they have only conceded 6 goals from these away games.

Head 2 Head

The 4 latest games involving these teams have all ended as Salzburg victories. More of the same or streak broken?

The two combatants have battled earlier this season: Salzburg - Tirol 2-0.
