Both teams are enjoying a good season so far and games like this could be decisive. Here's the preview for Salzburg - LASK Linz!
- Salzburg has the most scored goals (34) in Tipico Bundesliga
- LASK Linz is in the best form (5-1-0)
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Salzburg form and stats
Salzburg, who have the most scored goals (34) in Tipico Bundesliga, have played 4 Tipico Bundesliga games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 3-0-1 (wins-draws-losses).
Salzburg's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-2 versus Atletico Madrid. A Tipico Bundesliga defeat was the result before that one, 0-1 away at Admira.
The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Salzburg matches with similar probabilities have ended with zero wins, zero draws and one defeat (from one game).
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Rapid Vienna are coming to town in three days.
With more than three goals on average, the attacking play of Salzburg is on fire here. A stunning 17 from 4 league matches. On the other hand, Salzburg have conceded 5 goals.
LASK Linz form and stats
Playing away, LASK Linz, who have the most clean sheets (6) in Tipico Bundesliga, have won 1 game, drawn 2 and suffered 1 defeat in the Tipico Bundesliga this season.
The LASK Linz goalkeeper Alexander Schlager is collecting clean sheets like a laundry worker. It's been 217 league minutes without conceding a goal, and counting.
LASK play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-1 victory visiting Ludogorets. Prior to that match, a home win 3-0 against Ried in the Tipico Bundesliga.
As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and LASK playing away, we found two games. Results were one away win, zero draws and one home win.
After this away game LASK return home for a Austrian Cup game against Elektra. That game is only three sleeps after this.
LASK have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 4 league away games 4 goals have been scored. As opposed to that, LASK have seen the ball go into their own net 5 times on the road.
Head 2 Head
As for the last ten games between these two teams, there's six Salzburg victories, two draws and two LASK Linz wins. Over/under statistics; seven of these games ended with three goals or more, three matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
