Salzburg vs Austria Vienna Prediction and Betting Tips | September 28th 2024

Salzburg and Austria Vienna will battle for three points in an Austrian Bundesliga round eight clash on Saturday (September 28th). The hosts are coming into the game on the back of a 4-0 away victory over Winer Viktoria in the OFB Cup in midweek.

They were two goals ahead by the break courtesy of goals from Peter Ratkov and Edmund Baidoo. Franz Simmer's own goal on the hour-mark put them 3-0 up while Karim Konate wrapped up the scoring midway through the second half.

Die Roten Bullen will turn their attention back to the league where their last game saw them held to a goalless draw away to Tirol.

Austria Vienna, meanwhile, shared the spoils in a 2-2 draw at home to Sturm Graz. They were 2-0 down at the break, with William Boving and Seedy Jatta scoring to give the visitors a two-goal lead. However, Graz were reduced to nine men in the 57th minute and Vienna promptly took advantage, halving the deficit just three minutes later. Lucas Galvao drew the game level in the 74th minute.

The stalemate left the Violets in sixth spot in the table, having garnered nine points from seven games. Salzburg are one point and one spot better off.
