Blau-Weiss Linz, Recent FormBlau-Weiss Linz were forced to settle for a share of the points in their last league match, which wound up a 1-1 draw against SCR Altach. They came away from that fixture with 39% of the possession and clocked up 2 attempts on goal with 1 on target. By comparison, SCR Altach managed 21 attempts on goal, with 6 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 8 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win. Their home form in the early part of the season has produced an unusually high number of draws, with 5 draws in 9 home league games.
Ronivaldo Sales will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Blau-Weiss Linz.
Red Bull Salzburg, Recent FormRed Bull Salzburg had to settle for a share of the spoils in their last match, which ran out a 1-1 draw against Sturm Graz. Their share of possession in that meeting was 51%, while racking up 17 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. Sturm Graz had 7 shots on goal with 1 on target.
Manager Gerhard Struber will be pleased with his team's performances recently, having only conceded 3 in their last 6 games, while still managing to score a respectable 8 goals. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, and playing away from home, they're currenlty on a run of 3 clean sheets in a row.
They have not lost away from home for an impressive 24 games in a row.
Sékou Koïta will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Blau-Weiss Linz in this match, having already scored 4 goals in his last 6 away games for Red Bull Salzburg.
It ended in disappointment and a 0-1 defeat for Red Bull Salzburg last time they met Blau-Weiss Linz in the league, with BW Linz defying the odds to take the win.
With no real injury worries, BW Linz manager Gerald Scheiblehner will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Gerhard Struber has a number of injury concerns in his RB Salzburg squad to contend with: Nicolás Capaldo (Knee), Fernando dos Santos Pedro (Thigh) and Bryan Okoh (Knee)
