Sturm started this season with an away draw against Wolfsberger. The team has not been very active in the transfer market this summer, but in vain, as the club will play in European competition, although not clear in which. Immediately after the match with Red Bull Salzburg, Sturm will have an away trip to Poland for the Champions League qualifying match, so they need to save their strength.
Salzburg has already secured participation in the Champions League group stage. The team has been active in the summer transfer campaign, selling several players from the main squad for a large amount and buying younger talents. The Bulls are already used to such a rotation after the transfer window, but this does not prevent them from being the strongest team in Austria. Salzburg started this season with a comfortable win by Austria, also one of the top teams. So we believe the Bulls will continue their winning streak.
Our prediction: Salzburg to win. We recommend the “2 Win” bet, odds 1.67
