Tirol vs Red Bull Salzburg Prediction: Red Bull Salzburg have to be at the top of their game

Tivoli Stadion Tirol will host the Austria Bundesliga League encounter between Tirol and Red Bull Salzburg. Looking at the winning chances of this game are, it is clear the game could go either way. Let’s preview this game and make predictions.

Tirol's last game was against Ingolstadt in a club friendly, and this team secured a 1-2 win. In what was a road game, Tirol took the lead in the 21st minute through Stefan Skrbo’s strike. However, Deniz Zeitler leveled the score for Ingolstadt before the break, and this team needed a 68th-minute Osarenren Okungbowa strike to secure a win in that encounter. However, in their last league game, Tirol played Sturm Graz, and they lost 4-2 away from home. In Tirol's last matches into this game, this team won two while losing four others.

Red Bull Salzburg's last encounter was in the UEFA Champions League away from home against Sparta Prague, and this team lost 3-0. In that game, Red Bull Salzburg were two goals down before the break, with Kaan Kairinen and Victor Olatunji both scoring for their opponent. However, failing to show any strong play, Red Bull Salzburg conceded the third goal just 13 minutes into the second goal while failing to create a big chance in the whole 90 minutes. Heading into this encounter, it is important to note that Red Bull Salzburg also lost their last league game, which was against Rapid Wien. In the league, however, the road team has 9 points from a possible 12 this season, leaving them seated 5th in the standings. 

The two teams are not at the top level right now, but looking at the better side, Red Bull Salzburg has a better chance of winning. While on the road, I do not expect them to have an easy encounter, but with consecutive defeats in important matches, I expect this team to draw inspiration and end on the winning side. Also, Tirol has not been good offensively this season, and I expect them to struggle here, too.
