Salzburg - LASK Linz predictions

With the 1.54 being what they are, we don’t expect anything other than a home win. Pulling off anything else would be a gargantuan task for LASK Linz, so we’d stay away unless you’re looking for a long shot on purpose.

The current perspective makes the situation clear. Given the superiority of Salzburg and the fact that LASK Linz are given 5.66 odds to win, it is easy to conclude that anything but a home win would be an unexpected shock.

Last round saw Salzburg take an early lead against Hartberg and maintain the momentum up until that last whistle. The match-up was highly favourable, of course, but the squad might be able to keep that same momentum going against LASK Linz.

The odds in the visitors’ previous matchup put them on equal footing with their opponents Sturm Graz, and the HT/FT Draw confirms this assessment. Of course, LASK Linz still got the short end of that stick. They were the hosts in that game, after all

Salzburg have been having issues defending lately, though it’s mostly affected their away games for now. They’ve recorded 5 concessions in the past 3 games as visitors.

The visitors are on a bit of a purple patch when it comes to scoring, with 5 goals scored in total in their latest 3 Tipico Bundesliga matches. If the trend continues, we’re bound to see a pretty exciting game here.

Salzburg clearly have the upper hand in this matchup, though it doesn’t seem insurmountable by any means. They won despite a home-field disadvantage the last time they clashed with LASK Linz, but it was a rather narrow victory.

Sunday's match will see both teams at full strength, able to utilize all their players.

An Over 3.5 Goals wager here can net you considerably better results than the Over 2.5 counterpart, and the probability of winning remains almost as strong. The 2.55 odds offered at 1xbet are great for value, too.
