Our prediction for the match Red Bull Salzburg and Brest
“The Bulls” dominated Austrian football for a long time. Still, this streak was interrupted: the team finally allowed Sturm to climb to 1st place in the previous cycle. Speaking about “the Pirates”, the previous Ligue 1 draw turned out to be a breakthrough, and an unexpected one: a modest team, from which nothing was expected, finished in 3rd position.
The French club does not look so strong now. Despite the active signing of new players, among whom it is reasonable to mention Amavi, Faivre and Edimilson Fernandes, the team started the new Ligue 1 draw with 3 defeats in 4 rounds, albeit in combination with a 4-0 score in the game against Saint-Etienne. And a 2-0 misfire in the meeting with Toulouse was followed by a failure in the game against Auxerre – 0-3. Pep Lijnders appeared in Austria, but “the Bulls” began to “limp” after a start of 3 victories: a 2-3 score with Rapid in Vienna and a 0-0 draw in the struggle with Tirol. Finally, the previous week brought successes both in the cup tournament and in the championship, in the confrontation with Austria.
“Salzburg” managed to get through 2 rounds of the Champions League qualification. Moreover, both Twente and Dynamo Kyiv were knocked out according to an identical scenario: the team won the first match, after which the second one ended in a draw. Still, it lost without a chance in Prague in September – 0-3. The French club debuted, ironically, with a reception of other Austrians, from Sturm. And it won with a 2-1 result.
