🧠 Prediction

Our thinking is that Red Bull Salzburg will most probably have the majority of the possession and should be able to turn a few of their chances into goals.

At the other end, Sturm Graz might well find it a difficult task to break down their defence although we do think that they will probably end up converting at least once here, too.

Our selection here is for a 3-1 win for Red Bull Salzburg at the end of this one.
