📋 Team News: LASK Linz

The LASK Linz boss Dietmar Kühbauer will be happy not to have any fitness concerns to speak of before this game owing to a completely healthy group available to select from.

We are thinking that LASK Linz will probably go for a 4-2-3-1 system for the game, handing starts to Tobias Lawal, Filip Stojkovic, Philipp Ziereis, Felix Luckeneder, Marvin Potzmann, Branko Jovicic, Sascha Horvath, Moses Usor, Robert Zulj, Keito Nakamura and Ibrahim Mustapha.

📰 Team News: Red Bull Salzburg

Red Bull Salzburg boss Matthias Jaissle has some current player fitness concerns. Fernando (Thigh Problems), Daouda Guindo (Knee Surgery), Justin Omoregie (Back trouble), Luka Sucic (Knee Surgery) and Samson Tijani (Tibia and Fibula Fracture) are names that won’t be on the team sheet.

We are inclined to think that Die Bullen appear most likely to elect for a 4-1-3-2 lineup, starting Philipp Köhn, Amar Dedić, Oumar Solet, I. Van der, Andreas Ulmer, Lucas Gourna-Douath, Nicolás Capaldo, Maurits Kjaergaard, Nicolas Seiwald, Chukwubuike Adamu and Noah Okafor.

🔮 Prediction

Here is a game where LASK Linz might well have a job on their hands to hit the back of the net against this Red Bull Salzburg lineup who we think should end up scoring and staying ahead.

We therefore fancy a narrow 0-1 winning score for Red Bull Salzburg after 90 minutes.

Little in this one.
