Red Bull Salzburg vs Austria Klagenfurt Prediction: Salzburg are expected to turn things around

Red Bull Arena Salzburg will host the earlier postponed round 6 Austria Bundesliga encounter between Red Bull Salzburg and Austria Klagenfurt. In recent weeks, the two teams have struggled so much. How will they approach this game? 

Red Bull Salzburg's last league game was against Rapid Wien, and they settled for a 2-2 draw. In that game, Red Bull Salzburg took the lead twice, with Nicolas Capaldo and Dorgeles Nene striking for them. However, with second-half strikes from Jonas Auer and Isak Jansson, Red Bull Salzburg could only extend their unbeaten run with a draw. In prior encounters, Red Bull Salzburg had drawn and defeated Hartberg in consecutive encounters. Heading into this game, Red Bull Salzburg have 23 points from 15 league games. In those matches, the home side scored 23 goals while conceding 19 as they sit 5th.

Austria Klagenfurt suffered a defeat against BW Linz in their last game, ending 2-1 away from home. In that game, Ben Bobzien put Austria Klagenfurt in the lead from the spot in the 23rd minute. However, two strikes from Ronivaldo in the remaining minutes of the game were enough to see their opponent overturn the game. However, Austria Klagenfurt have faced defeats in their last four games, losing to Rapid Wien, Sturm Graz, and Tirol in that run. Austria Klagenfurt have failed to win any of their last six games, their best performance being a 2-2 draw with Altach. This season, Austria Klagenfurt have 15 points from a possible 45, leaving them 10th in the standings.  

Red Bull Salzburg are struggling week in and week out, and there are a lot of arguments about how well they could perform here. On the other hand, Austria and Klagenfurt are struggling so much and in a weaker situation compared to Red Bull Salzburg. At home, I expect Red Bull Salzburg to channel their strong level of play in attack and defence. While Austria Klagenfurt have struggled offensively and conceded many goals, I feel a bet on a 3-0 win for the host is a good option.
