Red Bull Salzburg against LASK in LIVETICKER

Four days after the 2-1 triumph over Lille everything seems set for the next “three”, doubts about the young Bull squad are currently difficult. Of course, Salzburg coach Matthias Jaissle has not escaped the fact that LASK has recently shown an upward trend.

LASK unbeaten before the cops duel

“The LASK comes back with greater self-confidence.

Since Andreas Wieland took over from Dominik Thalhammer in mid-September, the Linzers have won three wins and two draws in five compulsory games and are once again committed to their “old” game philosophy. “They are much better at sport and generally bring a lot of quality.

Nicolas Seiwald, with his top performances at Red Bull Salzburg, is an obvious choice for the senior national team.

Seiwald doesn’t care about records

After the fourth Champions League triumph and the first win against a European team from the top five leagues, Red Bull Salzburg can set further records on Sunday. But whoever believes a nun …

Seiwald is Salzburg’s newcomer of the season

Midfielder Nicolas Seiwald saw it similarly. “LASK is in good shape and an unpleasant opponent. Recently they also scored regularly, we also have to be focused to win. But we are ready for that,” said one of the big winners of this season. Seiwald already had numerous short appearances in the spring, but now it is impossible to imagine Jaissle’s starting line-up without him.

The reward: Team boss Franko Foda brought the 20-year-old into the ÖFB team for the first time on demand. “That makes me proud,” emphasized the man from Kuchl.

Pure self-confidence in the cop camp

After successes like in the Champions League, it is no problem to flip the switch for the domestic lowlands. “Not that difficult for us because we are a young group that is always hungry for more”, “Sonnen Seiwald fest”.

Nor did Jaissle see any problems. “There is no tendency to foresee that there will be difficulties,” published the coach, who is still unbeaten in 15 compulsory games (14 wins). And also: “I don’t know if there is too much healthy self-confidence.”

The LASK’s recent record against the overwhelming power from Wals-Siezenheim is sobering. In eight competitive games including two cup matches (semi-finals 2020 and final 2021) there were just as many defeats (goal difference 5:21). The last win, a 3-2 win in Wals-Siezenheim, dates back to February 2020. “The starting position is very logical: We are not the favorites now,” said Wieland succinctly when referring to the Red Bull Arena.

Linz on the upswing

After all, Wieland seems to be able to regain self-confidence in the lurching LASK kickers. “Good actions in pressing, winning the ball, so we can play out chances – that gives you a boost, you notice that the system is working and that everything we do has a plan,” said offensive actor Thomas Goiginger, describing the current situation in the middle of the week. In the table, they climbed back to sixth place from the very bottom, but still only have two points ahead of the Red Lantern.

The 1-1 draw in the Conference League against Maccabi Tel Aviv will last like a forgiven victory for Linz on Thursday, but it will probably be easier on Sunday. In any case, it is “an extremely exciting challenge where we can take the next step, where we can polish our game again, where we will try to get out again,” stressed Wieland.
