Red Bull Salzburg versus LASK
© Sports report
In the ÖFB Cup quarterfinals, the duel Red Bull Salzburg vs. LASK is on the program. For both teams, the first competitive game is in calendar year 2022 definitely one thing: trend-setting!
Due to the “internal Covid situation”, Red Bull Salzburg did not hold a training camp in winter. Not everything seemed to go as planned. So there was a defeat against Admira in the preparation. The first competitive game is therefore a sporting assessment of how the Austrian series champion is in shape.
Let’s come to the opponent: The interim coach became a permanent solution. Andreas Wieland is now the available head coach and is under contract with the Upper Austrians until the summer of 2024. There have been some changes in the player sector so far. The departures of striker Karamoko and clearer Grgic are particularly painful. With Branko Jovicic you could at least compensate for the departure of the latter personnel. The game itself WILL show how the offensive and the midfield center will present themselves in sporting terms.
Let’s take a look at the direct comparison: The two teams have already faced each other 130 times. The record speaks for the hosts. Including the “pre-Red Bull period”, Salzburg won 52 games. 37 games went to LASK. 41 duels ends in a draw. In the cup, the record at the end of the day is even clearer. Incidentally, the last duel in the cup was the final in the 2020/21 season. Red Bull Salzburg celebrated a 3-0 win in Klagenfurt back then. Can the bulls live up to their statistical role as favourites? The answer to this question WILL be provided by the game itself!
At this point, let’s focus on the sporting action, i.e. on the lawn of the Red Bull Arena. The signs already outlined probably point to a very interesting and probably also very intense game.
