Sunday victory against Austria and celebration of the championship. Next Sunday cup final against Ried in Klagenfurt. depraved for RB Salzburg the top game at runners-up Sturm Graz on Wednesday as a tiresome compulsory exercise?
Bundesliga championship group, 29th matchday
“Of course, the cup final is still a little in the back of our minds – we definitely want to make the double perfect,” says coach Matthias Jaissle in a broadcast from Salzburg, making no secret of his priorities. “We’ll have to see how we approach it in terms of personnel. We’ll decide that at short notice.”
Daouda Guindo (back) and Bryan Okoh (knee) both missed out. Nico Capaldo (knee) and Noah Okafor (contusion) are doubtful. Mohamed Camara is suspended, already got the ninth yellow card against Austria. It’s quite possible that Jaissle uses the farm team FC Liefering. The second division team has not played a competitive game since April 18. The youth league finalists of the Salzburg U19 will be halfway rested again on Wednesday.
Sturm Graz have won all of their last four home games and have been unbeaten in seven Bundesliga games at the Merkur Arena. The Styrians will not draw on unlimited resources either. Jon-Gorenc Stankovic is suspended. Otar Kiteishvili and Anderson Niangbo were injured (as was Stankovic) against Rapid and are doubtful. Gregory Wüthrich is yellow and red and Rasmus Höjlund received his fifth yellow card in Hütteldorf.
