A real hit awaits today in the Eisarena Salzburg when HC Bozen challenges the Red Bulls Salzburg. It will be a special game for Dominique Heinrich and Peter Hochkofler is also happy about a milestone.

The South Tyroleans won the first two duels, but the Salzburg team gained new self-confidence by beating the leader Innsbruck. Benjamin Nissner is also looking forward to the top game: “These are always exciting duels. It will certainly be heated again this time. We have to get our game back for more than 60 minutes, then that’ll be fine,” he told the Kronen Zeitung.

For defender Dominique Heinrich, the game against the foxes will be a very special one. He is contesting his 768th league game in Salzburg dress, drawing level with record holder Matthias Trattnig. The defender is happy about this value: “Because today it is not a matter of course to play for a club for so long.”

Team colleague Peter Hochkofler also had reason to celebrate. On Friday he scored two assists, while the scorer points were 99 and 100 in the top league.
