Red Bull Salzburg vs Sturm Graz Prediction: A crucial encounter for the two teams

Red Bull Arena Salzburg will be the venue for round 20 of the Austria Bundesliga League contest between Red Bull Salzburg and Sturm Graz. The two teams won their last league game. Which team wins this one? Below, I will preview this game and offer predictions. 

Red Bull Salzburg

Red Bull Salzburg played Austria Vienna in their last league game and won. In what was a road game, Oscar Gloukh's strike in the first half was enough to see this team take maximum points. In the meantime, Red Bull Salzburg have not lost any of their last three matches, settling for draws with Tirol and Austria Klagenfurt. In their last five home matches, this team's lone win was against Austria Klagenfurt last December, losing three and drawing one. With 31 points, Red Bull Salzburg are seated 4th with 28 goals scored and 20 conceded. 

Sturm Graz

Sturm Graz's last league contest was against BW Linz and they secured a win. In a 2-1 contest, two first-half strikes from Otar Kiteishvili and Malick Yalcouye were enough to see this team take maximum points. However, prior encounters to that win saw Sturm Graz go winless in four matches. In that run, Sturm Graz lost to Sturm Graz, Rukh Lviv and Wolfsberger AC, while they drew Austria Vienna. Away from home, Sturm Graz have failed to win any of their last six matches, losing five and drawing one. With 40 points, Sturm Graz are seated at the top of the standings, scoring 44 goals and conceding 22. 

Expert Betting Tips

The two teams have been struggling lately, and it is just difficult to back any of them. While they secured a win in their last league game, they will be confident to turn the tables here and keep things running. However, I feel Sturm Graz, as the better team all season, should be able to win despite Red Bull Salzburg being at home. I expect a low-scoring contest, and I will back the visiting team too.
