The Austrian Bundesliga is promising us blockbuster-worthy entertainment on Sunday when Salzburg travels to Rapid Wien for their Championship Round bout. Only four games remain, and Die Roten Bullen (The Red Bulls) are just one point off Strum Graz at the top. Can Salzburg beat Rapid Wien this time for a shot at the top? Find out in our match prediction.
Salzburg are locked in for this final chapter, and leaving little to no room for mistakes. The Red Bulls are coming off back-to-back 3-1 wins over Austria Wien, and three wins in their last four. However, standing in their way in Matchday 29 is a Rapid Wien side that’s beaten Salzburg in their last two encounters.
Die Roten Bullen will attribute the latest loss to Rapid to a 67th-minute red card that saw them concede just two minutes later. Now, they arrive at the perfect time to enact their revenge, as Die Grün-Weißen (The Green-Whites) are on a four-game winless streak.
Rapid just lost the latest game to Hartberg in this stadium, recording back-to-back home defeats after losing the previous to Strum Graz by the same scoreline (2-0). If Salzburg hopes to avoid another second-fiddle status to Strum, who won the league last season, they must find a way to win on these same grounds where they’ve lost three of their last four trips.

Our Rapid Wien vs Salzburg Prediction
It’s definitely going to be a tricky game, but it’s one where Salzburg should come out on top. Offensively, they’ve been the absolute best team this season, recording the most goals and ten more than league leaders Sturm Graz and 19 more than the hosts.
They may have some poor history on these grounds in recent times. But the momentum in Rapid Wien today is low, as they host this game winless in their last four, with back-to-back defeats at home. Hence, our Rapid Wien vs Salzburg prediction is that Salzburg wins.
