RB Salzburg will play host to Club Brugge in the first leg of the third qualifying round of the Champions League on Wednesday, August 6, at the Red Bull Arena. The winner of this tie between Die Roten Bullen and the Blauw-Zwart will take on either Rangers or Viktoria Plzen in the Playoff round. Let's get into our match prediction.
RB Salzburg are looking to maintain their 100% record of featuring in every Champions League main draw since 2019-20, albeit they only got beyond the group stage once in this period.
Last season, Die Roten Bullen had a forgettable UCL campaign, suffering seven defeats in eight matches and conceding two or more goals in each of those losses.
The hosts overcame Brann in the last qualifying round 6-2 on aggregate and are unbeaten after four games across all competitions this season, winning two and drawing two.
Meanwhile, Club Brugge have only missed out on qualifying for this competition once since 2019-20. They reached the round of 16 in this competition last season, where they bowed out to Aston Villa.
Blauw-Zwart will be entering the UCL qualifiers in this round following a mixed start to this season, winning one and losing one of their first two First Division A games in 2025-26.
These sides crossed paths in the Europa League group stage in 2019 and split the results one win apiece, with both teams earning victory in their home matches.

Our Salzburg vs Club Brugge Prediction
Both of these sides reached the main draw of this competition last season, but Salzburg endured a tough campaign, and you get the feeling that they need to secure a lead in this home leg if they are to progress to the next round of qualifiers.
Club Brugge, on the other hand, were one of the surprise packages in this competition last season, having reached the last 16 despite finishing 24th in the League Phase. They scored in every away game last season, and we fancy them to get on the scoresheet on this one as well. Our RB Salzburg vs Club Brugge prediction is both teams to score.
