2023 champions Salzburg are set to square off with Hartberg at Red Bull Arena on matchday one of the Austrian Bundesliga. With nine victories against Hartberg in their last 11 home matches and over 2.5 goals landing in seven, our prediction favours Salzburg to win in another high-scoring affair.
It's now three full seasons without a league crown for Salzburg, who concluded last season in third place with 29 points in the championship group.
That league finish secured them a place in the Europa League qualifiers, although they will enter the competition in the third qualifying round on August 6, with their opponents still to be confirmed.
The Red Bulls' start to the 2026-27 campaign has been nothing but short of impressive, with their first competitive match a 7-1 away thrashing of SV Oberwart in the first round of the OFB Cup.
Hartberg finished at the bottom of the Championship Group with 25 points and narrowly missed out on a spot in the Conference League playoffs by two points.
Manfred Schmid's men can take confidence that their final Championship Group match last season ended in a 3-1 away victory over Salzburg, a result that not only gives them belief but shows they are capable of troubling the Austrian giants.
To start off the 2026-27 season, the Styria outfit beat SC Imst 3-1 away from home in the first round of the OFB Cup.

Our Salzburg vs Hartberg Prediction
Salzburg concluded last season without winning their final four games and are hoping that form doesn't catch up with them in the current campaign, where they are favourites to secure their first win. That confidence from the bookmakers stems from their dominant display over Hartberg at Red Bull Arena.
Hartberg's 3-1 win at this venue in the previous season was their first win in ten games. They had lost nine of those games while conceding 34 goals - an average of 3.7 goals per game. Defeat here is inevitable. Our Salzburg vs Hartberg prediction: Salzburg wins and over 2.5 goals.
