RB Salzburg’s European campaign this season starts in the third qualifying round of the Europa League as they meet Pafos. The first leg of this tie will be hosted in Salzburg, who are coming off two straight wins, making them the pick in our prediction.
The Austrians started the season with a bang, beating SV Oberwart 7-1. They followed that up with a 1-0 win at home against Hartberg. For a side that closed last season winless in four matches, Salzburg will see this as a good platform for a sprint into the new campaign.
They will need the best of luck too, after managing just two wins in their eight league phase matches in the Europa League last season.
Pafos are targeting a third straight main draw appearance in a UEFA competition. They were in the Conference League two seasons ago, and they reached the league stage of the Champions League last season.
In the UCL, they managed two wins in eight in the league phase. Heading into this encounter, Pafos had a remarkable recovery at home after falling 2-0 to Hajduk Split.
They won the return leg 4-0 and will want to take the confidence emanating from that into this game. A winless run of five games away in Europe, however, indicates Pafos’s struggles may persist.

Our Salzburg vs Pafos FC Prediction
In the last round Pafos recovered from their first-leg defeat to eliminate Hajduk Split. Their hope is to start better in this tie, which is sure to be tougher than the earlier one. Pafos have a poor run away from home in European competitions.
They haven’t won any of the last five matches on the road in Europe, losing three. That, coupled with Salzburg’s strong start to the season, will be a huge problem for the visitors. Our prediction for RB Salzburg v Pafos is for Salzburg to win & over 2.5 goals.
