Sunday’s action in the Austrian Bundesliga kicks off at Tivoli Stadion with WSG Tirol playing host to RB Salzburg. Eight goals were scored in the league games between these sides last season, and our prediction is that both teams will get on the scoresheet in this one. 

WSG Tirol endured a very poor 2025-26 season, finishing second-to-last in the standings with just 24 points, only four more than BW Linz, who were relegated from the top flight. 

Die Wattener have not started this season particularly well either, following up a hard-fought 1-1 draw on opening day against Sturm Graz with a 3-1 defeat to Altach on the road last weekend. 

However, the hosts are a tough team to defeat on their home patch, as they are unbeaten in their last five league games here and have lost just one of their last nine at this venue. 

Meanwhile, Red Bull Salzburg also had a disappointing last season, finishing in third place in the standings with 29 points, eight fewer than Sturm Graz and 10 less than league winners LASK. 

Die Roten Bullen kicked off the league season with a 1-0 victory over Hartberg before a 1-1 draw against Wolfsberger last week. They also beat Pafos in their Europa League qualifier 4-3. 

The visitors have drawn both their away games this season but are unbeaten in their last five visits to this venue.

Our Wattens vs Salzburg Prediction

WSG Tirol have not made the best start to the season, earning just one point from their first two games, but they are a difficult team to get the better of at home, having only lost one of their last nine games at this venue. 

While RB Salzburg are clear favourites in this match, they are coming into it off the back of a trip to Cyprus, where they were pushed to the limit by Pafos. We feel the visitors will have to outscore their opponents to win this one. Our WSG Tirol vs RB Salzburg prediction is BTTS.
