Bundesliga LIVE: Red Bull Salzburg meets SCR Altach. We report live (ticker below). It’s currently 0-0.
Here is the live ticker: Three defeats and one draw from four competitive games: Red Bull Salzburg is currently faced with a very unusual record. In the home game against SCR Altach, the defending champions want to return to winning ways in the 12th round of the Bundesliga on Saturday (5 p.m./live in the sportkrone.at ticker). That would also be important in order to satisfy the audience, which is used to success and which had experienced defeats in the last three home games, two of them in the league. Salzburg want to achieve a mandatory win if they lose another point after those against the two Linz clubs Blau-Weiß and LASK (0: 0 each). 1) and in between the 2-2 away win at Austria Klagenfurt, the gap in the table to the leader Sturm Graz, who are four points ahead, would possibly continue to grow. This is also why Salzburg coach Gerhard Struber spoke “absolutely” of a must-win against Vorarlberg. “It’s now about winning the next game and it’s also about the right performance,” said the 46-year-old. An example is the appearance at the San Siro in Milan, where there was only a narrow first place in the Champions League on Tuesday :2 defeat at Inter. “It’s important to transport this face from Milan over to our stadium,” emphasized Struber. A similar approach and power in the game should end the negative run. “We have to approach the next tasks with the mindset that sets us apart. We want to dominate the game from the start in order to get a win at the end,” said the Salzburg player, setting out the route. Sucic recovered. There will no longer be a big rotation like before the blue-white game. “We learned from this that we won’t try radicalism again. We will rotate, but it will remain manageable. A certain tribe has emerged in the last few weeks, we don’t want to damage the structure and we want to be stable,” said Salzburg’s coach. The recovered Luka Sucic could play a key role. “He is on the verge of becoming a pillar in our game again and can help us powerfully,” said Struber. A comeback from Sekou Koita, which should follow in the Cup round of 16 in Hartberg on Wednesday, is probably not an issue yet. According to Struber, the striker sees “very bright” light at the end of the tunnel. At Dijon Kameri it will take a week or two until he has overcome his muscle injury in his buttocks. Aleksa Terzic and Fernando will be missing for even longer. Flexibility It is unclear which system Salzburg will operate in. Most recently in Milan it was a 4-2-3-1, after previously only playing with a six. “We want to have a certain flexibility so that we can act variably, but we also don’t want to overuse it and see what makes sense from game to game,” said Struber, keeping everything open. Despite Salzburg’s crisis in results, Altach travels to the city of Mozart as a blatant outsider . “If Salzburg loses in the league, they will go into the next round with 100 percent or more,” warned coach Joachim Standfest, who still sensed a chance. “We will get our opportunities, that is always the case in football, and we will not go to Salzburg so that we leave the three points there.” Standfest made it clear that the approach does not include a parked bus in our own penalty area: “We have at the start of the season We saw that our active forward defense also worked against Salzburg.” Unlike the 0-2 home defeat, Altach wants to reward themselves with points this time. However, the current balance from the perspective of Vorarlberg, who are in eighth place with 13 points at halftime of the regular season, looks bleak. Altach only won one of the last 21 Bundesliga duels with the “Bulls”.
