⭐ Editor's Pick
Salzburg have the edge in quality and experience, but away from home the team are inconsistent - the draw with Wolfsberg confirmed that. Tyrol are traditionally dangerous at home, and in the league the team have scored in 21 of their last 22 matches. Given that the visitors may make changes to their squad ahead of the decisive stage of the Europa League qualifying, the hosts are capable of scoring. But Tyrol's defence remains a problem - the team concede regularly. We go with both teams to score (yes). Predicted score - 1:2.
