In Salzburg’s tight schedule with the highlights of the Champions League, the masters must dose their strengths. Three days after the draw against Lok Moscow and three days before the away game at Atlético de Madrid, the “Red Bulls” will make a guest appearance in Vienna on Saturday (live and exclusively on Sky Sport Austria 2 from 4:00 pm – stream the game with Sky X). The defending champion plans three points against a “much improved” Austria, according to Jesse Marsch. Frequent players should be saved for Madrid.
“The important thing is the dosage in the games or in the training units. Then it will be the case that we rotate a bit against Austria and new players will be used, ”said Marsch before the game in the fifth round. The American is aiming for a fifth Bundesliga victory before the trip to the Spanish capital. Salzburg have scored 17 goals in four previous games. Austria is currently in fourth place.
The violets were already happy before the game. They can host 3,000 spectators in the arena, organize a “normal game day” in Corona times, as a spokesperson noted. Originally, the club had assumed a maximum of 1,500 visitors and a ban on the catering area. Then there would not have been a VIP area either. The government ordinance published Thursday night doesn’t take effect until midnight Sunday. In Austria, all the levers went into action immediately. “The cell phone was shortly before the explosion at around 10pm,” head coach Peter Stöger reported.
In sporting terms, Austria wants to stumble the favorite. For that, according to Stöger, everything has to fit with violets. Phases in which your computer has not yet presented itself as stable should be avoided. “We have to push each and every one of us to the limit for more than 90 minutes,” said the Austria coach. “We have the ability to carry something with us,” Stöger knew. The opponent also has to play along. “Salzburg must not have the best day, we need maximum performance.”

Its counterpart will rotate. It is unlikely that Zlatko Junuzovic, Andreas Ulmer or Patson Daka will start playing against Atlético on Saturday. “We have a large squad and we will use as many players as possible. Plus, we’re used to that from the last few years, ”Marsch said. Only midfielder Antoine Bernede is injured.
Stöger also did not expect a decrease in the quality of the teacher. He is used to “living with that rhythm.” The former Dortmund manager said the psychological component was more important than the physical. In recent seasons, Austria failed to capitalize on the perhaps distracted Salzburgers. For six league games, the Viennese have been waiting for a win against the Mozartstadters. Five of them were lost, the last 2-2 in Vienna in February. Marsch felt that Austria had “vastly improved” under Stöger and spoke politely of a “great challenge”.
The disabled list in Austria has not been reduced recently. Vesel Demaku suffered a shoulder dislocation in the Cup, and is threatened with an operation with a hiatus of several months. Dominik Fitz and Alon Turgeman should start team training in the coming weeks. Christoph Schösswendter, who signed up on Monday, is not yet an option. On Friday he formed the Young Violets central defense in the 2nd division with long-injured Christian Schoissengeyr to win match practice.
