In the all-time Bundesliga table, SV Oberbank Ried is in ninth place with 999 points. Tomorrow, Saturday (5 p.m.), the Innviertel team could break the magical 1000 mark in the away game against second-placed Wolfsberg. At least a draw would be necessary for this. A result that, from Rieder’s point of view, one could probably live with. In order to make up a place in this historical table, the Rieders need “a few” victories. The eighth-placed GAK (1319 points) currently has 320 points, i.e. more than 100 wins, ahead of the SVR. The table (since 1974) is led by Austria Vienna (3116 points), followed by Rapid and Salzburg.
Playmaker Mark Grosse is missing after suffering a concussion in the friendly against Wels. “Fortunately, he is already on the mend and has already visited us at the training center. I think he will be able to complete a first, easy running session at the weekend,” said the SV Ried coach in an interview with OÖNachrichten after training on Wednesday. Striker Kingstone Mutandwa was also missing from this training session, and his decision on whether to play will probably not be made until the day of the match. Central defender Dominik Kirnbauer is still missing due to injury.
After the surprising departure of successful coach Dietmar Kühbauer to LASK, Peter Pacult, an “old acquaintance” of Austrian football, is sitting in the Carinthian coaching bench at reigning cup winners WAC. “Pacult has already said in a press conference that he won’t change much. So I don’t expect any major changes,” said Senft. For him, the WAC is rightly one of the top clubs in Austria. “The team has great individual quality, the squad has been strengthened again in the last two seasons. It will be a difficult game for us, but we are looking forward to it,” says Senft.
