The SK BMD Forward remains the weakest away team in the 2nd soccer league and is still without a win abroad. The Steyrers were caught cold on the way to the 0:4 (0:2) defeat in the traditional duel with promoted Vienna. After 19 minutes, Stephan Auer (9th) and Nils Zatl (19th) gave Döbling a 2-0 lead, Daniel Owusu (63rd) and Zatl again (93rd) made everything clear after a change of sides.
FC Blau-Weiß Linz wants to beat FC Liefering in today’s home game (2 p.m.) with the opponent’s weapons. The Salzburg and the Royal Blues share a similar style of play: intense pressing. A look at the Linz squad shows just how much Salzburg DNA there is in blue and white: Eight kickers come from the neighboring federal state – six of them also had a past in the Bulls’ offspring. No coincidence, as sporting director Tino Wawra says: “They have few adjustment problems with our system because they learned it from the ground up.” A style of play that has also established itself in Linz in recent years. “Ronny Brunmayr started it with us back then, he learned a lot from Oliver Glasner, and he got this DNA in Salzburg.”
Even if the Young Bulls are currently only in twelfth place, the people of Linz have been warned. “We last saw them in the Youth League against Chelsea (5-1, note), they have the right quality,” says Wawra. Blue and white coach Gerald Scheiblehner sees it similarly: “The young team has made a huge leap recently, it’s getting intense.” Captain Michael Brandner is questionable, Christoph Schösswendter, Lukas Rath and Anteo Fetahu are out.
