Will SV Guntamatic Ried finally get rid of the red lantern on Friday? With a win in Tyrol (7.30 p.m., Sky), the Innviertler can overtake their competitor Altach for at least one day – exactly two months after the last full sense of achievement in the Bundesliga.
“The team is in full swing”, coach Maximilian Senft promised. Although it was only enough for four draws in a row, self-confidence increased with the better performances – most recently in the two spectacles against Lustenau (4: 4, 2: 2). “We fought back twice in Lustenau after falling behind. We know now that we can score goals and be dangerous from set pieces.”
In the most recent duel with Tirol at home a month ago, it was a headed goal by Tin Plavotic that scored a point in the 1-1 draw. It should be a bit more away from home – then the pressure will increase on Altach, who will be visiting Wolfsberg on Saturday. Mustard: “Hungry for victory, we drive to Tyrol.”
Blau-Weiss Linz is also about to get a place in the Bundesliga tomorrow: In the top two-division duel with St. Pölten, they almost need a win (8.30 p.m., ORF Sport+), with a current one-point deficit four laps before the end.
When LASK lost the title
Seven years ago, St. Pölten got nervous in the decider for promotion at home – in a 3-2 win over LASK. The then LASK defender Christian Ramsebner caused the penalty to make it 0: 1, tomorrow he will lead St. Pölten onto the field as captain.
