FC Red Bull Salzburg host Altach on Saturday

Salzburg welcome Altach to Red Bull Arena for an Austrian Bundesliga matchday 10 clash on Saturday (October 19th). The home side will be hoping to bounce back from the harrowing 5-0 defeat they suffered away to Sturm Graz a fortnight ago.

Malick Yalcouye broke the deadlock for the Blacks in the 15th minute while Emanuel Aiwu completed the rout in the 76th minute after Mika Biereth's hat-trick.

Altach, meanwhile, suffered a 1-0 defeat at home to Rapid Vienna. Dion Beljo's 36th-minute strike proved to be the difference between the two sides.

The loss left them in 11th spot in the table, having garnered eight points from nine games. Salzburg are fifth on 13 points.

Salzburg vs Altach Prediction

Salzburg suffered a harrowing loss before the international break, further dampening their title hopes. Die Roten Bullen had expectations of pushing Graz all the way to wrest the title from them. However, the manner of their defeat highlighted their deficiencies this season and left them six points off the summit, albeit with two games in hand.

Altach won two of their first three league games of the campaign but are winless in six games since then, losing four matches in this sequence. They are winless in the last eight head-to-head games and are heavy underdogs here.

Salzburg have lost their last two games in the league and Champions League, conceding nine goals without scoring any. However, they are expected to bounce back. We are backing the home side to claim a comfortable win and clean sheet.

Prediction: Salzburg 3-0 Altach
