For two or three years it has been the ultimate match in the Austrian Bundesliga: Sturm Graz against Red Bull Salzburg, with the Styrians clearly replacing Rapid Vienna in the top game ranking. However, the championship battle between the two top teams in the Alpine state has never been as close as this year – the subscription champions from the city of Mozart in Graz are only two points ahead, so there is no cushion.
On Easter Sunday, March 31st, 5 p.m., there will be the first direct duel of the championship round. If the guests get a three-pointer, this would be a preliminary decision for the national title. If coach Christian Ilzer’s team wins, they would overtake Salzburg and guarantee an extremely exciting battle at the top. The two league duels in the regular season each ended in a draw – 2:2 away, 1:1 at home, making Sturm the only team this season that Andi Ulmer & Co. have not yet been able to win against this year.
By the way: On Thursday, April 4th, at 8:45 p.m., the two top teams will meet again: there must be a winner by the ÖFB Cup semi-final in Salzburg at the latest. Just three more days later, the “Red Bulls” welcome Rapid Vienna in the Bundesliga – a very interesting week of football for all fans.
FC Liefering (12th) welcomes the strong second-placed FAC Wien in the Red Bull Arena on Sunday, March 31st at 12.30 p.m. The Young Bulls lost the first leg in the 2nd league 1:3. The 21-year-old offensive player Daniel Owusu from Ghana is no longer there. He came to Salzburg from his homeland at the beginning of 2021. As a cooperation or loan player, he played for FC Liefering (11 games), SV Horn (10), Vienna (9) and SKU Amstetten (8). He played five times for Mozartstadt in the UEFA Youth League.
