The chance to reach the third qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League will be at stake when RB Salzburg play host to Norwegian top-flight side Brann on Wednesday night.
The hosts have lost the last two Austrian Bundesliga campaigns by a margin of only two points. Thomas Letsch’s team finished second to Sturm Graz last year, suffering seven defeats in 32 games, but they are poised to turn things around this season. Die Roten Bullen comfortably won the first leg of Wednesday’s game 4-1, and followed that up with a 4-0 victory over Dietach in the first round of the Austrian Cup.
Meanwhile, Brann are sixteen games into their 2025 Norwegian top-flight campaign. Freyr Alexandersson’s team are just six points off the top of the table, but they have one of the worst away records in the division. The Redshirts have won only three away games in the league this season, and given their poor European away record, overturning a three-goal deficit on Wednesday is highly unlikely.
RB Salzburg vs Brann Betting Tips: Under 3.5 goals
Salzburg scored four goals in each of their last two matches, but both of those matches were away games. The Red Bulls have scored under two goals in each of their last five home games, and as many of those matches ended with under 3.5 goals.
Brann have also performed well away from home recently. The Norwegians conceded only six goals in their last four matches, none of which produced more than three goals.
- Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals
