Second-placed Salzburg travel to third-placed Lask Linz
With both clubs making positive starts to the campaign, third meets second in an early-season Austrian Bundesliga clash.
Lask Linz sit third on 19 points after nine games, having made a good start to the campaign. Recent league results have been mixed, however, with two wins, one draw, and two defeats in their last five outings. They suffered a 2-0 home loss against Rapid Vienna last time out, following a wild 3-3 draw at TSV Hartberg.
Red Bull Salzburg have also started strongly, sitting second on 21 points after nine rounds. They carry strong momentum into Linz, remaining unbeaten across their last five matches with three wins and two draws. Salzburg arrive on the back of a convincing 3-0 home victory over SCR Altach, which followed a scoreless draw at Grazer AK.
