Brann faces Salzburg tonight. This is the first leg of the UEFA Champions League qualifiers. Both teams are in competitive mode because Bran plays in the Norwegian championship, and Salzburg participated in the FIFA Club World Cup.
Brann News
Some four days ago, Bran lost to KFUM in the domestic championship. It was 2-0 for the home team, and this was the third meeting in the past 5 in which Brann couldn’t win. All those events were on the road.
Though when playing in front of their own fans, things are different. Brann has just one loss in the past 20 games. Right now, this unit has four triumphs in a row at home, scoring 12 goals combined. We saw over 2.5 goals in 10 of the previous 12 meetings this unit had at Brann Studio.
Salzburg News
After finishing the FIFA Club World Cup, Salzburg’s players had some time to rest before getting on with some friendly matches. Since a 0-3 loss to Real Madrid, which ended the Bulls’ adventure in the United States, this team had two friendly events.
The first was against Qarabad, and Thomas Letsch’s boys won it 2-1. Afterward, Salzburg met Derby County, losing that one 1-2. This team has fragile defense, allowing at least a goal in all but one of the previous five games.
Brann vs. Salzburg Head to Head
These two teams have never met in either official or friendly game.
Brann vs. Salzburg Betting Predictions
We saw that Brann performs strongly at home, and that they play much more open and courageously in front of their fans. Therefore, the results are far better than those on the road. Salzburg’s playstyle is also offensive-minded, with the Bulls having a solid number of issues in the back. Just to make it clear, Brann isn’t strong in the back as well. That’s why our pick here is both teams to score and over 2.5 goals.
