RB Salzburg v Brann Bet Builder Quick Tips & Preview
Steve Wyss
Specialist in Scandinavian & European soccer. I have been in the betting game for nearly 20 years now with a summer focus on the Norwegian & Swedish leagues. With an in-depth knowledge of the region & teams I have been involved in a specialist podcast & more for close to a decade. My favourite types of bets are attacking the goal lines and identifying the tactics & style of each team & manager who can contribute positively. Outside of betting I was once a Sunday League goalkeeper myself. But my boots are now retired and instead prefer to hit up the cricket pitch and golf course in my spare time.

RB Salzburg comfortably won the first leg 4-1
The Austrian side dominated the match with 22 shots to 8 and an xG of 2.32
Brann only have the 9th best away record in the Eliteserien this season
Brann took an early lead, but RB Salzburg fired back with a brilliant 2nd half to comfortably win the 1st leg 4-1. The tie looks over, and there was night and day between the two teams. RB Salzburg are priced at 1.40 to beat the Norwegian side again
⚪ Strong Summer for RB Salzburg
RB Salzburg won the first leg 4-1, so they are in a comfortable position. The Austrian League season has not yet started, but at the weekend, they had domestic cup success by beating Dietach 4-0.
All of RB Salzburg’s Club World Cup games had an xG of over 2, and every game contained at least nine corners. Their fixtures tended to be quite open, even the 0-0 vs Al Hilal, in which a lot of chances were wasted.
🔴 Brann Suffered in the First Leg
Brann lost the first leg 1-4 and are seemingly facing a herculean task to turn around the deficit. They didn’t have a league fixture at the weekend, so they have had a full week to prepare for the second leg. Brann only have the 9th best away record in the Eliteserien with three wins, one draw, and three defeats.
Brann have been a constant goal threat, averaging 1.78 xG per game in the Eliteserien this season. They have the second-best average xGA per match domestically, but have only kept three clean sheets. Brann recently sold key striker Aune Heggebo to West Ham for around £5m.
📊 RB Salzburg v Brann H2H
The only previous competitive meeting was last week when RB Salzburg comfortably won 4-1 despite trailing 0-1 for nearly an hour. They won the xG battle 2.32 to 0.41 and outshot Brann 22 to eight with ten shots on target. RB Salzburg also won the corner count seven to one in that contest.
