Will SV Guntamatic Ried finally get rid of the Red Lantern on Friday? With a win in Tyrol (7.30pm, Sky), Innviertler can outpace rival Altach for at least one day – exactly two months after a full sense of accomplishment in the Bundesliga.
“The team is on the move,” promised coach Maximilian Senft. Although it was only enough for four consecutive draws, self-confidence increased with better performances – most recently in the two matches against Lustenau (4:4, 2:2). “We fought twice from behind in Lustenau. We now know we can score goals and be dangerous from set-pieces.”
In their last encounter with Tyrol at home a month earlier, it was Ten Blavotik’s headed goal that scored a point in a 1–1 draw. He should be a little away from home – then the pressure will build on Altach, who visits Wolfsburg on Saturday. Sneft: “We’re on our way to victory-hungry Tyrol.”
Blau-Weiss Linz are also on the verge of a place in the Bundesliga tomorrow: in their second-tier duel with St. Polten they almost need a win (8.30pm, ORF Sport+), with a four-lap deficit currently one point before the end.
When LASK lost the title
Seven years ago, St. Polten felt the nerves in the promotion decider at home – in a 3-2 win over LASK. The then LASK defender Christian Ramsebner caused the penalty kick to make it 0: 1, tomorrow he will lead St. Polten onto the field as captain.
