Maccabi Tel Aviv (Isr) - Salzburg (Aut) Prediction, Picks and Taips

Maccabi Tel Aviv and RB Salzburg face each other for the first time in history. The champion of Israel against the winner of the double in Austria? Who will win this hard-fought duel and run off with the Champions League ticket?

After five years without a title, De Gelen finally became champions of Israel again in 2019. However, it was then lost in the Champions League preliminary round to CFR Cluj, while also lost in the Europa League preliminary round to Suduva Marijampole. This allowed the club to fully focus on the Ligat Ha'al again and this was a success. Undefeated, Maccabi Tel Aviv became champion and with that the team of Georgios Donis again qualified for the continental preliminary round. In the first heat the Latvian Riga FC was defeated, after which Suduva Marijampole waited again. This season Maccabi was too strong for the club from Lithuania. When the Belarusian Dinamo Brest was also defeated, Champions League football suddenly came very close. The only hurdle still standing in the way is the youthful Red Bull Salzburg team. In the competition, the Israelis were unable to gain real confidence. Maccabi Tel Aviv was the favorite against Maccabi Petach Tikva and Bnei Yehuda Tel Aviv, but points were still spilled in the final minutes in both games. The unbeaten status of last season was unmatchable after the opening game. However, it is still the question whether the game can take place at all on Tuesday evening. According to news reports from Israeli media, 13 team members have tested positive with the corona virus. This involves six players and seven staff members. According to UEFA, there must be at least thirteen players with a negative test result.

Red Bull Salzburg had an unprecedented successful season. Both the Austrian Bundesliga and the ÖFB-Cup were won in 2019. Only two games were lost and with very little opposition the club became champion with a 12-point lead. There was also a reasonable performance in the Champions League. With offensive and tidy football, RBS impressed, scoring three goals on Anfield Road against Liverpool. In the end, the team - of Erling Haaland and Takumi Minamino at the time - took third place, but lost to Eintracht Frankfürt in the first knockout round in the Europa League. This year the team will have to do without the star players from the previous European year. To give the season extra shine, Red Bull Salzburg will have to qualify for the highest European final tournament. Because Jesse Marsch's team is only now entering the game, it can immediately secure Champions League football. Die Roten Bullen can draw confidence from the first games of the season. After victories against Wolfsberger and Altach, Red Bull Salzburg is the only team in Austria on six points. Red Bull Salzburg only lost one game of the last 23 games. That was the 1-4 practice match against Ajax.
