Champions League, Wednesday, 06.11.2024 at 21:00
Difficult times for all those who hold on to the Salzburg Bulls! Austria’s actually best club is stumbling in all competitions, will the fourth matchday bring improvement? I am quite skeptical about my Feyenoord Rotterdam Red Bull Salzburg betting tip.
I advocate an offensive bet here – even though the Austrians haven’t even scored a goal of their own yet. But beware, Feyenoord prefer to score. There’s no question that the roles of favorite and underdog seem clear at first glance here:
Red Bull are not only struggling in Europe, but also in the league. The home side have no say in the matter, as they are currently going from victory to victory. There is no question who is ahead on paper.
The Feyenoord Rotterdam RB Salzburg odds are of course based on the results of both teams and can therefore only come to the conclusion that the winner will be playing at home. The average odds are 1.55 to 5.60.
In my betting tip, I will now present you with everything you need to know about this match and try to underline why I am taking an offensive approach. Three goals? That should be absolutely realistic with these two teams!
The bookmaker forecast
Feyenoord go into this game with six points and also have successful domestic statistics. For our bookmakers, this implies a clear role as favorites, with the odds for a win against RB averaging 1.55.
There is naturally a great deal of uncertainty among the guests from Salzburg, which applies to both offense and defense. Should they pull off a surprise in Rotterdam, the bookies would reward this with odds of 5.60.
A draw would not be a revelation for either club, and it is worth noting that Salzburg have lost all three of their games by at least two goals. If they score a point on Wednesday, you could place the “Tip X” at odds of 4.40.
KI prediction Feyenoord Rotterdam – Red Bull Salzburg: ChatGPT
How does ChatGPT deal with the fact that RB Salzburg is struggling and not even scoring goals anymore? Of course, the artificial intelligence also incorporates these facts into its betting suggestions, which it presented to me with different levels of risk as usual.
A win for the home side with a 0:2 handicap is the betting idea in the high risk range. Daring, but not impossible! Since Salzburg always loses by a wide margin and Rotterdam scored six goals against Girona and Benfica, RB could also go down to defeat
In addition, the AI comes to the conclusion that the home side will lead at half-time. This has already been the case twice, while RB have twice gone into the dressing room trailing. So I can definitely get a lot out of this bet.
The low risk is reached if both teams score a goal. Salzburg are still completely goalless, but: Feyenoord have conceded seven goals in the CL! That’s not a sure thing, so the “both teams score” could well be correct.
Analysis: Feyenoord Rotterdam – Red Bull Salzburg
Not an easy situation for Red Bull Salzburg! After ten championship titles in a row, they had to bow to Sturm Graz a few months ago, and second place was an absolute disappointment.
2024/25 is now supposed to be the season in which the Austrian top club strikes back mercilessly. Five wins after ten match days, two defeats, including a 0:5 against Graz, and just two three-pointers from the last seven matches?
No, this was certainly not how they had imagined the start to the new season! Three of them were 0-0 draws and the otherwise strong offense hardly came into its own. A perfect segue to the top flight, where they have been even less successful.
0:3 against Sparta Prague, 0:4 against Brest and 0:2 against Dinamo Zagreb? How is this supposed to continue once the really tough ones come! With all due respect, Sparta, Brest and Zagreb really aren’t Champions League contenders
Odds Analysis
Salzburg conceded six of their nine goals after the break. This fact irrevocably leads me to bet that more will happen after the break. If this is the case, you can get odds of 1.87 at Bwin.
If Feyenoord are leading at the break, then it will probably be close. Also because the Bulls usually only break into the game in the second 45 minutes. I could therefore well imagine a 1:0 at half-time, with the odds for this jumping to 3.60.
If you want to place a result bet directly, you could do well with a 3:1, which implies the strengths and weaknesses of both clubs equally. The corresponding odds bring you to a value of 12.0.
Feyenoord Rotterdam – Red Bull Salzburg: The Bulls in free fall?
Paris St. Germain, Real Madrid and Atletico are still to come, and the fans are already fearing the worst. However, it’s not as if the team has no chance or will go down completely.
So far, they have been completely unlucky, with a whopping 37 shots leading to nothing. The expected goals value is 3.37, no other team is underperforming in such a dramatic way!
The Bulls have now lost their last four games in the CL, seven defeats, one draw and a goal difference of 2:17 – the past encounters really speak volumes.
Feyenoord want to keep on storming
For the first ever clash with Feyenoord Rotterdam, the club will be looking to improve their effectiveness above all else, otherwise their CL exit in the group stage will soon be sealed.
The Dutch side, on the other hand, will go into the game under much less pressure. This is not to be taken for granted, as they were beaten 4-0 by Bayer Leverkusen on the first matchday.
The improvement came quickly. First there was a 3:2 in Girona, then a 3:1 at Benfica Lisbon. After two such successful, attacking away games, the club will be keen to show their best side at home too.
The right personnel is available in any case. Antoni Milambo has already scored three goals in the current competition, while Igor Paixao has already set up three goals. But this could also be a problem.
Milambo has been suffering from an injury for a few days, and two other strikers, Ayase Ueda and Santiago Gimenez, have also been affected. In addition, right-back Jordan Lotomba may also be unavailable
There can be no complaints about a lack of goals here. That also applies to the domestic Eredivisie, where Rotterdam got off to a very bumpy start with just two wins from the first seven rounds.
In the meantime, however, the team has found its rhythm, winning the last four games with twelve goals. Definitely a good mood, and therefore the opposite of what is prevalent at Salzburg.
My Feyenoord Rotterdam – Red Bull Salzburg tip:
In Salzburg, they are looking a little perplexed about the season so far. Things are not even going well in the Bundesliga, but the crisis in the top flight is almost worse. How can it be that newcomers Brest, Sparta Prague and Dinamo Zagreb have all won clearly?
The team lacks effectiveness, chances were certainly there. It’s a good thing that opponents Feyenoord have never conceded a goal in the CL. On the other hand, it’s stupid that the Dutch side have scored six times in the last two games alone.
For me, this duel, which is taking place for the first time ever, sounds like a very interesting, entertaining affair. And that’s exactly why I’ve decided to take an offensive approach and make my predictions:
The 2.5 goals will be cracked!
