Ready for third test with Tirol this season

Momentum from before international break behind us

The international break is over, all our lads are back healthy, and we're straight back at home looking for points. On Matchday 14 of the ADMIRAL Bundesliga, we have an encounter at our Red Bull Arena, where we'll host WSG Tirol on Sunday at 14:30 CET.

This is already the third encounter with Philipp Semlic's team in the past few months. In the cup round of 16, WSG pushed us to the limit, taking us to extra time before we finally prevailed 3-1. Our victory in the first half of the regular season at Tivoli (2-1) marked the beginning of our current six-match unbeaten run (four wins and two draws).

As an interesting side note: our Red Bulls (23 years, 335 days) and WSG Tirol (24 years, 64 days) are the two teams with the youngest average starting XIs in this season's ADMIRAL Bundesliga.

The cup match against Tirol doesn't feel that long ago, nor was the league match in Innsbruck. WSG surprised us a bit in the cup, and in the league, it was a close call towards the end, and we had to sweat it out a little. We can definitely analyse those two encounters. We're at home, and our focus is sharpened after these narrow victories. We want to prevail again this time and start the final stretch of the year with a win.

Thomas Letsch

I'm very satisfied and happy with how the season has gone so far. If you had asked me beforehand, I wouldn't have expected this. I had anticipated playing in one or two cup matches. The fact that so many league games and the Europa League match came on top of that was unexpected. Our approach to Sunday's league match will essentially be the same as in recent games, regardless of the opponent. After the international break, it's always a bit of a fresh start, which is why it's extremely important that we get off to a good start and secure three points.
