Austria Bundesliga betting

There are only 12 teams in the Austrian Bundesliga. In the last few seasons, Austrian football has progressed significantly. In the UEFA coefficient, Austria is now among the top 10 European leagues.

The competition is divided into two parts: at the end of the first phase, which finishes in December, the top six form a group that competes for the title, while the bottom six are placed in the relegation group.

Being part of the top six is an almost guaranteed ticket to finish in European competition the following season since the first two will go to the Champions League — a competition in which the champion has a guaranteed place. The Austrian Cup winners are placed in the Europa League sponsored by bwin.

The team that finishes in fourth place, and the winner of the Europa Conference League play-offs get places in the UEFA Europa Conference League. Only the last of the Bundesliga is relegated to the 2. Austrian Liga.

Which team dominates the Austrian league?

RB Salzburg has been the dominant team in Austrian football ever since the club was taken over by the owners of the energy drink, Red Bull. They have finished as champions every season since 2014.

Red Bull's philosophy is simple: attack, press your opponent, and above all, provide emotion, which is also increased tenfold when making an online sports bet. The Red Bull squad is very young, with almost the entire team under 21 years, and serves as an incubator for RB Leipzig, the German championship team.

Betting on the championship in 2021/22

Salzburg is undefeated at the top of the league with the best attack and defence in terms of goals. The seven-time champions have a lead of well over ten points with a few games left in the first half of the season.

The points obtained during the regular season are divided by two (and rounded down) before the second phase starts.

Second for several seasons, Rapid is experiencing a more difficult season this year. Apart from Salzburg, only Sturm Graz has a positive goal difference this season.

9 out of 12 teams have a negative or neutral goal difference, which is why there are a lot of draws in the league this season.

Recommended betting on the championship

The most frequent score in the Austrian Bundesliga this season is 1-1. It has happened in 20% of the matches. So a recommended bet is to bet on both teams scoring.

There are many more goals in the second half of the season in the Austrian Bundesliga. The last quarter of an hour is very lively, with 27% of the goals scored in the last fifteen minutes of the game.
