It's now or never! Big home clash vs Sturm Graz
With three games to go, there is everything still to play for, and it couldn't be more exciting. This Sunday 3 May our next big match awaits: At 17:00 CEST, we host the reigning champions and current second-place team, SK Sturm Graz, at the Red Bull Arena.
The situation is clear: in recent weeks, our lads have reduced the gap to the league leaders from five to two points – despite the recent frustrating defeat against Rapid. In the title race, we still control our own destiny, but a win against Sturm Graz is now absolutely essential.
In our recent encounters, Sturm Graz have pushed us to our limits. The last two matches ended 1-1 – making a victory against SK Sturm long overdue. Their last win dates back to March 2025. One name that always stands out in matches against Sturm Graz is Yorbe Vertessen. The 25-year-old has already scored twice against them this season and has scored more goals against them than against any other team. Although Fabio Ingolitsch's side arrive in Salzburg with a ten-match unbeaten run, Kiteishvili and his teammates have drawn their last four matches.
A thrilling clash is guaranteed, and our Red Bulls will do everything in their power to make the Red Bull Arena the decisive stage in the title race – with the support of our fans, of course.

The situation before this top-of-the-table clash is relatively clear, as we all know. We've managed to reduce the gap to the league leaders from five points to two during the packed week of fixtures.
