FC Red Bull Salzburg
- Salzburg are a high energy team who like to overwhelm opponents in the attacking third, playing a fast-paced, high-pressing style of soccer which has become a Red Bull trademark since Thomas Letsch took over as manager in December 2024.
- Salzburg have been inconsistent at home this season and have struggled to perform on home turf in the Europa League, losing their only home game so far and failing to score, averaging 0.00 goals for and 1.00 against.
- Salzburg have won 2, drawn 1, and lost 2 of their last 5 games in all competitions. The FC Red Bull Salzburg vs Ferencvarosi TC betting tips for their current form suggest an unpredictable outcome.
Ferencvarosi TC
- Since Ferencvaros’ Robbie Keane took charge in January 2025, he has injected a pragmatic, flexible approach into the club which has made them difficult to play against, especially from set pieces.
- Ferencvaros are unbeaten in their last 5 matches in all competitions, winning 2 and drawing 3, and are on a 2-game drawing streak.
- Ferencvaros have won their only away game in the Europa League so far, keeping a shutout in the process, and have shown greater strength away from home in general, winning 2 and drawing 1 of their last 3.
Head-to-Head
FC Red Bull Salzburg and Ferencvarosi TC last met 2 years ago in a friendly match at Salzburg’s home stadium in which Salzburg edged out the visitors 2-1 .

Key Players

- Barnabas Varga has been in fine form for the away side recently, netting 4 of Ferencvaros' last 8 goals in five games, and has been a key player in their recent Europa League run.
Betting Insights
- Salzburg are slight favorites at 1.95 to beat Ferencvaros on Thursday, whilst Ferencvaros and the draw are both at 3.65. This FC Red Bull Salzburg vs Ferencvarosi TC betting tips analysis reflects the bookmakers' view of a tight contest.
- With both sides showing signs of weakness defensively, yet having attacking threats such as Kerim Alajbegovic for Salzburg and Barnabas Varga for Ferencvaros - Kerim has scored 2 of Salzburg’s last 6 goals and Varga has netted 4 of Ferencvarros’ last 8 goals in five games - the Over 2.5 Goals market at 1.7 appears attractive.
Prediction
- This matchup between two very different styles of play could be a chess match in itself, as Salzburg’s high press and vertical play will clash against the defensive rigidity and set-piece threat of Ferencvaros.
- Salzburg are the favorites but have an inconsistent home record, and Ferencvaros will be tough to break down and will pose a threat on set plays, so the home team’s intensity will be tested on Thursday night.
