Red Bull Salzburg vs SK Brann Predictions

• Red Bull Salzburg were deserving of their 4-1 win in Norway last week, outshooting Brann 22 to eight with 10 on target to two.
• Brann have lost two and drawn one of their last three away matches
• Edmund Baidoo scored four goals in two starts and 16 substitute appearances last season.

Red Bull are a level above Brann 

Brann look pretty powerless to stop Red Bull Salzburg waltzing into the third round of Champions League qualifying when they travel to Austria on Wednesday, already 4-1 down from the first leg.

The Norwegian side, who finished three points behind Bodo/Glimt in last year’s title race, were exposed by a high-quality attacking display from the Red Bulls at their own ground last week.

Thomas Letsch’s side fully deserved their margin of victory given the stats from the game, which saw them produce an expected goals of almost three from 22 shots, 10 of which were on target, while Brann grabbed their solitary effort from a total xG of 0.38.

Baidoo can bag in Salzburg

Letsch rotated his side slightly for their 4-0 weekend cup win and can bring in more fresh legs if he likes from a much deeper squad than Brann have available.

Back the home side to find the net multiple times again in this clash with livewire attacker Edmund Baidoo a good option to get on the scoresheet if he starts. The Ghanaian averages just less than one goal and around two shots on target per 90 minutes in Austria.
