RB Salzburg in crisis: Are they missing points against Go Ahead Eagles?
November 16, 2025 is a sad day for Red Bull Salzburg fans. After three games in the Europa League, coach Matthias Jaissle's team is at the bottom of their group with zero points. In their previous games against Porto (0:1), Lyon (0:2) and Ferencvaros (2:3), Salzburg was able to create chances again and again, but did not have the luck necessary to collect points. A circumstance that is a thorn in the side of the fans and raises the questions: What is going wrong in Salzburg?
In the last match, Salzburg suffered a narrow defeat against Ferencvaros, although they were able to put the opponent under pressure with their offensive efforts. But despite all efforts, the sausage this season remains with negative results. Betting base reports that Salzburg has currently conceded the third most expected goals (7.22 xGA) in the Europa League. A clear indication that not everything is going well on defense.
The location of the Go Ahead Eagles
On the other side is the surprise team Go Ahead Eagles, who are the first Dutch team to take part in one of the three European competitions this season. Under new coach Melvin Boel, who replaced Paul Simonis, the team is showing emerging form. After three games in the Europa League they were able to collect six points, which is considered quite encouraging, especially after two wins in a row. The BBC reports, that with 5.70 goals scored, the Dutch are above their expectations, which were only 3.25 xG. This shows a real rush of efficiency from the Eagles that puts them in a solid position in the group.
The record against Salzburg could also give reason for hope for the Go Ahead Eagles. After all, Salzburg has only lost one of eleven games against Dutch teams since 1994. But the current statistics suggest that both teams practice quick ball changes, which could make the upcoming duel an exciting competition.
