What Salzburg’s first halves look like

Early scoring in Salzburg’s matches is overwhelmingly their own: the net bulges at the right end before the break in 56.3% of matches and at the wrong one in 35.6%, 20.7pp apart. Travel costs Salzburg at the back: 40.0% of their away matches bring an early goal against, next to 31.3% of home ones.

First halves here rarely stop at one: where Salzburg’s matches produce an early goal, a second follows 55% of the time, against 49% across the division. Two goals before the break is no rarity in this fixture: 39.4% of Salzburg’s matches get there, where the division manages 35.7%.

Counted in goals rather than matches, Salzburg put 0.87 past the opposition before the break each game and ship 0.43. Where Salzburg play barely moves when they score: 55.0% of home matches bring a first-half goal of theirs, 57.5% of away ones.

Every figure on this page rests on 160 completed Salzburg matches over 5 seasons (2021 to 2026). That is enough to separate a clear tendency from noise, and not enough to split it much further by venue or opponent.

How to read these numbers

  • These are historical rates over pooled seasons, not a forecast. A club that has changed manager, division or squad reads as the average of every version of itself on record.
  • The opponent matters as much as the club. A high-scoring side against a defense that rarely concedes early is a different fixture from the same side against one that does.
