Chelsea vs RB Salzburg score prediction in the 2022-2023 Champions League will be discussed in this article. The Blues -Chelsea’s nickname – will certainly try to get full points after losing the inaugural match of the 2022-2023 Champions League against Dinamo Zagreb.
This match is the second match of the 2022-2023 Champions League. The match, which will be held at Stamford Bridge, will be played on Thursday 15 September 2022.
Previously, Chelsea was embarrassed after losing 1-0 to Dinamo Zagreb last week in the 2022-2023 Champions League, on Tuesday 6 September 2022. In fact, Chelsea was able to dominate throughout the match.
This can be seen from the percentage of matches, Jorginho and colleagues were able to record 69%. While Dinamo Zagreb was only able to carve 31% possession of the ball. Unfortunately, Chelsea were unable to break the deadlock and instead had to pick the ball from the net after Mislav Orisic’s goal in the 13th minute.
Because of the defeat, Chelsea had to settle for the caretaker title in Group E of the 2022-2023 Champions League. In addition, after the defeat, Chelsea immediately sacked their coach Thomas Tuchel and appointed Graham Potter as the new coach.
Of course, with the new coach at the helm, Chelsea have a mission to achieve their first win in the 2022-2023 Champions League by beating RB Salzburg. Meanwhile, RB Salzburg also has the same mission as Chelsea.
Currently, RB Salzburg is in third position after winning a draw in the inaugural match of the 2022-2023 Champions League against AC Milan. Although the match was dominated by AC Milan, RB Salzburg had taken the lead through Noah Okafor in the 28th minute.
However, die Roten Bullen-RB Salzburg’s nickname- failed to maintain the advantage after Alexis Saelemaekers came off as a deadlock for AC Milan in the 40th minute.
Matthias Jaissle’s team certainly will not let Chelsea win even though they appear as a guest team. Plus, they were able to perform perfectly in the last match against Ried with a final score of 3-0 and sit at the top of the 2022-2023 Austrian League standings.
