The AFC Vienna Vikings (3-1), fresh off a commanding defensive start to the Austrian Football League season, host the struggling Salzburg Ducks (0-4) at the Ravelin Football Center on Saturday May 3.

Vikings’ Defensive Wall vs. Ducks’ Near-Breakthrough
Vienna’s defense has allowed a league-low 14 points through four games, while their offense has posted 44 points. However, Salzburg arrives with momentum after nearly upsetting the Prague Black Panthers last week, leading until the final seconds. The Ducks’ resilience could test the Vikings, who edged them 16-7 in their first meeting.

Coach Sobotka’s Focus: “Viking Football”
Head coach Benjamin Sobotka emphasized consistency: “We need sharper offense and the same defensive focus. The Ducks are dangerous, and upsets like Prague’s loss to Raiders prove nothing’s guaranteed. Play our brand for four quarters, and we’ll thrive.”

Salzburg, desperate for their first win, must crack Vienna’s defense to avoid an 0-5 slump. Will the Vikings’ discipline prevail, or can the Ducks finally soar? Tune in for a pivotal AFL battle.
