Highlights KAC vs. Red Bulls | 20.9.24
The starting position
The Red Bulls had imagined their return to the ICE Hockey League stage differently after last Tuesday's strong CHL performance against Sparta Prague. “We weren't cool-headed enough in front of goal,” said Niki Kraus, analyzing yesterday's 5-1 defeat in Asiago. There were enough chances, and that's exactly what the Red Bulls want and need to do better when they face the KAC on Sunday.
For Klagenfurt, it will be their first game in the domestic league since their last CHL regular season game last Wednesday against the ZSC Lions (1:5). The Carinthians had no game yesterday and can therefore optimally prepare for Sunday's game in Salzburg.
Statistically almost in step
After the first 8 (Red Bulls) and 9 (KAC) rounds played, the two long-time rivals are in 4th and 6th place in the table, separated by just one point. 5 wins and 3 defeats for the Red Bulls compared to 5 wins and four defeats for Klagenfurt. Goal difference: Red Bulls 32:27 | KAC 30:28. KAC won the first match-up at the start of the season in Klagenfurt 4:3 in a shootout.
It was a similar story with the top scorers. Klagenfurt's Mathias From and Salzburg's Troy Bourke are ranked 4th and 5th in the league standings with 12 points each. The Dane in the service of the KAC has 8 goals and 4 assists, Salzburg's 'Cowboy' scored 7 times and provided 5 assists.
Statement Niki Kraus
“We have to learn from yesterday's game, Asiago outplayed us brutally. We expect a good KAC with a lot of forecheck and a lot of pressure. But we know how to play against Klagenfurt and if we play our game, we can win again.”
