The fixture list for the second division has also been published. From Salzburg's point of view, there is only one representative in the new season: Red Bull Salzburg's farm team FC Liefering. The young bulls start the season with a home game.

The fixture list for the Austrian second division has been published. Salzburg's only representative - FC Liefering - will host Vienna in the first round. As in the top division, matches will be played between August 2 and 4. Austria Lustenau, relegated from the Bundesliga with goalkeeper Domenik Schierl, will play at home against Lafnitz, who recently signed goalkeeper Kilian Schröcker from FC Pinzgau.

Schwarz-Weiß Bregenz (with Marco Rottensteiner) will open their campaign against the second team of Sturm Graz. Admira newcomer Lukas Brückler will face Kapfenberg in Südstadt.

In the second round, the young bulls with coach Daniel Beichler will visit Lafnitz. As usual, the match dates will be scheduled by the clubs in flexible time slots in the coming days.

Flexible match times
Since the introduction of the 16-team league, the clubs have been able to choose their own kick-off times within the given framework. To this end, flexible time slots from Friday evening to Sunday afternoon have been created to give clubs the best possible leeway and, in conjunction with a kilometer rule, also allow them to play as purely amateur teams.

Depending on the travel distance for the visiting team and a possible live broadcast, each home club sets its match dates every six months. The dates for the fall round will be scheduled in the coming week.
