Champions League, 17:45 @ 14.10.2026

Liverpool travel to Linz as clear favourites after opening their Champions League campaign with a 2-1 win over Atlético Madrid. LASK lost their first league-phase match against AEK Athens and arrive after a difficult domestic run, although their remarkable 5-1 home victory over Celtic in qualifying shows they cannot be dismissed at the Raiffeisen Arena. Liverpool have the stronger squad and European form, but injuries in attack make the size of any away victory less certain.

Key betting LASK vs Liverpool factors:

  • LASK’s defensive problems: Nine goals conceded across their last five competitive matches and no clean sheets.
  • Home threat: LASK overturned a three-goal deficit against Celtic with a 5-1 victory in Linz during qualifying.
  • Liverpool injuries: Alexander Isak, Cody Gakpo and Dominik Szoboszlai have all had fitness concerns.
  • Recent form: Liverpool have three wins from their last five competitive matches, compared with one for LASK.
  • Short turnaround: Both clubs played on Sunday, leaving only three days of recovery.
  • Market: Liverpool deserve to be strong favourites, but the short price makes a handicap considerably less secure than the straight away win.
  • Previous meetings: Liverpool won both 2023/24 Europa League encounters, scoring seven goals across the two matches.

Professional Tipster Conclusion

Liverpool have the superior squad, greater experience at this level and face a LASK defence that has been conceding too regularly. Even with potential attacking absences, the Reds should create enough chances to justify their position as clear favourites.

My preferred angle is Liverpool to win. I would be more cautious with a large handicap, however, because LASK have already shown how dangerous they can be at home and Liverpool’s attacking availability remains uncertain. The away win is therefore considerably stronger than assuming a comfortable multi-goal victory.

Liverpool to Win

Odds 1/4

I'm backing Liverpool to get the job done. Sunday's defeat to City looks worse on paper because of the red card, while LASK have conceded seven times in their last three league games.

Liverpool don't need to be spectacular to win this. A patient, controlled performance should be enough. It's a short price, though, and the injury situation stops me from calling it a certainty.

Liverpool -1.5 Handicap

Odds 11/20

I'm going a step further and backing Liverpool to win by at least two goals.

LASK's defence has been far too generous lately. If Liverpool strike first, the hosts may have to push forward, leaving the sort of space Iraola's side can exploit.
