The lead in the Austria Bundesliga after 11 game days cannot be any closer. Werder Bremen's up-coming Europa League opponents Austria Vienna won their showdown with reigning champions RB Salzburg 1-0. And the only thing keeping Salzburg ahead of Austria atop the Bundesliga is Salzburg's better goal difference. There was bad news for the Viennese as goalkeeper Szabolcs Safar was subbed out after a shoulder injury in a collision with Ibrahim Sekagya. Missing Safar would be another tough loss for the Werder game after the torn ACL for striker Tomas Jun.

 

Athletic Bilbao meanwhile lost their home game against Sporting Gijon in the seventh game day of the Priméra Division, extending their winless streak to four games in the Spanish top flight. The Portuguese domestic league took a break last weekend but did play out the fourth round of the national cup. Nacional Funchal struggled against amateur side SC Varzim, trailing 1-0 at half-time before turning the game around and winning 2-1.
