Austria: 2009-10 Austrian Football Bundesliga

“This is the 98th season of top flight football in Austria, and the 36th season of Austrian Football Bundesliga (the first Austrian Bundesliga season was 1974-75). Reigning champions are Red Bull Salzburg. Prior to 1949, clubs from outside the capital of Vienna did not compete in the professional first division. Over the years, Austria has been plagued with numerous instances of prominent clubs folding, declaring bankruptcy and being forced to drop down to lower divisions and/or merge with other clubs. Which is why the list of all-time title holders in Austrian pro football is so complicated. The list is at the bottom of the map. Below are the home grounds of the last 3 champions in Austria…Red Bull Salzburg, Rapid Wien, and Austria Wien.” (billsportsmaps)
