Wie kommen beide Teams ins Spiel?
Grazer AK go into this encounter buoyed by a thrilling 2-2 draw away at SC Rheindorf Altach six hours ago. That result showcased their attacking intent, as they fought back from behind to earn a share of the spoils. Confidence is high at Merkur Arena, where home support could be the difference.
LASK Linz, historically one of Austria’s top sides, will be looking to build on a mixed run of form so far this season. Known for their high-pressing game and clinical transitions, LASK often pose a threat on the counter. They’ll aim to break down Grazer AK’s defence and leave Graz with all three points.
Unsere Prognose
Expect an open contest with both teams keen to assert dominance early on. Grazer AK will fancy their chances in front of home fans, but LASK’s experience in tight away fixtures could prove decisive. A low-scoring affair seems likely, with each side probing for gaps.
Our tip: a narrow 1:1 Unentschieden looks plausible given Grazer AK’s resilience and LASK’s counter-attacking threat. We also foresee fewer than 3 goals in total and both teams finding the net.
