Wattens might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Rapid Wien proved too strong as Wattens slumped to a 2-3 defeat in front of their own fans at Gernot Langes Stadion. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Rapid Wien wasn't a success with a 0-4 loss.
Looking at the earlier recent performances of Wattens when being an outsider away as they are today, we find three matches with the visitors losing two times, drawing one and winning zero games.
A quick return to home after this game, as Wattens are hosting Sturm Graz in the Tipico Bundesliga only three days away.
The travelling fans enjoy Wattens's attacking play in away games, having scored 20 goals in 11 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Wattens's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 18 goals from these trips. It's worth mentioning that 9 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
