Austria Wien form and stats

The overall Admiral Bundesliga stats at home this season for Austria Wien are 4-5-2 (wins-draws-losses).

In their previous game, the manager Schmid led his Austria to a defeat away at Sturm Graz. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Generali Arena. Mühl was "man of the match" with a rating of 8.02 out of 10. The defender Mühl won 9 of 10 duels.

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus Austria Klagenfurt.

The Austria Wien fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 16 in 11 matches.

Salzburg form and stats

Salzburg's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Salzburg collect 24 points from their 11 away matches in the Admiral Bundesliga. 7 victories and 3 draws have created these points (and only 1 defeat). Things are running smoothly for Salzburg who hasn't tasted defeat in their last ten matches, regardless of venue and tournament. Their last defeat was against Austria Klagenfurt.

Two trips in a row for Salzburg, whose manager Jaissle could celebrate last time after the win against Austria Klagenfurt. As you can tell from the results above, Salzburg was very dominant against Austria Klagenfurt, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 6-0 (!) with Wöber, Šeško, Kjaergaard, Sučić (2) and Adeyemi providing the goals. A victory against Austria Klagenfurt as mentioned above, but the margin of victory could have been bigger as Salzburg hit the posts three times. Midfield player Sučić was the top player of the team with a match rating of 9.02/10. Sučić scored two goals, hit four key passes and dribled past the opponent 2 of 4 times.

A home win before that, celebrating 2-1 vs Rapid Vienna.

The travelling fans enjoy Salzburg's attacking play in away games, having scored 17 goals in 11 league matches away. It's worth mentioning that 10 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Salzburg are defending well in their away games, having conceded only 8 times in 11 matches.
