Appearing at their own stadium in the last season Blau-Weiß Linz produced 11-2-2 (win-draw-lost) with {32 goals} and 11 conceded.

Hartberg form and stats

Let's have a look at how Hartberg performed last season in the Admiral Bundesliga: They landed a 11th position in the league table after playing out 5 victories, 3 draws and 14 defeats. In total they scored 22 and conceded {42 goals} in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 2 - drew 1 and lost 8 with 8/20 goals scored/conceded.

Hartberg's last game was the home draw against Austria Lustenau (2-2). Drawing 2-2 against Austria Lustenau after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager Schopp needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result. Defender Pfeifer was the best team player with a rating of 8.15. Pfeifer served one assist, hit one key pass and won 6 of 6 duels.

Ahead of that, the Austrian Cup victory away at Favoritner AC. So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Hartberg playing away and similar expectations, we found 10 relevant matches. Results were 2 Hartberg wins, 3 draws and 5 defeats.

Head 2 Head

Hartberg have avoided defeat in the last 5 matches (3-2-0) against Blau-Weiß.
