Wolfsberger AC form and stats

Things could have gone better for Wolfsberger AC in their Admiral Bundesliga away matches, but 4 points from 3 games is all right.

Home advantage was not enough for Wolfsberger AC in their previous game as they lost hosting Austria Klagenfurt, 3-4. As you can tell from the result, the match against Austria Klagenfurt was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?

Ahead of that, the Austrian Cup win away at Deutschlandsberger SC. Wolfsberger are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 3 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeat. From a total of 4 matches.
