Hartberg form and stats

3 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses. That’s the product of Hartberg playing as the away team in the Admiral Bundesliga this season. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on Russ, the Hartberg manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

Hartberg play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-2 to Austria Wien (placed 5th). Steinwender, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.83. Steinwender hit the woodwork once and won 1 of 1 duels.

Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Admira.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Hartberg manager Russ as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Ried.

The travelling fans enjoy Hartberg's attacking play in away games, having scored 15 goals in 10 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Hartberg have conceded 14 goals in these away matches. Hartberg has visited these top teams three times, and 3 of 3 has ended with 2 goals or more!
