National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Leobendorf or Wattens that keep their silverware dream alive.
Leobendorf form and stats
Last season their Austrian Cup adventure ended in the 1st round.Leobendorf has won so many consecutive home games (four in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at Sportplatz Leobendorf. We remember; it was Neusiedl.
Leobendorf are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-3 away versus Traiskirchen.
In the preceding match a 3-0 victory visiting Wiener Viktoria.Leobendorf have spent many days and weeks preparing for this match, with countless hours on the training pitches and two practice matches played. These training games have ended with 1 win, 1 draw and 0 defeats. Some might be interested in the goal production stats for these matches; Leobendorf scored 10 goals and let in 6 goals during these two games.
Wattens form and stats
Wattens's mission in Austrian Cup last season failed in the 2nd round.Wattens lost away at Salzburg (0-4) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. The attacker Nikolai Baden Frederiksen got a match rating of 6.9 in that game. Frederiksen hit one key pass and dribled passed the opponent 1 of 1 times. Wattens lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one.
It was a Tipico Bundesliga defeat before that one as the away game against Salzburg wasn't a success with a 0-4 loss.It's finally time to play a game of importance again as a long period of training has passed. Wattens have played a number of friendly games in this period, resulting in 3 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats from six fixtures.
