Admira form and stats

Admira are steadily winning Erste Liga games and points here at BSFZ-Arena. 5 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats is the summary from 8 games. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Admira to get some points in this home game.

Times are rough for the home team, having gone 220 minutes without scoring a league goal. Schmidt was the last player to find the net.

Admira are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-1 away versus Liefering. The penalty miss from Schmidt in the defeat against Liefering was a source of irritation for some fans, but these things happen.

Heartbreak before that as Admira lost 0-1 at Liefering's place.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Admira have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 8 matches with the results: Won 5, drawn 1 and lost 2.

Playing away, Lafnitz have won 3 games, drawn 0 and suffered 5 defeats in the Erste Liga this season. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Lafnitz have lost on their last two travels.

Impressive finishing from Gölles (2) and Poldrugač secured the home win 5-1 against Sturm Graz II in their previous game. That win felt good as this team had gone four league rounds without winning. As you can tell from the results above, Lafnitz was very dominant against Sturm Graz II, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 5-1 (!) with Gölles (2) and Poldrugač providing the goals. It's hard not to mention Poldrugač's lethal finishing against Sturm Graz II. three goals were a big reason for the important victory.

That result followed a home victory 5-1 versus Sturm Graz II.
