This is a vital shoot-out in the lower section of the Erste Liga, with both Dornbirn and Juniors OÖ suffering more anxiety than glee. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the host team at 14th and the visiting team in 16th spot.

Insights:
  • Dornbirn have the fewest scored goals in the first half (5) in Erste Liga
  • Juniors OÖ have the most conceded goals (43) in Erste Liga

This should be an appealing fixture with lots of action and excitement as both sides are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Let's go!

Dornbirn form and stats

With 2 Erste Liga wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats from their home games, Dornbirn are certainly not brimming with confidence. When Dornbirn hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Kapfenberger SV, Vorwarts Steyr, Dornbirn, SV Horn II and Austria Wien II), they have won 1 of 2 matches!

Dornbirn are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 0-4 away versus Amstetten.

Before that, Dornbirn drew at home versus Blau-Wei Linz.

This is expected to be a close game, with Dornbirn perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Dornbirn as a small favourite), we find seven games. Dornbirn has won three of these, drawn two and lost two.

The Dornbirn fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 9 in 8 matches.

Juniors OÖ form and stats

Juniors OÖ have only collected 5 points from their away games in the Erste Liga, after 0-5-4 (9 played). Juniors are desperate to end a 14-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Dornbirn fixture.

Home advantage was not enough for Juniors OÖ in their previous game as they lost hosting Rapid Wien II, 1-3.

Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Lafnitz that ended 2-2.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Juniors playing away and similar expectations, we found nine relevant matches. Results were one Juniors OÖ win, four draws and four defeats.

The attacking power of Juniors OÖ when travelling is not overwhelming with 6 goals scored from 9 league matches away. It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. The Juniors manager Takacs has some worries about the defense as 21 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

Juniors OÖ - Dornbirn 5-2 was the scoreline in these contenders' latest h2h game, earlier this season. As for the last five games between these two teams, there's two Dornbirn victories, one draw and two Juniors OÖ wins. Over/under statistics; five of these games ended with three goals or more, zero matches with two goals or less.
