Floridsdorfer AC form and stats

Floridsdorfer AC's first Erste Liga home game here at Job Consulting Arena ended in defeat. Last season their home statistics were 11 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats from 15 matches.

A strong away win for Floridsdorfer AC against Lafnitz the last match, as Schöfl, Miljanić and Kröhn (2) were on target. As mentioned above, Floridsdorfer "killed" Lafnitz in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.

Before that game, the home loss against First Vienna with the scoreline 0-1.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Floridsdorfer AC matches with similar probabilities have ended with 2 wins, 0 draws and 3 defeats (from 5 games).

Floridsdorfer AC has scored 0 goals so far and conceded 1 goal from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.

Vorwärts Steyr form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the Erste Liga ended in defeat. Last season Vorwärts Steyr had these away match statistics: Played 15; won 3, drew 4 and lost 8.

Impressive finishing from Sivrikaya (2) secured the home win 2-1 against Dornbirn in their previous game. Yippee; their first victory in the league after six rounds not winning.

Preceding that game, the 3-4 loss visiting Liefering's place.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Vorwärts playing away, we found 7 games. Results were 3 away wins, 2 draws and 2 home wins.

It's early days yet, but Vorwärts Steyr has scored 3 and conceded 4 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).
