Juniors OÖ form and stats

4 victories, 3 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what Juniors OÖ have to build on here at Raiffeisen Arena in the Erste Liga.

Ahead of that match, Juniors won a home game hosting Amstetten (4-0).

Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at F. Benko for missing a penalty kick versus Grazer AK in the 23rd minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.

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

There will be little rest for Juniors after this match as they are travelling to Liefering for a Erste Liga game in only three days.

Juniors has scored 13 league goals at home this season, in 11 matches. Juniors have conceded 18 from these games.

Floridsdorfer AC form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Floridsdorfer AC so far with only 6 points returning home. The records show 1-3-7 (win-draw-lose).

The manager R. Ellensohn was unhappy after their last game, a Erste Liga match played at their home ground Job Consulting Arena. Floridsdorfer suffered a 0-1 loss to Vorwärts Steyr (placed 10th). Prior to that match, the Floridsdorfer manager R. Ellensohn faced defeat when travelling to Austria Wien II and losing 1-2.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Floridsdorfer AC playing away and similar expectations, we found ten relevant matches. Results were two Floridsdorfer AC wins, one draw and seven defeats.

The attacking power of Floridsdorfer AC when travelling is not overwhelming with 9 goals scored from 11 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. Floridsdorfer's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 19 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head

These teams' last encounter with each other was the Floridsdorfer AC - Juniors 2-1 earlier this season. H2H stats regardless of arena (last five matches): Juniors one win, three draws and Floridsdorfer AC one victory. As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), two games had two or less.
