Struggling Kapfenberger SV will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Austria Wien II in the upcoming league round. It’s 16th vs 4th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Austria Wien II have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 12-9-13 (win-draw-loss) from 34 matches.

For Kapfenberger SV relegation is already certain this season. Only divine intervention and/or time travel can save them and neither look likely. Austria is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.
