This could be an interesting match as Austria Wien have their presumed home advantage while St. Pölten are ahead 2 points in the Tipico Bundesliga table.
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!

St. Pölten form and stats
It's gone fairly well in the Tipico Bundesliga away games so far for St. Pölten with six points collected from three matches.
The manager R. Ibertsberger was unhappy after their last game, a Tipico Bundesliga match played at their home ground NV ARENA. Pölten suffered a 0-1 loss to Wattens (placed 7th). Before that, Pölten secured a home win against Ried with the score 4-0.
The prediction for this game is lots of goals as Pölten alone have scored more than three on average in their league games away (9 from 3 played). The Pölten manager R. Ibertsberger has some worries about the defense as 6 goals have been conceded in these travels.
