Rapid Wien form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Rapid Wien's two home games so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Allianz Stadion.

Happy days for Rapid Wien in their previous game, a Tipico Bundesliga match away at Sturm Graz that ended with a 1-0 victory. Before that, Rapid Wien had a home game versus Rheindorf Altach which ended with a victory 2-1.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Rapid Wien have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found two matches with the results: Won 1 Drawn 1 Lost 0.

Early season goal statistics from Rapid Wien's 2 home games: 2 goals, 3 conceded.

LASK Linz form and stats

LASK Linz are yet to lose a point on their travels this season with 2 wins from 2 away games. Long winning streaks away are a rare occurrence in football, which only makes LASK Linz's record of four away victories in a row even more impressive. They last lost points away in the Union Vocklamarkt game.

The manager V. Ismaël was unhappy after their last game, a Champions League match played at their home ground Allianz Stadion. LASK Linz suffered a 0-1 loss to Club Brugge. Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Wattens in the Tipico Bundesliga.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found five similar matches played by LASK Linz in our archives, and the results are: 1 win for LASK Linz, 1 draw and 3 defeats.

The schedule is very tough for LASK Linz now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Champions League game at Club Brugge is waiting in only four days.

As for goals scored and conceded in away games so far, LASK Linz has managed 4 goals and let in 0 from 2 matches.

Head 2 Head

Last ten meetings between the teams: Rapid Wien won 5, LASK Linz won 2 and 3 draws. 3 games with over 2,5 goals, 7 matches with two goals or less.
