We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
St. Pölten form and stats
The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Tipico Bundesliga this season. St. Pölten, who have the fewest points (6) at home in Tipico Bundesliga, have only managed 1 win, 3 draws and 7 losses from their games here at NV ARENA. With nine home Tipico Bundesliga games in a row without a win, the Pölten fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Ried game long ago, can be stopped today.
St. Pölten are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 180 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by K. Schulz).
The fans are hoping that Pölten will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the Tipico Bundesliga game against Rheindorf Altach. Preceding that match was the home game against Admira that was lost 0-1.
Pölten are traveling soon after this match as the Tipico Bundesliga match at Hartberg awaits in three days.
The Pölten fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 12 in 11 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Goals are flowing in at the wrong end for St. Pölten with 23 goals conceded in these matches.
