Combo Winner : Sturm Graz and +1.5 goals
Heart of Midlothian are in poor form coming into this match. They have lost four of their last five matches across all competitions, including a heavy 4-0 defeat to Sturm Graz just a week ago. That recent meeting saw four goals in total. Hearts are struggling to keep clean sheets and have been losing games by multiple goals.
Sturm Graz have also lost their last few matches, but they won the crucial head-to-head game against Hearts with a convincing 4-0 scoreline. This match feels very open and likely to have goals again. Based on recent form and the result of the last meeting, Sturm Graz look set to win this one as well.
