Sturm Graz are coming into this match in very poor shape. They have lost their last five games, and in three of those defeats, they conceded five goals. That shows a team that is really struggling and finding it hard to keep the ball out of their own net. Lask Linz, on the other hand, have no recent results listed, which could mean they have had a good break or a quiet period.

With no history of previous meetings to look at, the focus is entirely on Sturm Graz's terrible recent form. This makes the match look very open, as Lask Linz will be confident of taking advantage of a team that has been losing heavily. Given the away side's struggles, Lask Linz should win this match.
