Sturm Graz, Recent FormSturm Graz manager Christian Ilzer will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 1-1 draw in his team's last league outing against Rapid Wien. They came away from that fixture with 47% of the possession and clocked up 10 attempts on goal with 3 on target. By comparison, Rapid Wien managed 10 attempts on goal, with 3 on target.
Ilzer will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 10 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 5 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games.
Their strong run of form, both away and at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 9 games in a row.
When it comes to home matches at Merkur-Arena, Manprit Sarkaria will be feeling confident about finding the net again, with 6 league goals for Sturm Graz in their last 6 home games.
WSG Tirol, Recent FormThe WSG Tirol squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 3-2 home defeat against Wolfsberger AC, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. In that game they had 46% possession and managed 10 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Wolfsberger AC who had 16 attempts and 4 on target.
Their boss Thomas Silberberger is sure to be taking a close look at his defence, who have given away 12 goals over the last 6 matches and yet amazingly still managed to collect some valuable points during this poor defensive spell due to their 9 goals scored. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have failed to record a clean sheet in their last 16 games.
Their form away from home has been of some concern, having recorded just 2 wins and 3 defeats in their last 6 matches on the road. They've struggled to find their way so far this season, winning just 1 of their 8 league games.
Away from home in the league, Nik Prelec has given the WSG Tirol travelling fans plenty to get excited about, with 3 goals from their last 6 games on the road.
Not many saw the outcome of the last meeting between these sides as a surprise, with Sturm Graz running out winners in a match that ended 0-2.
The WSG Tirol defence has struggled against Sturm Graz in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 10 games. We have seen plenty of goals from Die Schwoazn when they play at home against WSG Tirol. In their last 3 league matches they have scored a total of 10 goals, which is an average of 3.33 goals per game.
WSG Tirol will be hoping to get at least a point from this game having lost the last 5 times they've visited Sturm Graz in the league and not won this away fixture at Merkur-Arena for 5 games in a row.
With 4 goals from the previous 3 league matches against WSG Tirol at Merkur-Arena, Sturm Graz player, Jakob Jantscher, will be looking forward to this clash.
There is only really one injury concern for the Sturm Graz manager Christian Ilzer ahead of this clash, with Gregory Wüthrich (Muscle) missing out, which gives Ilzer a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
WSG Tirol manager Thomas Silberberger has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
