LASK Linz, Recent FormLASK Linz had to make do with a share of the points in their last match, with a 3-3 draw against Rapid Wien. They achieved 46% possession in that match and had 11 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Rapid Wien's tally of 16 efforts at goal, 7 of which were on target.
It's fair to say that manager Thomas Sageder will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 6 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. Playing at home, they have scored in 5 of their last 6 games and are currently on a run of 5 consecutive clean sheets.
They have been performing well at Raiffeisen Arena recently and are unbeaten in their last 7 home games.
Marin Ljubičić will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for LASK Linz.
Sturm Graz, Recent FormAny Sturm Graz pre-match expectations for their last outing were misplaced, after an unexpected 1-0 home defeat by Austria Wien. In that game they recorded 56 % of the possession, with 16 attempts on goal, 4 on target. Their opponents found the target on 3 of their 9 shots on goal.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 8 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 6 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. Their goal scoring streak away from home now stands at 15 games in a row, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
They have had a strong run of away form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games on the road and picking up 4 wins along the way.
Otar Kiteishvili has scored 3 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against LASK Linz.
It was not a positive ending for LASK Linz last time they met Sturm Graz in the league, with the game ending in a 2-0 defeat.
In their previous 4 encounters with Die Schwoazn, Linz have shipped at least one goal in those matches. In their last 2 league meetings with Die Schwoazn, Linz have not been on scoring form, not managing a single goal.
Linz has lost the last 2 times they've faced Sturm Graz in the league.
