Grazer AK had to settle for a share of the spoils in their last match, which ran out a 1-1 draw against TSV Hartberg.  Their share of possession in that meeting was 36%, while racking up 5 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target, in contrast to TSV Hartberg, who had 13 shots on goal with 1 on target.  

Having lost 12 goals in their past 6 matches, boss Gernot Messner will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 11 goals they scored.  Their goal scoring streak at home now stands at 19 games in a row, but they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games at Merkur-Arena.  

They've been performing well at Merkur-Arena of late, with an unbeaten record of 5 games from 6, 3 of which were wins.

A point gained from their 1-1 draw against Austria Vienna in their previous encounter will not be considered a bad outcome for SCR Altach.  In that game they recorded 37 % of the possession, with 15 attempts on goal, 5 on target. Their opponents found the target on 4 of their 16 shots on goal.  

Manager Joachim Standfest will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 9 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 8 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way.   They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.  

It's been a mixed run of form for Alt recently with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 defeats in their last 6 games.  

With 6 goals scored in SCR Altach's last 6 outings in the league, Gustavo Santos has shown a great run of form in finding the back of the net.
