St. Pölten, as the league leaders, demonstrate significantly higher quality than First Vienna, who occupy 9th place. The visitors boast an impressive record of 11 wins this season and a clear offensive advantage - averaging 1.56 goals per away match with an xG of 1.82, while the hosts score only 1.13 goals at home with an xG of 1.31. St. Pölten also dominates possession (62% vs 54%) and registers significantly more shots on target (5.56 vs 2.75 per match). First Vienna loses half of their home games and has a negative goal difference (-2), which, coupled with their poor form (1 win in their last 5 matches), places them in a tough spot. Although St. Pölten are also not in peak form recently, their qualitative and statistical edge should translate into an away victory.
