General match analysis

LASK Linz are third in the table and average 2.2 goals at home, while seventh-placed Wattens score 1.6 away from home. The hosts also create more chances: their average home xG is 1.93, compared with 1.26 for the visitors away, while shots on target stand at 6.2 and 3.8 per match, respectively. Both defences concede 1.2 goals in these conditions, but Wattens allow opponents chances worth an average xG of 1.40, compared with 1.04 for LASK. Recent results nevertheless call for caution: LASK have lost 3 of their last 5 matches, conceding 13 goals in the process, while Wattens have won 3 of their last 5 away games. The hosts’ greater attacking potential points to a win, although their recent defensive struggles give the visitors a chance to spring an upset.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

BTTS has occurred in 80% of LASK's matches, and the hosts have yet to keep a clean sheet, which supports the prospect of a Wattens goal. In their last 5 matches, both teams saw BTTS in 60% of games; LASK conceded an average of 2.6 goals in those matches, while Wattens conceded 1.6. The hosts' chances of scoring are supported by an average xG of 1.73 and 5.2 shots on target per match. However, caution is warranted, as Wattens kept a clean sheet in 60% of its matches, and BTTS occurred in just 20% of its games. Even so, LASK's defensive record and both teams' recent scoring form give a slight edge to the scenario in which both sides score.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

In LASK’s matches, the 1.5-goal line has been exceeded in 100% of cases, compared with 80% in Wattens’ matches, making it the strongest signal among the thresholds analysed. LASK have averaged 4.8 goals in their last five appearances, scoring 2.2 and conceding 2.6 per match. The hosts’ attacking potential is reflected in their xG of 1.73, while Wattens allow opponents chances worth 1.40 xG; the visitors, in turn, generate 1.26 xG, with LASK allowing 1.59 xG. The 3.0-goal forecast also points towards Over 2.5 goals, but with both teams having seen this outcome in just 60% of their matches so far, that line has less support than Over 1.5.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

The strongest signal is a Wattens lead and win: LASK were trailing at half-time in 4 of their 5 analyzed home matches, while the visitors had a lead at the break in 2 of their 5 away matches. In the same samples, the hosts did not win once, whereas Wattens won 3 of their 5 away matches. The visitors’ advantage is also reflected in the goal averages: they score 1.6 and concede 1.2 away from home, compared with LASK’s 1.0 scored and 1.8 conceded at home. LASK concede an average of 1.6 goals at home before half-time, strengthening the case for Wattens to take an early lead. However, this is not a certain scenario, as the hosts concede only 0.2 goals per home match after the break, making a draw after the visitors lead a significant alternative.
