We kick off Matchday 3 in the Austrian Bundesliga at Raiffeisen Arena, with LASK Linz taking on Josko Ried on Friday evening. The Black and Whites have stormed out the blocks this season, and we’re going for them to maintain their perfect record as our match prediction in this one.
After ending their 61-year wait to reclaim the Austrian Bundesliga trophy, LASK have kicked off their title defence with back-to-back wins over Grazer AK (3-0) and Austria Vienna (2-0).
The Black and Whites recorded 3.23 xG, 22 shots at goal and created six big chances last week against Austria Vienna. Andres Andrade and Moses Usor found the net for the team in that victory.
The hosts are unbeaten in their last seven league games at Raiffeisen Arena and scored two or more goals in five matches during this period.
Meanwhile, Ried ended last season in the bottom half of the standings, and they have yet to taste victory this term following a draw against Lustenau and a 2-1 defeat to Rapid last week.
Wikinger recorded 1.09 xG and created three big chances in last week’s defeat. Ante Bajic has been the creative spark in the side so far this term, having notched up an assist in both matches so far.
The visitors have not won a single away league game in 2026, but they did leave this venue with all three points on their last visit in August last year.

Our LASK Linz vs Josko Ried Prediction
Ried have stuttered out the blocks this season, earning just one point from their first two games, and they now head to the home of the defending champions, having not won a league match on the road in 2026.
In contrast, LASK have made a very impressive start to the campaign, winning both their matches without conceding a single goal. Given the starts these sides have made this term, we have to go with the hosts to take all three points from this match. Our LASK Linz vs Josko Ried prediction is LASK Linz wins.
