Austria Vienna have the chance to close in on rivals Rapid Vienna when the two face off in the Vienna derby on Sunday. Arguably the biggest match of the weekend in the Bundesliga, there’s an added impetus in the teams being separated by three points. Here’s our preview and prediction as Die Grün-Weißen host Die Veilchen.
Rapid Vienna will start the weekend placed second in the standings with pressure to win, having played a game more. They are on 11 points after six matches and will hope home form plays in their favor.
None of the last five Vienna derbies was won by the away team, and Rapid comes here unbeaten in the last two. Having lost just once in six league matches, Robert Klauss’ side will be confident of claiming the bragging rights.
The visitors have dominated recent meetings with Rapid Vienna, only losing once in the last six. Before then this match was notorious for draws and if those are to be counted, then Austria Vienna have just one loss in 13 meetings.
They have three wins in the process, and will feel capable of taking all points from this clash. Austria Vienna were actually the last away team to win in this fixture, back in 2022.
Ahead of this game they are unbeaten in five matches across league and cup competitions. The only concern they will have as they arrive for this game, is that in their last seven matches they have no clean sheet.
In their most recent game, Austria Vienna led away at Rheindorf Altach but the match ended 1-1.

Our Rapid Wien vs Austria Vienna Prediction
Playing at home in the second straight Vienna derby will be an advantage for Rapid. The hosts are unbeaten in the last two meetings between these rivals though one ended in a draw.
This fixture is rarely dictated by recent form but one thing is almost a guarantee – goals. However, the last two matches were an exception as at least one team failed to score.
Both teams scored seven times in the last 10 meetings between Rapid and Austria Vienna. Going by their recent returns in attack, we expect that trend to return. Therefore, our prediction for Rapid Vienna v Austria Vienna is for both teams to score.
