Rapid Wien vs Sturm Graz Prediction & Betting Tips - Austrian Bundesliga
by Kennedy Kechula in Football Predictions
Rapid Vienna will be looking to continue with their fine start in the season when they host Sturm Graz on Sunday. For this top game to kick off the Austrian Bundesliga, read on for our preview and prediction.
As they take on the champions, Rapid Vienna will hope their positive start to the season extends. They come into this game on the back of three straight wins. Rapid booked their place in the Europa League 3rd qualifying round with an 8-2 aggregate win over Wisla Krakow.
Right before this game they posted a 6-1 win at home in the return leg of that tie. The result meant Rapid have now scored two or more goals in each of their three matches this season. The two Europa League matches sandwiched a 2-0 cup win against Neusiedl. Rapid have, however, failed to beat Sturm Graz in five straight games.
Sturm Graz had a shaky start, needing to go all the way to extra time before eliminating Krems/Rehberg in their cup game. They scored four in the clash, winning 4-2 after twice seeing their leads canceled.
Ahead of their second match of the season, the champions will want to take positives in their scoring form. However, conceding twice against a much weaker team will be a concern. With that win, Sturm Graz are unbeaten in 11 competitive matches.
In eight of those games, they scored at least two goals, and seven of them had over 2.5 goals. They also start the season undefeated in their last 10 away matches. Head-to-head, the champions have a dominant run against Rapid Vienna, winning each of their last three meetings.
