Celje’s league phase debut in the Europa League will have another big test when they head to Sturm Graz. Placed 19th, Sturm Graz are unbeaten at home, while Celje, 10 places further down, are winless, with two losses. These starts to the competition have our prediction backing a Sturm Graz win.
The only previous meetings between these sides (4) were in friendly matches, and Sturm Graz won three, the other ending in a draw. Competitively, we expect Sturm Graz to do well, especially as they play at home, where they are unbeaten in seven, winning four.
In their last Europa League outing, Sturm Graz shocked Marseille 1-0.
On matchday three, Celje snatched a point with a late equalizer against another Austrian side, Salzburg. The two drew 2-2, and Celje have built on that with two wins and a draw.
They will come here confident of avoiding defeat but will still feel the need to improve on a run of just two wins in six matches. Their last defeat was, however, in the Europa League, 3-0 at home to Omonia.
Bagging just three wins in their last 10 away matches means there is still work to do, but at the same time Celje have only lost three of those 10 games.

Our Sturm Graz vs NK Celje Prediction
Celje head out in search of their first win in their debut season in the UEL league phase. This will be a tough task for the visitors, but their scoring form should offer a lift. That, against a solid Sturm Graz, isn’t an easy game, but after their fight to win a point at Salzburg, they will feel capable.
The hosts have a good run at home and will be looking to bank the points here, though they may have to tighten up defensively. Our prediction for Sturm Graz v Celje is for Sturm Graz to win and BTTS.
