Austrian side Sturm Graz host NK Celje of Slovenia for their UEFA Europa League match. Die Schwoazn got their first Europa League win of the campaign last time out, a 1-0 win over French side Marseille. Celje are yet to win in this competition this season and it's a tough task to do so here. Grofje are in decent form, though. They're unbeaten in their last five games, winning two of them. Compare that to the form of Sturm Graz, who haven't won any of their last three games.
While Celje are in decent form at the moment, Sturm Graz are likely to be a much tougher opposition than what they're used to. Having said that, with the Austrian side not in the greatest of form, and with Celje getting a point in their last Europa League game, the Slovenians will be confident of taking something from this game.
For our prediction, we're looking at the Total Goals market. We don't think this fixture will provide many goals at all. We're picking under 2.5 goals for this one.
