Wolfsberger vs Rapid Wien Prediction: A tight one for both teams

Lavanttal-Arena will host the round 6 Austria Bundesliga League encounter between Wolfsberger and Rapid Wien. Heading into this game, the two teams are just one point ahead, with Rapid Wien in the lead. How will this game unfold?

Wolfsberger

Wolfsberger's last league encounter was against LASK Linz, and this team won 1-5. Wolfsberger scored twice before the break in that game, with Simon Piesinger and David Atanga scoring for this side. However, a strong second-half performance saw this team score three goals in the second half, with Ervin Omic and Maximilian Ulman scoring twice. Heading into this game, Wolfsberger have an unbeaten run of four matches, drawing one and winning three. 

Rapid Wien

Rapid Wien's last encounter was against Red Bull Salzburg, and this team secured a hard-fought victory. In that game, Rapid Wien were held to a 2-2 draw at halftime, with Isak Jansson and Jonas Auer finding the back of the net. However, it was not until the 60th minute that Isak Jansson scored his second goal, which was all they needed to take maximum points. Heading into this encounter, Rapid Wien have two wins, two losses, and one draw in their last five matches. 

Expert Betting Tips

The two teams are in strong form and have a very good shot at taking maximum points in this one. However, I am more interested in the road side looking at their balanced team and the fact they have been very solid to avoid defeats in recent league games. While the home team is also brilliant at winning, I expect them to be a threat to their home turf fans. I expect this game to end with both teams scoring while the road team secures maximum points.
