Sturm Graz is eager to continue their winning streak following their recent 0-2 success over Tirol in the Bundesliga.

Mika Biereth (9') and Jon Gorenc Stanković (12') were the goal-scorers for Sturm Graz, while WSG Tirol had 15 shots at goal with only 2 on target. Sturm Graz has been consistently effective in scoring, hitting the target in 100% of their last 6 games, accumulating a total of 11 goals while conceding only 3. Examining their recent results, Sturm Graz remains unbeaten against Wolfsberger AC in their last 3 matches and has not suffered a defeat in their last 3 home league matches.

Wolfsberger AC enters this match on the back of a 0-1 Bundesliga victory, prevailing over LASK Linz in their previous outing. In that game, Wolfsberger AC held 39% possession and made 12 attempts at goal, with 5 on target. Thierno Ballo (14') was the lone goal-scorer for Wolfsberger AC, while LASK Linz had 7 attempts on goal, with 3 on target. Notably, in 5 of their last 6 games, Wolfsberger AC has been involved in matches with a relatively low goal volume against opposing teams. The overall average goals scored per game during that period stands at a modest 2, with Wolfsberger AC averaging 1 goal per game.

A total of 20 goals were scored in these matchups, with die Schwoazn contributing 9 goals and Wolfsberger tallying 11. The average number of goals per game stands at 3.33.

Both teams are currently in good form as they approach this match, and I anticipate a display of character from both sides. However, Sturm Graz is diligently striving to maintain pace with Red Bull Salzburg at the top of the standings. Despite expecting a formidable challenge from Wolfsberger, I am confident that the hosts will secure a narrow victory in this encounter.
