SK Sturm Graz

vs

SC Austria Lustenau

Preview

Sturm Graz

• Sturm Graz are sitting 2nd in the Bundesliga with 7 points from 3 games, 3 more than their visitors Austria Lustenau, who are 4th with 4 points after 3 games.
• In their 3 most recent outings, they have beaten TSV Hartberg 2-0 away, lost 0-1 at home to Fenerbahce SK in Champions League qualifying and beaten SC Rheindorf Altach 1-0 at home.

Austria Lustenau

• Die Grün-Weißen's form has also been inconsistent, as they won 2, drew 1 and lost 2 of their last 5 games, although their most recent outing was a 2-1 away defeat to Grazer AK 1902 that followed a 2-1 home win over Wolfsberger AC.
• Markus Mader plays his team in a compact 4-3-3 system, but he sets them up to be much more organised than the hosts, relying more on counter-attacks and the defensive work-rate of his players than on all-out pressing.

Head-to-Head

• Sturm Graz have won each of their last 3 meetings with Austria Lustenau in the Bundesliga.
• Die Schwoazn have won their only home game in the Bundesliga 2026-2027 and conceded 0 goals.

Key Players

• Simon Seidl has been the player pulling the strings for Sturm, registering 3 assists in as many Bundesliga 2026-2027 games and creating 3 of their last 6 goals.
• Nelson Weiper is the most advanced player, and is Sturm's main finisher, netting 2 in his 2 games so far this season and scoring 2 of their last 6.

Betting Insights

• The bookmakers have it that Die Schwoazn are the most likely winners on Saturday, which is no surprise, but they are priced at 1.3, with Die Grün-Weißen on the board at 9.75 and the draw at 5.0.
• The numbers look better for Sturm to win to nil, given that the home team have kept a clean sheet in their only Bundesliga 2026-2027 home game so far.
