Hartberg - Rapid Wien predictions

It’s hard to see even the most ardent of Hartberg fans expect a victory here. As clear underdogs, even a draw against Rapid Wien would be quite impressive, let alone an upset in the form of a home win.

The most likely outcome of this match is Rapid Wien walking away with three more points. That said, both a draw and a home win are still on the table, though both are relatively risky propositions.

Hartberg’s latest away victory against Austria Wien was a surprise to experts and bookies alike. Most sportsbooks priced an away win at 4.85 going in, but they managed to snag an early lead and a stunning 1:3 victory.

Rapid Wien won their most recent Tipico Bundesliga game 1:2, so confidence in their away performance is quite high. The 2.71 odds most bookies offered for such an outcome can largely be attributed to the home-field disadvantage, but the matchup was no walk in the park either.

Based on what we’ve been seeing from Rapid Wien lately, you may wish to consider placing a bet like Under 5 Goals. Their most recent two home games featured fewer than 2 total goals at the final whistle.

With no injuries reported on either side of the pitch, both coaches have their full rosters at their disposal. As such, the odds remain firmly in the visitors’ favour.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 2.08. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
