Wattens - Rapid Wien predictions

A mere glance at the betting odds for this match should tell you most you need to know. A home win here is almost an impossible outcome, so it’s not very likely we’ll see solid betting opportunities in the 1X2 market.

Though we can’t say for certain, all signs are pointing towards Rapid Wien as the final winner of this showdown. Wattens have been known to surprise us from time to time, though, so the match isn’t a done deal.

Wattens are coming off from a narrow 2:1 away defeat in the previous round. The home-field disadvantage and a very difficult match-up against Grazer AK ensured that they spent most of the game trailing behind.

The visitors are coming off from a fairly easy home win in the previous round of the Tipico Bundesliga. A healthy 2:0 HT/FT victory will have certainly boosted their confidence ahead of the Saturday clash.

Wattens’s recent Tipico Bundesliga away games were marked by a lot of concessions – 6 over the last 3 matches, to be exact. Therefore, betting on goals might be a fairly reasonable option here.

A quick look at the away team’s recent track record reveals that they haven’t let a single of their most recent 7 matches go by without scoring at least once. Statistically speaking, they’re likely to continue this streak.

Rapid Wien decisively won their previous engagement with Wattens. They secured a multiple-goal difference in an earlier round of the Tipico Bundesliga, and most bookies are expecting a repeat of that success.

The absence of injuries or suspensions means both teams will have their full lineups at their disposal for a thrilling matchup.

Our tip is to go for an HT/FT wager with the away team selected for both halves. The risk is fairly manageable considering the market in question, and the 1 odds offer a good return that makes the wager worthwhile.
