Wattens - St. Pölten betting tips and odds

Punters who are looking for a safe bet should definitely consider this match. The home win odds of 1.80 bring great value considering the fact that Wattens are indeed firm favourites to defeat St. Pölten.

At 4.20 betting odds, an away win would be a huge surprise and we’re positive St. Pölten are well aware of it themselves.

Wattens went into their previous Tipico Bundesliga home match against Salzburg as clear underdogs, so the 2:4 loss didn’t catch anyone as a surprise. We should mention, though, that they held up in the first half.

St. Pölten narrowly avoided a home defeat to Ried last round. They were on the path to lose at the 45-minute mark, but an equalizer in the late game allowed them to scrape up a 1:1 draw.

With more than 5 conceded goals over their latest 3 fixtures, Wattens’s performance leaves something to be desired. That said, savvy punters could be able to exploit this – think BTTS or Over 5 Goals markets, for example.

It’s easy to spot a certain trend when looking over St. Pölten’s recent history – and not in a good way. Their latest appearances were marked by a high concession rate. For example, their previous 3 matches featured more than 5 conceded goals.

Looking over the head-to-head statistics for this Tipico Bundesliga season, the hosts already recorded a victory over St. Pölten. This puts them ahead of their opponents, which is reflected in the betting odds.

There’s an interesting development over at Gernot Langes Stadion. It seems both teams have been struck hard by injuries. On one hand, Wattens_INJURIES will not be playing for the hosts. Conversely, St. Pölten_INJURIES will all be unavailable on the away side. Both teams will have to deal with limited options.

An Over 3.5 Goals bet has strong chances of success here, so we can safely recommend it. With the teams’ records for scoring and conceding in mind, the 1 odds offered at 10Bet are more than fair in terms of value.
