Austria are still in the championship race, trailing Sturm by 6 points, but having played 1 round less, so the gap can be reduced to 3 points. Although ‘Violets’ need points in any case, not to lose the 2nd place, which send the team to the qualification of the UEFA Champions League.
Rapid are no longer a contender for anything this season, the team will not be able to get into the European Cup zone, as the gap is 11 points. But still on face-to-face meetings it can be seen that Rapid is an uncomfortable opponent for Austria, so the hosts look favourites, but it's better to take a handicap.
Prediction: Austria is closer to win than to lose. We recommend the “1 DNB” bet, odds 1.57
