The 2017/18 Austrian Bundesliga kicks off this weekend and featured in our OddsDigger Rapid Wien vs Mattersburg preview are two clubs looking to improve on largely disappointing 2016/17 campaigns. In the ten team division, Rapid and Mattersburg finished 5th and 7th respectively, with a gap of just 3 points providing the slightest margin in the difference between two similar seasons.
Die Grün-Weißen have enjoyed a decent pre-season, maintaining an unbeaten run through five games, including matches against Scottish champions Celtic and French champions Monaco. Having lost the Cup final in June to compound an underwhelming Bundesliga showing, Goran Djuricin’s team will be keen to get off to the best start possible on Saturday. Read our detailed Rapid Wien vs Mattersburg betting tips below.
The away side travel to the Weststadion having lost just once in eight games. Granted, seven of those were friendlies, but confidence should still be high among Gerald Baumgartner’s squad. We can’t deliver our Rapid Wien vs Mattersburg predictions without talking about the last time the sides met. That meeting came in the second last game of the Bundesliga season – that day Die Grün-Weißen walked away from Burgenland with a 3-1 win.
Our Rapid Wien vs Mattersburg picks favour the home team on this occasion. Having beaten the visitors quite recently already, the club from the capital will be enthusiastic about their chances of triumphing over Mattersburg again. Gerald Baumgartner’s attacking options look thin and they will need to improve on last year’s goal scoring numbers to have any chance of making progress. They were the third lowest scorers in the 2016/17 Austrian Bundesliga. At 4/9 with DafaBet for the home win, you can’t really go wrong.
