Grazer AK's away record over their last 10 away games: 1W 3D 6L (0.60 PPG). Away from home they average 0.70 goals scored and 1.80 conceded per game. Their away PPG of 0.60 is notably below their overall 1.40 — form away from home has been a clear weakness recently.

A near-identical PPG reading — 1.50 for WSG Wattens, 1.40 for Grazer AK — means the form record is uninstructive on result selection. The goals and market sections will carry greater evidential weight.

H2H History

The head-to-head record is closely matched — across the 5 H2H matches in our data, Grazer AK edge it 1 wins to 0, with 4 draws. Neither side has a commanding advantage.

Scoring has been limited in the 5 H2H matches in our data, averaging 1.4 goals per game, which makes Under 2.5 the head-to-head-backed angle in the goals market. The most recent of those, on 16 Aug 2025, ended WSG Wattens 1–1 Grazer AK — a draw.

With a balanced win record and just 1.4 goals per game, the H2H data points toward a tight, low-scoring contest — Under 2.5 is the stronger head-to-head angle regardless of which side wins.

Trading

WSG Wattens half-time and goal-timing data (last 53 games, 26 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 69% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 56% of the time; of the 14 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 43%; of the 15 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 27%; BTTS occurs in 54% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 42% of games (home games); they fail to score in 34% of games.

Grazer AK half-time and goal-timing data (last 53 games, 26 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 65% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 59% of the time; of the 6 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 33%; BTTS occurs in 62% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 58% of games (away games); they fail to score in 32% of games.

From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — WSG Wattens 57% and Grazer AK 64% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (WSG Wattens 51% | Grazer AK 57%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects WSG Wattens 1.38 xG and Grazer AK 1.05 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: WSG Wattens attack 0.937 / defence 1.000 | Grazer AK attack 0.873 / defence 1.107. League average goals — home 1.326 / away 1.202. Data: built from WSG Wattens's last 43 games and Grazer AK's last 43.

Result probabilities: WSG Wattens 44% | Draw 29% | Grazer AK 28%. Fair-value odds: WSG Wattens 2.30 | Draw 3.50 | Grazer AK 3.59. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 29% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 44% | BTTS Yes probability 49% | Total xG 2.42. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 56% — total xG of 2.42 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS No at 51% is only a slight lean — the model gives both sides a fair chance of scoring, so No isn't a clear standalone call.

Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is WSG Wattens at 44% — marginal model lean. Draw probability of 29% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on WSG Wattens if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 28% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

Poisson projects 2.42 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 56% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by the H2H data averaging 1.4 goals per game across 5 H2H matches.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 51% on No. This conflicts with form data — both teams scored in: WSG Wattens 70% (last 10 home games) | Grazer AK 50% (last 10 away games), a notable divergence.
