Form Guide

WSG Wattens — All Games: 3W 2D 5L from 10 Bundesliga outings this season, averaging 1.10 points per game. Last five: W D L L W. They are averaging 1.20 goals per game and conceding 1.60 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. This season is still relatively young for WSG Wattens, so this record blends games from this season and last.

At home at Tivoli Stadion Tirol, WSG Wattens have gone 3W 4D 3L this season (10 games, 1.30 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.40 goals scored and 1.70 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 70% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture.

Looking at all fixtures this season, Austria Vienna stand at 2W 1D 7L from 10 Bundesliga matches — 0.70 PPG. Last five: L W D L L. Their scoring rate of 0.90 per game is modest, conceding 2.10 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Conceding 2.10 per game is a high rate — their defensive vulnerabilities have been exposed regularly this season. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. This season is still relatively young for Austria Vienna, so this record blends games from this season and last.

Austria Vienna's away record: 3W 2D 5L from 10 road trips in Bundesliga this season (1.10 PPG). Away from home they average 1.30 goals scored and 2.00 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.

The form figures are too closely matched to derive a directional pick: WSG Wattens 1.10 PPG, Austria Vienna 0.70 PPG. Look to other data sets to build the analysis.

The BTTS market is worth targeting here. WSG Wattens register both teams scoring in 70% of relevant matches, Austria Vienna in 60% (using home/away splits) — both sides above the 60% threshold gives BTTS Yes firm statistical grounding.

Head to Head

Austria Vienna have tended to come out on top in this fixture, winning 6 of the last 10 encounters against WSG Wattens's 2 victories.

The 10 previous meetings have averaged 1.9 goals per game — a neutral rate that provides no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent clash, on 2 Sep 2026, ended 1–0 with WSG Wattens winning.

It is worth noting that Austria Vienna have a superior record in this fixture despite their visitor status — 6 wins from 10 meetings. Home advantage alone is not a sufficient reason to dismiss that track record.

Trading Patterns

WSG Wattens in-play and half-time data (41 games, 20 at home): they score before half-time in 90% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 57% of the time; BTTS occurs in 70% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 55% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 37%.

Austria Vienna in-play and half-time data (41 games, 20 at away): they score before half-time in 90% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 89% of the time; BTTS occurs in 65% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 65% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 37%.

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — WSG Wattens 56% versus Austria Vienna 56%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (WSG Wattens 54% | Austria Vienna 58%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects WSG Wattens 1.73 xG and Austria Vienna 1.74 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 0.827 / defence 1.208 | Austria Vienna attack 1.105 / defence 1.160. League average goals — home 1.806 / away 1.304. Data: 31 WSG Wattens games / 31 Austria Vienna games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: WSG Wattens 36% | Draw 27% | Austria Vienna 37%. Fair-value odds: WSG Wattens 2.78 | Draw 3.70 | Austria Vienna 2.70. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 27% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 67% | BTTS probability 70% | Total xG 3.47. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 67% — a total xG of 3.47 means the expected score alone exceeds the 2.5 threshold, making the Over not just likely but structurally supported by both sides' attack/defence profiles. BTTS Yes at 70% reflects that both xG figures (1.73 / 1.74) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Our Verdict

Poisson rates Austria Vienna as the most likely outcome at 37% — marginal model lean. With a 27% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Austria Vienna offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 36% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

The Poisson model projects 3.47 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 67% — marginal — conflicting signals confidence, supported by form averaging 3.2 goals per game — though H2H averaging only 1.9 goals per meeting points in the other direction.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 70% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: WSG Wattens 70% | Austria Vienna 60% BTTS from recent games.

The outsider holds a 36% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should not be treated as one. Proportionate stakes are appropriate given the genuine contest the data projects.
