Between 2008 and 2011, the Viennese could only win once in the Bundesliga in Kapfenberg.
After the success at LASK, the first league victory, the 0-0 win against Altach was followed by a small idle in the gears of Wiener Austria. The next location determination will take place today in the 2nd round of the Cup.
And that in Styria, at the second division Kapfenberg (6.30 p.m.). “It is of course not an easy task. Kapfenberg has always been a difficult place with deep ground, “says Markus Suttner, who often made a guest appearance with the Violettes at the then Bundesliga club Kapfenberg. And if you take the balance sheet from that time, the endeavor shouldn't be child's play today.
Between 2008 and 2011 Austria could only win once in the Bundesliga in Kapfenberg, on November 29, 2008 Joachim Standfest scored the 2-1 winner four minutes before the end of the game. Five games ended in a draw, the Styrians won twice. The last official duel so far decided the Viennese in Kapfenberg for themselves. On April 7, 2015, Austria, trained by Andreas Ogris, won the cup quarter-finals 2-0.
The English week, and Austria does not have too many of them after the rapid end of the European Cup, does not at least bother central defender Lukas Mühl. “That's what you play football for.”

The Upper Austria derby between the second division taillights Steyr and Ried (20.25 live ORF Sport Plus) also promises explosiveness.
