Rapid Vienna vs Austria Vienna Prediction

Neither Rapid nor Austria have performed at the expected level this season. The hosts occupy the final spot in the Championship playoff spots and will look to end their 12-game winless run against their city rivals.

Austria, meanwhile, know that a win will take them above Rapid in the standings, and their long unbeaten record in the fixture also gives them confidence. They have won their two league games since the league's resumption as they look to win three straight games for the first time since October.

Draws have been the most recurring result in the fixture. Although either side could nick a win, expect the two sides to cancel each other out in a low-scoring stalemate.
