Sturm Graz vs Austria Vienna Prediction and Betting Tips | February 7th 2025

Defending champions Sturm Graz will entertain Austria Vienna at Merkur Arena in a top-of-the-table Austrian Bundesliga clash on Friday. Just three points separate Die Schwoazn and the second-placed visitors.

The hosts have lost two of their three competitive games in 2025. They have enjoyed a 10-game unbeaten streak in the Bundesliga and defeated Tirol 3-0 in their previous league outing in December. William Böving scored in the first half while Seedy Jatta and Malick Yalcouyé added goals after the break.

The capital club concluded 2024 on an eight-game winning streak in the Bundesliga. They hosted Rheindorf Altach in their previous league outing and registered a comfortable 3-0 home win. Dominik Fitz broke the deadlock from the penalty spot in the 12th minute while Reinhold Ranftl and Nik Prelec were on the scoresheet in the second half.

The two teams met in the Austrian Cup quarterfinals last week, and Vienna registered a 2-0 away win. Ranftl scored in the ninth minute and Marko Raguž doubled their lead in the 89th minute.

Sturm Graz vs Austria Vienna Prediction

Die Schwoazn have failed to score in two of their three games in 2025 and will look to improve upon that record. They have lost just one of their last 15 league games while recording 11 wins and will look to build on that form. They have lost just one of their last seven Bundesliga home meetings against Vienna, with that loss registered last season.

Die Veilchen are on an eight-game winning streak in the Bundesliga, scoring 16 goals while keeping five clean sheets, and are strong favorites. They registered a 2-0 away win in their first competitive match of 2025 in the Austrian Cup last week and will look to build on that form.

While the visitors have enjoyed an unbeaten record against the hosts this season, Sturm Graz have an impressive record in the league this season and should be able to hold the capital club to a draw.

Prediction: Sturm Graz 1-1 Austria Vienna
