Ried’s recent league form has not been terrible, as a 3-0 defeat at Rheindorf Altach last time out in the Bundesliga ended an eight-game unbeaten league run.
On the flip side, the loss also means that the home side has failed to win in four league matches, as their previous three matches ended in draws.
Ried are also unbeaten in four home matches in the Bundesliga. However, they have won just two of their last ten league games on home soil.
One factor in that mixed home form is that they have failed to score in four of their last six home matches in the Bundesliga.
Austria Wien are the second most successful club in the history of Austrian football. However, they have struggled to live up to their glorious past in recent seasons.
This season has not been great, although they are top of the relegation group, which they will finish top of with a victory in this clash.
The visitors recent league form has been inconsistent, although they have now claimed two straight victories in the Bundesliga and have lost just one of their last seven outings in the Austrian top-flight.
The team from the country’s capital have been in mixed form on their travels too, as they head into this game with a record of three defeats and two wins in their last five matches on their travels.
Forebet predicts that Austria Wien will end the season with a victory in a low-scoring encounter.
