The Blackies are placed dead last in this Championship Group, and they have a 100% losing record in the post-season so far. Not only have they lost all of their fixtures, but they have let in 11 goals from their total three games as well.

Moreover, they were winless in 12 of their previous 15 overall match-ups, and remained so in eight of their former nine away fixtures as well.

On the other hand, Schopp’s men have a 100% winning record in the Championship Group so far, disregarding their match-up against Salzburg. However, note that Salzburg are the toppers as well as the defending champions of the league.

Schopp’s men have also scored two or more goals in all matches but one. Moreover, the past five h2h encounters had ended in wins for the the teams at home, and most importantly, at this venue, Schopp’s men have a 100% winning record in h2h league fixtures, and impressively have not conceded a single goals in such clashes.
