Week 6 features a match on Sun Aug 28th, where Wattens plays host to Wolfsberger AC in a clash of these two mismatched Tipico Bundesliga teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 18 degrees, which will be a great treat for players. 6th placed Wattens is fresh off their 2-1 win against Ried. Tin Plavotic struck first for Ried in the 33rd minute, but Sandi Ogrinec got the equalizer for Wattens in the 48th minute But fortunately they were able to complete the comaback victory in the 85th minute on a goal by Žan Rogelj. Wattens is looking for direction having earned 12 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, Wolfsberger AC recorded a 1-2 loss against Austria Wien. Thorsten Röcher scored the first goal for Wolfsberger AC in the 16th minute, then in the 36th minute, Dominik Fitz sent in a beautiful pass which was converted by Andreas Gruber But fortunately they were able to complete the comaback in the 65th minute on a goal by Marco Djuricin. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having lost 3 of their last 10.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Last season Wattens won the head to head battle with 1 win and 1 draw.
Konstantin Kerschbaumer and Thai Baribo are the top scorers for Wolfsberger AC in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats. Wattens is glad to have Tim Prica in top form. In the last five matches the attacker has scored five goals.
