LASK vs Austria Lustenau Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in Austrian Bundesliga on Friday, 24 February 2023.
LASK have not been at their dominant best like previous seasons – but make no mistake that they are still one of the top-rated teams in the league. And the squad is in the running for a podium finish as well.
Meanwhile, Lustenau are placed in the bottom tier of the league table, and more than that they have been a total mess on the road.
LASK won three of the past four clashes between the two teams, and they are unbeaten against this opponent in the past seven years. They also scored ten goals from the past four h2h encounters.
Moreover, the hosts also won six of the previous seven clashes at this ground.
LASK are placed third in the table at the moment, and they last lost a game back in the first week of November. They are also unbeaten at home in the past five months, and lost here just twice since April.
On the other hand, Lustenau last managed to deliver a win on the road back in August, and they are also a team that were promoted to the top flight at the end of the last season. And with them having a poor h2h record as well over the years – expect a win for hosts LASK.
Lustenau conceded two or more goals in five of their last six road trips, and only two teams let in more goals than them in away fixtures.
Moreover, they conceded ten goals from the past four h2h meetings combined, and let in two or more goals in six of the former seven h2h clashes at this ground as well.
As such, goals are expected quite in plenty this weekend.
LASK have been impressively dominant at home for almost the whole of past year, and are yet to let in a goal at this stadium this new year. It is a doubt if that streak would be broken this weekend.
LASK have always been one of the titans of the Austrian top flight, and they are in the running for a podium finish this season as well. They are also on a long stretch of great performances at home, that has been going on for close to a year.
On the other hand, Lustenau are a team that were promoted at the end of the last season, and they last managed to win on the road back in August. And most of all, they have a worrying h2h record against this rival over the years.
Likely, a -1.5 Asian Handicap on LASK would be a great pick, at an odd of 2.15.
Going on, Lustenau let in two or more goals in nine of their previous fourteen overall games, as well as in six of their past seven road trips. Also, only two teams let in more goals than them on the road this time around in the Austrian Bundesliga, while their counterparts scored the most at home.
As such, LASK are expected to score at least three goals against their struggling guests this Friday. And the odds for the same are placed at 2.50.
