Wattens have been more up and down. Away wins at Austria Vienna and Lustenau were followed by losses to Altach and Salzburg, then a draw at Hartberg, before a 3-0 beating at Rapid Vienna in their last outing.

Both sides have conceded regularly this season, so a tight, low-margin game feels less likely than one with goals in it.
