After Sturm Graz was knocked out in the UEFA Champions League qualification by Fenerbahce, the first home game of the Bundesliga season takes place on Saturday at 7:30 PM. Their opponent is SCR Altach, considered a favored rival for the Graz team, which has been unbeaten against the Vorarlbergers in ten consecutive league matches.
The match is of great significance for Sturm Graz, particularly after the team suffered a bitter defeat last week. However, the Vorarlbergers have announced that they have meticulously prepared for the match and aim to break the Grazers' streak.
In recent years, Sturm Graz has maintained a strong record against Altach but faced a painful defeat in the cup during the winter. This current situation adds extra pressure on both teams.
SCR Altach comes in as the underdog and hopes to achieve an upset under the leadership of former coach Fabio Ingolitsch. The team has the opportunity to showcase their form and break their current streak of defeats.
In the second match of Saturday, Austria Lustenau will host Wolfsberger AC at 5:00 PM. Both games will be broadcast live on Sky and promise exciting encounters in the new season.
