Rapid Vienna recently played in the quarterfinals of the Conference League, but is now in danger of missing out on participating in the tournament next season. They lost 1:3 in the first match as guests of LASK and now have to catch up at home in the rematch. Rapid has been performing much better at home this season and managed to defeat Sturm 3:1 in their last home game. However, they have been unsuccessful in their last nine meetings against LASK.
Overall, LASK Linz seems to be in better form with 9 wins in their last 12 league matches. They lost one of them as guests of Grazer, but it was already insignificant for the team. Before that loss, they had four consecutive away wins. Since 2019, they have not won as guests of Rapid, but their last four visits against this opponent ended in a draw.
Prediction: Rapid winRapid Vienna has to catch up with a recent opponent. I don't know if they will be able to close the two-goal gap, but I think they will at least win the rematch on their home turf.
