Both sides come into the fixture with contrasting recent fortunes – Altach have shown they can score, Hartberg have struggled to break the dead‑lock. The clash pits Altach's home scoring firepower against a Hartberg defence that has conceded once per game on the road.

Lars's Verdict

Strong
Over 2.5 goals Won Strong lean Strong · High over chance

The model assigns an 80.5% probability to more than 2.5 goals, driven by Altach's 3.0 xG at home and Hartberg's 1.35 xG on the road.

Show the maths
Altach's expected goals of 3.0 at home combined with Hartberg's 1.35 away gives a total expected goal count of 4.35. The model translates that aggregate xG into an 80.5% chance of the total exceeding 2.5 goals. The over‑2.5 probability far outstrips the under‑2.5 likelihood of 19.5%, confirming a clear skew toward a goal‑rich encounter.
Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score — Yes Won 70.1% model probability

With SCR Altach averaging 3.0 expected goals and TSV Hartberg averaging 1.35, the model gives a 70.1% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 29.9% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths
BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (SCR Altach 3.0, TSV Hartberg 1.35) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 70.1% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 29.9% where at least one side is shut out.
Pick 3 · Total Goals
Over 2.5 Goals Won 80.5% model probability

Combined expected goals of 4.3 (SCR Altach 3.0 + TSV Hartberg 1.35) points to an open game, with the model giving Over 2.5 Goals a 80.5% chance against 19.5% for Under.

Show the maths
Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (SCR Altach 3.0 + TSV Hartberg 1.35 = 4.3 combined): 80.5% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 19.5% finishing with 2 or fewer.
Match Result Model

Form Guide — Last 5

SCR Altach

LWL

Altach's recent league form reads L‑W‑L, highlighted by a 0‑1 loss to Rapid Vienna away, a 3‑1 home win over WSG Wattens, and a 0‑1 defeat at Sturm Graz. Scoring three against Wattens shows they can hit the 3‑goal mark, which supports the expectation of multiple goals in this game.

TSV Hartberg

LL

Hartberg have recorded two consecutive league defeats: 0‑1 away at Red Bull Salzburg and 0‑2 at home to Sturm Graz. Both matches ended without Hartberg scoring, underscoring their current lack of offensive output but not offsetting Altach's firepower for the over‑2.5 goal outlook.

Head-to-Head

In the last five meetings, there have been four draws (0‑0, 2‑2, 1‑1, 0‑0) and a single Hartberg 2‑0 win, indicating generally tight games but also the capacity for multiple goals, aligning with the over‑2.5 prediction.
