⭐ Editor's Pick
Both teams have updated their squads, and there are cohesion issues at the start of the season. Wolfsberg are the stronger side on paper and have more experience at the top level, but this is their first away match in the league, and it remains to be seen whether they will change their approach or continue to rely on their strengths - attacking play above all. Both teams to score (yes) landed in seven head-to-head matches between these sides in the Bundesliga. Given that and the personnel changes at both clubs, goals from each team are quite expected. Predicted score - 1:2.
