⭐ Editor's Prediction
Both sides have shown a good level of organisation in attack and defence, but the main threat comes from LASK's forward line - as confirmed by the visitors' form and their scoring statistics over recent months. The trend of Total Goals - Over 2.5 has come in almost every time in matches involving the visitors; a similar pattern holds for the individual team total of the more attack-minded side in this tie - LASK have consistently scored at least twice in almost every match over the recent period, regardless of the opponent or venue. The editors' pick is LASK Team Total - Over 1.5. Predicted score: 1-3.
