Sturm Graz Set to Limit Grazer AK Scoring

Sturm Graz have kept three clean sheets in eight league games and concede only 0.7 goals a game at home. Grazer AK average 0.5 goals scored in their away fixtures and failed to score in five of eight league matches. The visitors have lost every one of the last six meetings with their opponents. Their recent unbeaten run of five games has not included tough away tests like this one. Sturm Graz score 1.3 goals a game on home soil and will look to control the tempo from the start. Grazer AK sit seventh after eight matches and show a clear drop in output when travelling. The key test will be how the visitors handle Sturm Graz pressing high up the pitch at Merkur-Arena.
