Rapid Vienna vs Tirol Prediction: Vienna are in top form

Rapid Vienna will play Tirol in round 3 of the Austrian Bundesliga League at Allianz Stadion. Let’s preview this game and make predictions.

Rapid Vienna are coming off a 2-0 win over Trabzonspor in the Europa League. Rapid Vienna was held to a goalless draw at halftime in that encounter. However, the second-half goals of Matthias Seidi and Christoph Lang were good enough to seal the win for them. In the meantime, prior league games to this encounter saw Rapid Vienna being held to a 1-1 draw by Austria Klagenfurt. Rapid Vienna heads into this game with an unbeaten run of 11 games.

Tirol will hope for a win after losing to Bayern Munich in their last league game. Tirol conceded just three minutes into the game in that encounter, with Harry Kane putting their opponent in the lead. However, goals from Joao Palhinha and Gabriel Vidovic were what their opponent needed to defeat them. However, it is important to note that Tirol did not lose any of their first two league games, as they were held to a goalless draw by Grazer AK while defeating Altach. 

Tirol have been decent in the league this season, and they will feel confident they can get things right here despite being on the road. However, Rapid Vienna has been unbeatable this season, and against tough opponents, they have also secured maximum points. While they have a better squad and play at a high level, I do not see Tirol having a chance in this game. Also, with the host having a good defense line, a 2-0 win looks like a possible scoreline, as I expect Tirol to focus on defensive play.
