SK Sturm still have a score to settle with Feyenoord Rotterdam today (9 p.m., ServusTV). Now the cards are being reshuffled, after a 1-0 win against Midtjylland and a 0-0 draw against Lazio, Graz are still without a losing goal at home.
Even with league leaders Salzburg (0-0), the solid defense was solid. “Now there is an opportunity to do better. We will do everything we can to use it,” said coach Christian Ilzer, whose “Blackys” have been unbeaten since the aforementioned 0:6 on September 15th. After that there were five wins and three draws. “In that sense, it was something of a forward failure.”
In the Europa Conference League, Wiener Austria needs a win over Lech Posen today (6.45 p.m., ORF 1) in order to maintain the minimal chance of promotion. “We passed the character test against LASK (2:2 away, note), we were also the better team at 1:4 in Poland 60 minutes,” coach Manfred Schmid is confident. However, Austria has been waiting for twelve games and almost five years for complete success in international business.
