Prediction
In our view, FC Blau-Weiss Linz can get a lot of shots on goal and make them count.
Conversely, Union Gurten might well find it a difficult task to get goals of their own, although we do think that it’s probable they’ll be being dangerous for periods.
Our selection here is for a pretty comfortable 1-3 victory for FC Blau-Weiss Linz at full-time.
