Predictions & Betting Tips

LASK top Altach by 20 points

LASK are 20 points ahead of Altach in the Bundesliga Relegation Group 2025 standings and it’s no surprise to find them the strong favorites to win Friday’s match. Our LASK Linz vs SC Rheindorf Altach prediction is that LASK, who are top of the standings with 37 points from 31 games, will continue to dominate, while Altach remain fifth with just 17 points from the same number of games. Maximilian Ritscher has done a good job since taking over in late April 2025, giving the side a bold, high-tempo identity with plenty of pressing and width. LASK can be a very potent attacking force when their creative players, such as Keito Nakamura, find the space to operate and they are not afraid to go gung-ho. This will be a clash of styles with Altach much more structured and looking to stay compact and counter-attack when they can. According to the LASK Linz vs SC Rheindorf Altach preview, Fabio Ingolitsch took over as head coach in October 2024 and the basic approach hasn’t changed much, with Altach remaining a disciplined, defensive side that are happy to soak up pressure for long periods and hit on the counter.

Altach’s away record has been poor

This fixture has tended to be tight in recent years, with both sides averaging 1.0 goals when LASK have hosted Altach in league competition, but there are enough reasons to side with the hosts here. This LASK Linz vs SC Rheindorf Altach prediction is further supported by recent results. LASK have won two of the last three meetings, including a 2-0 away win seven weeks ago in this very competition, and are unbeaten in their last two home games, winning one and drawing the other. The form book tells us Altach have failed to win in their two previous Bundesliga 2025 away matches in this relegation group. The visitors have won only three of their 15 away games this season, drawing two and losing ten. LASK are a superior side and have a better record, so it is no surprise to see them +160 favorites for this clash. We like those odds as well, but based on the LASK Linz vs SC Rheindorf Altach betting tips available, we also feel there is more value to be had in going with ‘LASK to shut out’ because of the superior firepower of the hosts.

Maxi Entrup has been in fine form

Maximilian Entrup has been in great form for LASK with five goals in nine Bundesliga Relegation Group 2025 appearances and four in the last five games. Keito Nakamura adds creativity and pace to the attack while Tobias Lawal is a reliable shot-stopper and commander of the penalty area. The LASK Linz vs SC Rheindorf Altach prediction also considers Altach’s lower scoring rate and their defensive orientation. Altach have been scoring goals at a much lower rate and will probably need to pinch one to get something from this game, which is likely to be a test of LASK’s patience. Atdhe Nuhiu provides the physicality and experience at the base of Altach’s midfield, but they are going to have to be at their best to get on the scoresheet and, when Christian Gebauer has led the line for them, they have managed just one goal in five appearances at this stage of the season. Jungdal keeps Altach in games with his reliable goalkeeping and they could make a game of it for a time, but we expect LASK to eventually make the breakthrough and win the game.
