A battle for early-season continental positioning sees fourth-place Sturm Graz host sixth-place SCR Altach at the Merkur Arena.
Sturm Graz have enjoyed a solid start to the campaign, picking up four points from their first two matches to sit fourth in the Bundesliga. They currently hold a continental qualification place and enter this fixture with momentum, having secured four victories from their last six league outings across the end of last term and the start of this one.
SCR Altach sit just one point behind their hosts in sixth place, likewise occupying a continental spot at this early stage. However, their away form remains a concern, with the side suffering defeat in half of their two most recent league matches on the road.
