Prediction SVG Reichenau vs Wolfsberger AC 2025/2026 – Betting Tips for the Austrian Cup on 16/09/2025

Preview: Cup clash under the lights in Innsbruck

An intriguing second-round Austrian Cup tie awaits at the Kunstrasen Reichenau Hauptspielfeld on 16 September, where Regionalliga outfit SVG Reichenau will host Bundesliga side Wolfsberger AC. The setting is modest — a 1,500-capacity ground in Innsbruck — but cup nights have a habit of amplifying atmosphere, and Reichenau will be buoyed by recent home form that includes a 3-2 victory at Schwaz. Wolfsberger arrive with momentum of their own after a convincing 3-1 league win over Salzburg, and the contrast in trajectories sets the stage for an entertaining mismatch.

Form and recent results

SVG Reichenau’s last five results paint an up-and-down picture: they earned a tidy 3-2 win at Schwaz on 12 September but have also suffered a couple of heavy defeats in recent weeks. Their 10-match form string shows four wins and six losses, suggesting a side capable of sparking on the day but also vulnerable in consistency. Wolfsberger AC, conversely, have been the steadier unit, compiling six wins, two draws and just two defeats across their most recent ten outings. The visitors’ recent 3-1 success over Salzburg featured a standout display, with Dejan Zukic earning praise as his side’s best performer in that fixture.

How the numbers shape the contest

Statistically this cup tie leans toward an open game. Reichenau’s attacking output and shot volume in recent fixtures — highlighted by a total shots figure of 20 and 13 on target in one reported set — suggest they are willing to commit players forward. Wolfsberger’s metrics show a slightly lower total shots count in the snapshot provided but still effective finishing and dangerous attacking averages. Both teams’ recent matches have tended to produce goals; the datasets indicate 100% on over 2.5 in the samples given, and both sides have been involved in fixtures where both teams found the net. That bodes well for an entertaining, goal-populated cup tie, rather than a tight, cagey affair.

Prediction and betting tip

Wolfsberger AC arrive as the clear favourites on form and quality of recent opponents. Their confident 3-1 victory over Salzburg is a strong indicator that they’re functioning well offensively and defensively, while Reichenau’s results suggest capable flashes but also defensive fragility. Expect Wolfsberger to control large portions of the tie, but Reichenau’s willingness to attack at home and the cup format could produce goals at both ends.

Betting suggestion: 1X2 — Back Wolfsberger AC to win.
