Recent form

Sturm Graz

Sturm Graz have shown impressive form in recent matches, particularly in their last two outings where they've scored an outstanding 10 goals, thrashing both Grazer AK and Red Bull Salzburg 5-2 and 5-0 respectively. These high-scoring affairs have significantly boosted their goal average, with the team now scoring an impressive 2.33 goals per game over their last six matches. Despite a couple of setbacks, including a narrow 1-0 loss to Club Brugge in the Champions League, Sturm Graz have managed to secure three wins in their last six games. Their attacking prowess is evident, with 83% of their recent matches seeing over 2.5 goals, providing exciting, high-scoring football for their fans. However, their defence could use some improvement, as they've only managed one clean sheet in this period and have conceded an average of 1.5 goals per game.

Sporting CP

Sporting CP are in fine form, currently enjoying an impressive 27-game unbeaten streak across all competitions. The Lisbon giants have been particularly dominant in their last six matches, securing five wins and a draw whilst showcasing a potent attack and a rock-solid defence. They've netted 13 goals in this period, averaging an impressive 2.17 goals per game, whilst conceding just twice. Their defensive prowess is further highlighted by four clean sheets in these six matches. The team's goal difference of +11 in this span is testament to their overall superiority. Notably, Sporting have been consistent in their scoring, with no particularly high-scoring outliers, but their 3-0 victories against both Estoril and AVS demonstrate their capability to dominate opponents. The draw against PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League stands out as the only slight blemish in an otherwise perfect run, but even that result away from home in Europe's elite competition is commendable.

Sturm Graz

Sturm Graz have shown impressive form at home, with four wins in their last six matches, including a particularly notable 5-0 thrashing of Red Bull Salzburg in the Bundesliga.

Notably, Sturm Graz have experienced two runs of consecutive results: a two-match winning streak in their most recent fixtures, and a two-match losing streak prior to that.
