Preview of the home match against Blau-Weiß Linz

After the international break, the Violets are back on the hunt for points this weekend. On Saturday, they will face FC Blau Weiß Linz/Union Kleinmünchen at home in the Generali-Arena. The hoped-for three points would be important to keep up with the league leaders from St. Pölten. Kick-off is on Saturday at 1 pm.

The league break is over and the championship continues. After the long journey to Vorarlberg for the Violets' last league clash, the journey on Saturday will be much shorter. The home match against Blau Weiß Linz/Union Kleinmünchen will take place on Saturday at 13:00 in the Generali-Arena.

4-1 win in the first half of the season

The violet women remain in second place in the table - two points behind serial champions St. Pölten. Vienna's defeat last time out also widened the gap to their rivals in third place to five points.

Although the Violets won the first leg 4-1 away from home, the Upper Austrians have a strong record in recent matches. They have recently won three out of four championship duels.

‘It will be a difficult task for us’

Head coach Stefan Kenesei is also aware that Blau-Weiß Linz have put in a strong performance recently and warns against underestimating them: ‘Blau-Weiß Linz may be a team from the bottom half of the table when they come to Vienna, but if you look purely at the table for the second half of the season, you can see that they have performed strongly and scored points recently. Every one of us must be warned about this team. It will be a difficult task for us and we have to continue to work hard and be humble.’

Kick-off is on Saturday at 1 pm. Tickets are available on site in the fan shop or online at fak.at/tickets. Children up to their 15th birthday can attend our home games for just 5 Euro. As always, season ticket holders have free entry with their season ticket. The match will also be broadcast live on ÖFB TV.

Immediately after the final whistle, the Viola Pub will also open, where the men's away game at GAK will be broadcast live from 5 pm.
