Defensively stable!

Austria conceded only 22 goals in the first 18 rounds, only Salzburg (12) conceded fewer.

A tight story!

No team played more draws (9 times) than Austria. Only Salzburg suffered fewer defeats than Violett (5). The Violets never lost by more than one goal difference. That's why Austria has the fourth best goal difference after Salzburg, Sturm and WAC.

All nine!

With six goals and three assists, Marco Djuricin is the top scorer in our ranks.

GEPA

Fit to the end!

Austria scored seven goals in the final quarter of an hour - while conceding only three.

GEPA

Cross!

No team scored more goals from crosses than Austria - ten in all. Markus Suttner crossed the most often (52 times, 5th in the Bundesliga behind Kristensen, Koch, Liendl and Behounek).

GEPA

Tackled!

No other Bundesliga player made more successful tackles than Eric Martel, namely 53.

GEPA

Intercepted!

Eric Martel and Lukas Mühl share fourth place in the Bundesliga with 38 intercepted balls each, behind Stankovic, Wüthrich and Boller.

GEPA

Lightning start!

The Violets scored in the first minute two games in a row (Matchday 17 and 18) - the first time in Bundesliga history. Austria had previously only scored two goals in the first minute in a Bundesliga season in 1976/77 and 1984/85.
