Shock for Altach: 1: 1 against Hartberg! Descent battle remains exciting!

On Holy Saturday, April 19, 2025, an exciting but winless weekend took place in the struggle for relegation in the Austrian Bundesliga. In an intensive duel, the SCR Altach separated from TSV Hartberg 1-1, after the Altacher initially took the lead and gave them out in the final phase of the game. This means that Altach remains the bottom of the league.

In the parallel game in Klagenfurt, a goalless encounter occurred between Austria Klagenfurt and the GAK. The extensive division of the lower table region is made clear by the fact that there are only five points between five teams, while the LASK, who was able to open a 2-0 win against WSG Tyrol on Friday, moved away from the relegation zone with a comfortable lead of ten points on Hartberg.

relegation in focus

The current table shows Hartberg with 17 points on the 9th place, followed by Austria Klagenfurt with 14 points and WSG Tirol and GAK, both of whom are on 13 points. SCR Altach, with only 12 points, is still in acute relegation risk. The league is still hotly contested, and in the remaining six rounds will decide which teams will have to go to the second division.

In the master group, exciting encounters are on the program on Sunday. The WAC meets Rapid and leaders Sturm Graz plays against Blau-Weiß Linz. The evening game between Austria Vienna and Red Bull Salzburg also promises a lot of excitement and could have an impact on the championship.
