Table stands and outlook

In the current table, Altach, after a 1-1 draw against GAK, takes third place. GAK remains in ninth place in four games in four games. The current account of both teams points out that Hartberg and Rapid are currently the forms of the league. The criteria for placement in the league are clearly structured and include direct duels and goal difference, which is of the greatest importance for the teams when it comes to qualifying for European competitions.

The SK Rapid, founded in 1897 and known as the green-whites, has won 32 championship titles in the past and is one of the figureheads of Austrian football. The club history is characterized by success in both national and international competition, even if it has become more difficult to keep the top position in recent years. However, the current developments and the latest victory could be a turning point for the team that was once associated with legends like Steffen Hofmann and Michael Konsel.
