Austria Klagenfurt vs Hartberg prediction 23.05.2025 | Bundesliga

• Competition: Bundesliga
• Date: Friday, 23rd May 2025
• Kickoff: 18:30 UK / 19:30 CEST
• Venue: Wörthersee Stadion (Klagenfurt)

Only one game left in the season and Austria Klagenfurt needs a victory on Friday against Hartberg to even have a chance of staying in the Austrian Bundesliga. The team from Wörthersee Stadion had some solid moments of the season, but the last couple of rounds were brutal. Austria Klagenfurt won only three points in the last eight matches. One of those three points came in the previous match, when Carsten Jancker's team played 0-0 on the road against Altach. The guests created more in that game (1.20 xG to 0.38), but again had a problem finding a way to the net. 

Hartberg's season will last a little longer as they will participate in the Conference League playoff next week. Hartberg can't move on the table in the final round, so the head coach, Manfred Schmid, could decide to rest a few players in the upcoming tie. Hartberg are playing well lately, as they are undefeated in the previous three matches. Last weekend, Schmid's team won 3-2 at home against Tirol. Although the home side dominated in that game, they needed the goal from the second half's stoppage time to secure all three points. 

Austria Klagenfurt vs Hartberg pick: Under 2.5 goals

Austria Klagenfurt scored two goals in the last four matches. On the other hand, Hartberg allowed only four goals in the previous five games. We shouldn't expect more than two goals in the upcoming tie.
