[Tips]:
Sturm Graz suffered a crushing 5-0 defeat to FK Bodo/Glimt in the first leg, placing them in a poor situation for qualification.
The team's recent defense has been flawed, and they performed underwhelmingly at home in the new season.
However, their attack is still reliable.
FK Bodo/Glimt have been in overwhelming recent form, remaining undefeated in 10 consecutive competitive games and securing 8 victories.
They boast excellent offense and defense, performing strongly on the road as well.
However, FK Bodo/Glimt are tied with their rivals behind them in points in the league, with no positive prospects of winning the title.
With a 5-goal lead, the team will surely focus on the league.
The AH line is also not in favor of FK Bodo/Glimt in this game.
Thus, Sturm Graz are expected to perform well in this match.
