  • Slovan Bratislava have won only two of their last eight UEFA club competition matches at home (D4 L2).
  • Slovan Bratislava have not failed to score in their last 21 UEFA club competition matches.
  • Slovan have won four out of 15 UEFA competition ties in which they have lost the first leg away from home, they have never recovered more than a one-goal deficit and have been eliminated on the four occasions when they have lost a first leg away from home by a margin of three goals or more.
  • Sturm Graz have lost seven of their last nine UEFA competition matches away from home (W1 D1).
  • Sturm Graz have lost only two of their last ten matches in all competitions (W5 D3).

THE PREDICTION

Slovan Bratislava reached the Round of 16 of this competition last season but they will have to go some to repeat that this time around. The Slovakian champions were hammered 4-1 by Sturm Graz in Austria last week but did react well to hammer Zlate Moravce by the same score line a few days later. Sturm Graz are the closest challengers to Red Bull Salzburg in the Austrian Bundesliga and will pose teams a genuine test. Slovan Bratislava are expected to score at home but overturning the first-leg deficit is extremely unlikely.

TIP: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE
