The Bundesliga calendar brings us a fascinating encounter on November 23, 2025, as Sturm Graz welcome LASK to Merkur Arena for a match that could have serious implications for the league table. In this Sturm Graz vs LASK prediction, we dive into recent form, tactical setups, head to head stats, and the latest betting odds to help you make informed sports betting decisions.
Sturm Graz and LASK enter this fixture with contrasting momentum. LASK have hit their stride, stringing together five consecutive wins and remaining unbeaten in their last six matches across all competitions. This purple patch has seen them average 1.67 goals per game while conceding just 0.5—a testament to their defensive discipline and attacking efficiency. Despite this, LASK find themselves in the middle of the Bundesliga standings, around 6th or 7th place, suggesting that consistency over the season has been a challenge.
On the other hand, Sturm Graz are searching for answers. Winless in their last six outings (three draws, three defeats), their attack has struggled to ignite, netting just 0.83 goals per match during this period, while their defense has been breached 1.47 times per game. Yet, thanks to a strong start, Sturm Graz still sit in 3rd place, with a record of 7 wins, 1 draw, and 4 losses from 12 matches.
When it comes to tactical setups, expect Sturm Graz to stick with their trusted 4-2-3-1 formation, which has provided a solid structure even during tough spells. LASK, meanwhile, will likely continue with their effective 3-4-1-2, a system that has underpinned their recent unbeaten run and allowed them to balance defense and attack.
Both squads are dealing with injuries. Sturm Graz have a lengthy list of absentees, including Fally Mayulu, Lovro Zvonarek, Max Johnston, and Alexandar Borkovic. Key contributors like Otar Kiteishvili (5 goals, 2 assists) and Maurice Malone (13 shots on goal) will need to step up. LASK are missing Art Smakaj and Maximilian Entrup, but Samuel Adeniran (3 goals) and Sascha Horvath (2 assists) remain threats.
On the sidelines, Jürgen Säumel leads Sturm Graz, while Dietmar Kühbauer has recently taken the reins at LASK. Both managers have contracts running until 2027, signaling long-term faith in their projects.
For those interested in sports betting, the betting odds paint a clear picture: Sturm Graz are favorites at 2.05 for a home win, with a draw at 3.65 and an away win for LASK at 3.65. The home side’s squad value (€53.08m) dwarfs that of LASK (€32.75m), underlining their status as favorites.
The numbers support a cautious approach: Sturm Graz are expected to control 59% of possession and take 15 shots (4 on target), while LASK may have 41% possession and 10 shots (3 on target). Corners are forecast at 4 for the hosts and 3 for the visitors, with just one yellow card each anticipated—a sign of a disciplined contest.
Interestingly, while LASK’s recent form is superior, the Sturm Graz vs LASK prediction leans towards the home side, thanks to their strong head to head record and home advantage. The AI’s under 3.65 goals tip is supported by both teams’ recent scoring trends—Sturm Graz’s attack is struggling, and LASK’s defense is solid. The predicted 1:0 scoreline reflects a match where chances may be at a premium.
To sum up, this fixture is a classic example of form versus history. LASK arrive in Graz brimming with confidence, but Sturm Graz’s home record and superior squad depth make them tough to bet against. If you’re looking for value in the sports betting markets, under 3.65 goals at 1.47 looks like a solid option, while backing Sturm Graz to avoid defeat (1X) at 1.29 could also appeal to more cautious punters.
