Prediction Amstetten vs Wolfsberger AC 2025/2026 – Betting Tips for the Austrian Cup on 29/10/2025

Match preview: Cup fever in Amstetten

Round of 16 cup drama comes to the Ertl Glas-Stadion on 29 October as Amstetten welcome Wolfsberger AC in what promises to be a lively contest. The small stadium in Amstetten — capacity 3,000 — will host a clash between a side in solid second‑division form and a Bundesliga outfit carrying momentum from a string of convincing wins. For Amstetten, recent league results have been encouraging: a 2-0 victory away at Schwarz-Weiß Bregenz and a pair of 3-0 and 3-1 home wins have shown they can be clinical at times. Their latest ten-match form reads W-D-D-W-W-D-W-D-L-D, a run that blends resilience with a tendency to pick up points.

Wolfsberger AC arrive with an even more bullish sequence: their recent ten includes six wins and only two draws and two losses. They hit the back of the net repeatedly in previous games — notably a 6-0 away demolition earlier in the season — and despite a setback in the league last time out (a 1-2 reverse to Ried), their attacking numbers remain eye-catching. Dejan Zukic was highlighted with a strong rating in Wolfsberger’s last outing, while Amstetten’s recent victory saw David Peham earn best player recognition.

Key stats and tactical reading

Numbers paint an interesting picture. Amstetten generate a healthy share of chances: 34 total shots in the sample with 13 on target, averaging 17 shots across venues, and an average of 8 corners. They have scored both at home and away this season, and their matches show a 50% rate for both teams scoring. Wolfsberger, meanwhile, display clinical finishing on the road — an impressive tally of 9 away goals in the available data — and they average 15 shots on target from 25 total attempts. Their attacks average 107.5 suggests they commit to forward play, while Amstetten’s attacks average 93.5 underlines their willingness to press and create in front of the home crowd.

Head-to-head history is limited but informative: Wolfsberger beat Amstetten 2-0 in a friendly earlier this year, indicating they can impose themselves when they visit.

Prediction and betting tip

Expect an open, attacking tie. Amstetten will be brave at home and are capable of producing goals, while Wolfsberger’s away record and shot volume suggest they will test the visitors’ defence. Given the attacking tendencies on both sides, the clearest value lies with the goal market rather than a straight match-winner pick. The recommended stake is on the goals market:

Betting suggestion: Goal market — Over 1.5 goals.

Reasoning: Wolfsberger’s high away goal output and strong shots-on-target numbers combined with Amstetten’s recent scoring form make a low-scoring affair unlikely. Over 1.5 goals offers sensible value in a cup tie where both teams have shown they can find the net. Confidence: moderate.
