Austria’s Bundesliga is a twelve-club league with one of the smallest home advantages of any league we track. It scores a lot, it draws a fair amount, and visiting teams do better here than in most places. The table below holds the league’s tips from an outside prediction provider, shown as published.
The figures use 1,149 matches since the start of 2021, from public results files. They cover goals and results, not corners or cards, so we’ll say plainly where our data stops.

More Predictions
The league in numbers
| Measure | Austria | Average of 18 European leagues |
|---|---|---|
| Goals a match | 2.81 | 2.69 |
| Over 2.5 goals | 54.1% | 50.7% |
| Both teams scored | 55.2% | 52.7% |
| Home win | 40.2% | 43.5% |
| Draw | 27.0% | 26.2% |
| Away win | 32.8% | 30.3% |
Matches averaged 2.81 goals and over 2.5 landed in 54.1%. Both teams scored in 55.2%, a little above the European average. About 7% of matches ended 0-0.
A small home edge
Home teams won only 40.2% of matches, the lowest rate of any league in our data, and away teams won 32.8%. The home side scored 1.50 goals a match and the visitors 1.30, a gap of just 0.20 goals.
By season the home win rate ran 40.5%, 38.5%, 38.5%, 36.4%, 42.2% and 42.2%, never rising above 43%. In the Premier League, La Liga or the Scottish Premiership, the home side wins more than 44% of the time. In Austria, a visiting favourite is a more realistic proposition than in most leagues.
Goals by season
Goals have been steady with one dip. Per season they ran 2.89, 2.96, 2.58, 2.75 and 2.70, and the current season has started higher, with 3.17 across 54 matches, though that’s too few to tell us much. Everything is between 2.5 and 3.0.
Scorelines
The most common score was 1-1 at 12.5%, then 2-1 (9.0%), 1-0 (7.5%) and 1-2 (7.4%). 0-0 came fifth at 7.1%. The home side failed to score in 24.1% of matches and the away side in 27.9%.
How reliable are favourites?
We worked out the favourite from the closing price with the margin removed:
| Favourite’s chance at the price | Matches | Favourite won |
|---|---|---|
| Under 45% | 437 | 38.2% |
| 45% to 55% | 353 | 48.2% |
| 55% to 65% | 198 | 57.6% |
| 65% or more | 161 | 74.5% |
The prices held up. A strong favourite won about three matches in four, and a weak one only a little more than a third. A favourite priced at 65% or more won 74.5%, a little below the roughly 77% for European favourites at that price.
Both teams scoring
BTTS landed in 55.2% of matches. That follows from the scoring rates of the two sides. The home side scored in 75.9% of matches (100% minus the 24.1% it was blanked) and the away side in 72.1%. Multiply the two and you get about 54.7%, close to the actual figure.
It’s a useful check: in a league where both teams score in roughly three matches out of four, both scoring in just over half of them is what you’d expect.
Draws and covers
Draws were 27.0% of matches, a little above the European average, and they moved a lot: 23.8%, 31.3%, 25.6%, 30.3%, 26.0% and 26.0% over the last six seasons. A season-to-season swing of seven points isn’t unusual.
Adding results together gives the covers. Home win or draw landed in 67.2% of matches (40.2% plus 27.0%), away win or draw in 59.8% and either team winning in 73.0%. The away cover is stronger here than in most leagues, and the home cover weaker.
When the matches are played
Sunday carries 46.9% of the league’s matches and Saturday 40.7%, so almost nine matches in ten fall at the weekend. The weekday rounds are rare.
Corners and cards
We don’t have corner or card figures for Austria. Football-data’s Austrian file has results and prices only, so we can’t tell you how many corners a typical match has or how strict the referees are, and we won’t guess. If you bet on those lines, use the general rules on our corner and card pages and check the referee.
Five rules for Austrian tips
- Don’t assume the home side. 40.2% home wins is low.
- Use the cover on the visitors. Away teams win nearly a third of the time.
- Lean slightly to goals. Over 2.5 starts at 54.1%.
- Trust strong prices. A 65% favourite won 74.5%.
- Say no to the unknown. If the league doesn’t have the data for a bet, leave it.
Common mistakes
The first is treating Austria like Germany. The goals are similar, but the home edge is much smaller.
The second is assuming the home team is the favourite. Prices for visitors can be perfectly fair here.
The third is leaning on one season’s numbers. The goal rate has moved by a third of a goal between seasons.
Questions people ask
How many clubs are in the Austrian Bundesliga? Twelve.
How many goals per match? 2.81 on average since 2021.
How often do both teams score? 55.2% of matches.

Where are other leagues? See Germany and the Europe page.
Tips are estimates, not promises. You must be 18 or over to bet, and a stake should be money you can afford to lose.
