Wolfsberger top the Relegation section of the Austrian Bundesliga by 2pts and face a trip to 6th-placed Ried on Friday.

Contents
Wolfsberger Double Chance
Our first Ried vs Wolfsberger prediction is for an away win or draw. Wolfsberger have picked up three wins, three draws and suffered just one defeat in their last seven meetings with Ried, and we're backing the visitors to avoid defeat on Friday night. The home side have lost two and drawn five of their last seven outings in the Bundesliga, while Wolfsberger have picked up three wins and three draws from their last six league games, so you can see why we're backing the away side to secure at least a draw on Friday.
Under 2.5 Goals
Our second Ried vs Wolfsberger prediction concerns the total goals scored by both teams. We're not expecting any kind of goal-fest when Ried entertain Wolfsberger on Friday, instead predicting under 2.5 goals to be scored. The last two meetings between these clubs have produced fewer than three goals, while four of Ried's and four of Wolfsberger's last seven outings have also witnessed under 2.5 goals.

Ried vs Wolfsberger Lineups and Last Match
Ried
Ried made the trip to Hartberg at the weekend where they slipped to a 2-0 defeat. The Ried players put in a good effort in the first half which ended goalless but two strikes in the space of 10 second-half minutes won the game for the home side. Ziegl had to come off in the first half to be replaced by Wiesinger while Gragger only lasted 56-minutes and both could be replaced in the starting lineup on Friday.
Predicted Lineup – Şahin-Radlinger (GK), Lackner, Turi, Gragger, Wiesinger, Pomer, Ungar, Madritsch, Diomandé, Mikić & Lang
Wolfsberger
Wolfsberger made light work of Tirol at the weekend. Ballo scored two goals in the first-half which ended any realistic hopes the visitors had of getting anything out of this difficult away trip. The league leaders didn't pick up any injuries against Tirol and should have a clean bill of health and no suspended players ahead of the trip to Ried on Friday.
Predicted Lineup – Bonmann (GK), Piesinger, Novak, Scherzer, Baumgartner, Oermann, Leitgeb, Ballo, Omić, Boakye & Malone

Player to Watch: Tai Baribo
Wolfsberger's Israeli striker has improved this season with 14-goals in the Bundesliga compared to the 11 he scored in the last campaign for the Austrian side.
Wolfsberger will avoid relegation this season but will want to see another big performance from Baribo on Friday night in what is a potentially tricky trip to Ried. Baribo hasn't been in the best form of late and is really due a goal having only scored two in his last nine league games for Wolfsberger.
The last time these two sides met, a single goal proved enough for Wolfsberger to claim all 3pts and the hosts will be happy with the same outcome on Friday and Baribo will be desperate to score the winning goal.
