Rapid Wien vs Vaduz Prediction

The first leg was relatively dull with both teams playing cautiously. Vaduz held on for large swathes despite having just one-third of possession throughout the game. Their reliance on sharp counter-attacks forced Rapid to opt for a more conventional approach.

Rapid undoubtedly showed more guile in the first leg and will now hope to complete the job in familiar surroundings for the return leg. They possess the better of the two squads as they seek to seal their place in the UEFA Conference League group stage. A win for the hosts is on the cards.

Prediction: Rapid Wien 3-1 Vaduz
