At Tynecastle Park, Hearts have kept a steady scoring habit in their recent home games: 6-2 against Inverness CT, 4-0 against Dundee Utd and 1-1 with Benfica. Away from Edinburgh the level dropped, with 1-6 in Lisbon and 1-2 at Aberdeen, yet the Scottish side found the net in all five of those outings. Rapid Vienna have won their last five: 8-0 against Grazer AK, 4-1 and 2-0 with Paide, 2-1 at Ried, 1-0 over Altach. The Austrians gave up only two goals in that spell, which sets an attack that always turns up against a defence in good order. Neither club has faced the other before. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one. The data and assessments here are provided for information and statistical purposes.
