Vienna Hosts Horn for Sunday Matinee
After the international break, league action returns. On Sunday morning, First Vienna FC 1894 invites fans to a special matinee at the Naturarena Hohe Warte. In Matchweek 21 of the ADMIRAL 2. Liga, head coach Mehmet Sütcü’s squad will take on relegation-threatened SV Horn. Kickoff for this **laola1 Top Match** is set for 10:30 AM. Tickets are available in advance at www.1894.at/tickets .
Staying Focused Until the Final Whistle
Vienna heads into this clash carrying a 3-3 draw against SKN St. Pölten—a result that felt like a defeat after conceding two late goals. A seemingly secured victory slipped away in the closing minutes, a tough setback before the international break.
In the league table, the Blue and Yellows currently sit in fourth place with 35 points, level with Bregenz. The gap to second place is already nine points, while league leaders Admira are 13 points ahead. Yet, the team remains fully focused.
"Despite the gap, we want to keep pushing and continue developing as a team. Every player has the opportunity to take responsibility," says head coach Mehmet Sütcü.
The break was used internally for reflection. "We’ve had many strong phases this spring but often failed to reward ourselves. The key will be staying focused for the full 90 minutes. I’m convinced we’ll see a strong reaction on Sunday," Sütcü added.
Relegation Battle Meets Promotion Ambitions
SV Horn arrives in Vienna fighting for survival. The Lower Austrians are in 15th place—a direct relegation spot— and already eight points adrift of safety. The pressure is on, and every point is crucial.
Sütcü remains cautious despite Horn’s struggles: "Horn will give everything. For them, every single point counts. We must be ready to match their intensity and make sure we come out on top."
Their last encounter in the fall was a goal thriller. Vienna fell behind 0-2 early and trailed 2-3 at halftime, but staged a remarkable comeback to win 6-3. Matches like this prove that Horn is always capable of troubling the favorites.
Since Vienna’s promotion, the head-to-head record is even: two wins, two losses, and one draw. It’s time to tilt the balance in favor of the Blue and Yellows.
Spring, Fans, and Full Stadium Support
