We said: Union SG 1-1 LASK Linz

The pressure is on both teams to come away with a positive result on Thursday as they endeavour to keep their slim hopes of a top-two finish in Group E alive. A victory would do the world of good for either side, but we feel that the spoils may be shared in a closely-fought contest considering that there is little to separate these two clubs. Read more.
