Vienna Austria is aiming for success against TSV Hartberg on Sunday after a poor start to the season, but will have to do so without the departed Dominik Fitz.

Vienna Austria currently has only one point, making a home win against Hartberg almost mandatory. Without the creative mind and top scorer Fitz, who transferred to the MLS on Thursday, Helm has to rethink. "I am personally excited in a positive way. But I am convinced that we will find good solutions," said Helm, referring to Johannes Eggestein, Manprit Sarkaria, or Sanel Saljic.

Dragovic Set for Comeback for Vienna Austria Against Hartberg

"The dynamics will change because our game was very much built around Fitzi," said captain Manfred Fischer. Against Hartberg, defense chief Aleksandar Dragovic could return, as he feels fit again after muscle problems in the gluteal area. However, defender Lee Kang-hee suffered a partial tear in the medial ligament of his left knee during the 1-2 away defeat against LASK and will be out for several weeks.

Vienna Austria Has a Score to Settle with Hartberg

The Violets still have a score to settle with Hartberg, having been eliminated by TSV in the cup semi-final in the spring with a 0-1 loss. The Styrians were defeated by Salzburg 1-2 last week despite a commendable performance. "Austria has certainly fallen short of expectations so far and wants to show a reaction and win the game. But we want that too," announced defender Julian Gölles. In attack, Altach newcomer Lukas Fridrikas could make his debut.
