The first leg in Edinburgh ended 2-2, so Rapid return to Vienna with everything still to play for and a squad that has lost zero of its last five across all competitions. That 8-0 hammering of Grazer AK at home shows the firepower they carry on their own turf, and Hearts arrive having shipped 11 goals in five outings, keeping just one clean sheet. Szladits and Nunoo are sidelined for Rapid; Hearts are without Halkett and Kingsley at the back, which is a real concern given their defensive record. Rapid have scored in all 5 of their last 5, Hearts have conceded in 4 of their last 5. Both sides are open, but the Austrians hold the structural edge at home. Rapid at 1.57-1.60 is not a generous price, but the form, the venue advantage and Hearts' leaky defence make it the right call. Commit to the home win.
