Preview
Luxembourg is the undefeated side in this division. They defeated Austria 18-13 back in November 2014.

‘Perhaps the last match at this venue because the owner is a third division Football team with possibilities to climb next year to the second league and with that on mind the want to have a more cared pitch.
After a great result in Denmark 10 days ago, Austria is looking to keep that 3rd spot on the table and specially to win at home against the Nº1 Union in the pool.’
