Austria Klagenfurt start their "Mission Europe" at home on Sunday (14:30). Sturm captain Stefan Hierländer praises the "Violets", often thinks of his Carinthian homeland - and currently also has to mourn. In any case, Klagenfurt coach Peter Pacult was prepared for Christian Ilzer's spies. Plus: A coach departure could be imminent in Waidmannsdorf.

When, if not this year? Sturm Graz's elimination from the European Cup means that Austria's Bundesliga will not only lose its Champions League spot in 2025/26, but also that the Cup winner or third-placed team in the league will no longer at least start in the UEFA Conference League, but will have to qualify.
