On Saturday, the capricious weather in large parts of Austria led to numerous cancellations. While FC Dornbirn are to reschedule their match against Kuchl on September 24, Altach Juniors will have to wait for their game in Kufstein. VfB Hohenems are different: Coach Werner Grabherr's team face Bischofshofen today (18:30).

 "It's always a challenge to play during the week, as many of my players are at work or at school," said VfB coach Werner Grabherr. "But it looks like we have everyone on board. Only goalkeeper Florian Eres is not quite fixed yet."

Regionalliga West - Supplementary matches

7th round: B'hofen - Hohenems (today, 18:30), FC Dornbirn - Kuchl (September 24, 18), FC Kitzbühel - FC Pinzgau Saalfelden (October 2, 19:30), SC Schwaz - TSV St. Johann (October 9, 19:30), FC Kufstein - SCR Altach Juniors (date still open)

Grabherr sees the late kick-off time as the biggest challenge: "It will probably be three o'clock in the morning by the time we get back to the Ländle. If you then have to work a few hours later and play again on Saturday, that's an extreme challenge."

Kufstein pitch still unplayable
The Altach Juniors are spared this. Their supplementary match at FC Kufstein, also scheduled for today, had to be called off again as the pitch in the Inn Valley is still too wet and unplayable.
