The undefeated Graz Giants will host the Raiders Tirol in week four of the Austrian Football League this afternoon. The Giants hope to make it four straight wins in front of their home crowd, while the Raiders come into this game looking to end a two-game losing streak

Behind Martin, Raiders running back Tim Tonko hopes to reach the endzone this week, as he’s currently leading the AFL with 277 rushing yards.
Defensively the Raiders are led by Dakota Cannon Griner who currently sits atop the AFL with 22 tackles in three games to go along with two forced fumbles.
The 3-0 Graz Giants and head coach Michael Mattingly are coming off a nail-biting win in Salzburg last week, besting the Ducks 20-17. Offensively, quarterback Nicolas Visser sits second in the league in yards and quarterback rating, operating at a highly efficient level. Defensively, the Giants are led by Franz Kroger who has 20 tackles and 2 sacks on the season.
