FK Austria Wien's title charge stuttered slightly after they were held at home by lowly SV Austria Salzburg.
Pasching take advantage
The goalless draw opened the door for SV Pasching, who made no mistake in beating SK Rapid Wien 2-0 with second-half goals from Eduard Glieder and Alexander Hörtnagl to move within five points of the leaders.
Home Grazer delight
Grazer AK moved off the foot of the table with a 2-0 home win against FC Kärnten. Goalless at the break, the game sparked into life in the 68th minute when Roland Kollmann scored the first goal and Skelly Adu Tutu made the points safe five minutes from time.
Short-lived spell
Schwarz-Weis Bregenz spent Saturday night as the new basement club, but ensured that was not the case 24 hours later with an impressive 3-0 Sunday victory against third-placed SK Sturm Graz.
Own goal saves Ried
The result leaves VfB Admira Wacker Mödling, having been held 1-1 at home by SV Ried. Alexander Ziervogel had given Admira a 34th-minute lead but a Fernando Troyansku own goal on the stroke of half-time was enough for Ried to secure a point.
