Austria Wien ended the first part of the 1986-87 Bundesliga in first place with 33 points, three more than their rivals Rapid Wien, but eventually lost the title to Rapid in the last round of the season due to higher goal difference from Rapid and to a draw against Sturm Graz away.
In the Austrian Cup, they reached the quarter-finals where they lost to Swarovski Tirol, and they lost to Bayern Munich in the second round of the European Cup.
Star striker Toni Polster, who would leave for Torino FC in the summer, had his best season with the club, scoring 47 goals in total, winning the European Golden Shoe.
