EURO 2024 Qualifier Preview

It has been an excellent start to the qualification campaign for Austria, as they sit top of a competitive Group F. That has upset the odds, as Belgium would have been the clear favourites to run away with top spot. However, Austria has picked up two wins from their opening three matches, and have scored an impressive seven goals. They will need to sharpen up defensively, as they have already allowed three goals. 

Austria come into this fixture having played out a draw in their most recent international fixture, as they couldn’t hold on to a 1-0 advantage against Belgium over the weekend. However, a lot of positives would have been taken from their performance in that fixture, as they broke effectively on the counter-attack throughout the match.

There will be pressure on Sweden for this fixture on Tuesday, as they currently sit third in the overall standings in Group F. They have won just one of their opening two matches, but they have played a game less than their rivals this week. A victory for Sweden could lift them up to second this week, but they will need to find more in the final third, having scored just three across their matches to this point. 

But, the Swedes will come into this fixture in good confidence, as they registered a classy 4-1 win over New Zealand in their previous international at Friends Arena. Anthony Elanga scored in that success, while Jesper Karlsson also found the back of the net on two occasions. 

Austria vs Sweden Head to Head

Austria has landed 18 wins from 34 previous international matches against Sweden. The Swedes have landed eleven wins over the same period. The most recent international clash between these sides was won 2-0 by Austria in September 2018. That win means that they are now unbeaten in three against Sweden. 

Austria vs Sweden Prediction

This looks set to be a fascinating battle between these two national sides, with pressure on both to claim maximum points. However, we find it challenging to overlook Austria, as we have been impressed in the manner in which they have started their Group F campaign.
