Austria performed well at Euro 2024, finishing at the top of their group, which included the Netherlands, Poland, and France. However, despite several missed opportunities, they were ultimately knocked out by Turkey.
In the Nations League, Austria played away games against Slovenia and Norway in the first two rounds. In both matches, the Austrians played as well as their opponents but faced defensively organized teams, making it difficult to create scoring opportunities.
The first match against Slovenia ended in a 1-1 draw, while Austria lost the second match to Norway due to the opponents’ successful vertical attacks.
In the third round, Austria convincingly defeated Kazakhstan 4-0. Now, they have two upcoming home matches against direct rivals Slovenia and Norway, as well as a trip to Kazakhstan.
Austria has lost only once in their last ten home games and have won four of their previous four. Rangnick’s team is strong at home, able to overwhelm opponents with powerful pressing and lightning-fast attacks. Therefore, Austria is the favorite for the upcoming match against Norway.
Norway, despite having a strong team, failed to qualify for Euro 2024. However, coach Ståle Solbakken has retained his position and has been given another chance to prove himself.
In the first round of the Nations League, the Norwegian team had 71% possession but couldn’t break through Kazakhstan’s defense in an away match.
Following that, Ståle Solbakken’s team defeated Austria 2-1 at home, thanks to the excellent performance of forwards Alexander Sørloth and Erling Haaland. In the third round, Norway unexpectedly crushed Slovenia 3-0, creating numerous opportunities and demonstrating total dominance over their opponent.
In the next away match against Austria, Norway will be without Martin Ødegaard due to injury, but the rest of the main players will be ready to play.
In 2022, Norway managed to win away matches against Serbia and Sweden, but after that, there were only two victories in eight matches. Norway particularly struggled away in the Euro 2024 qualifiers.
Bet hereThe Austrian national team is capable of putting on a strong performance in their home match and creating a number of dangerous moments through pressing and counter-pressing.
The Austrians will surely be motivated to win this match, just as they did in their games against Germany, Turkey, and Serbia before the Euro.
Furthermore, if the hosts want to succeed in the Nations League, they are unlikely to be satisfied with a draw in this match, so they will surely play in an attacking style.
Norway is currently leading the table with a three-point lead over their opponents, so they will be content with draws in their away matches against Austria and Slovenia. After that, they will have a chance to defeat Kazakhstan at home.
Erling Braut Haaland is in excellent condition and will surely create major problems for his opponents. Since the Austrians usually play with a high defensive line, Haaland will have good chances to make runs behind Austria’s defenders and dangerously shoot at the goal.
