Austria
DLWWLD ⚖
In their last fixture, Austria drew 1-1 in the Nations League match with Slovenia.
In that game, Austria managed 63% possession and 12 attempts at goal with 4 on target. The only player on the scoresheet for Austria was Konrad Laimer (28'). For their opponents, Slovenia had 8 attempts at goal with 1 on target. Benjamin Šeško (16') scored for Slovenia.
The stats don’t lie, and Austria have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 games, seeing their opponents hit 8 goals in all. Defensively, Austria have clearly had some problems. We will just have to see if that trend will end up being sustained in this game.

We envisage that Austria and Norway may well end up cancelling each other out here.
A draw is a real possibility, as we are expecting there to be little between them. That is why we are leaning toward a very close game with a 1-1 score draw after 90 minutes.
