Austria vs North Macedonia Prediction & Betting tips
In Vienna, Austria and Macedonia meet each other on Saturday evening. The home team is now close to a starting ticket for the European Championship.
Austria:
Austria is the current number two in Group G, with sixteen accumulated points, out of eight matches. Due to a bad month of March, in which losses were made twice, the Austrians made it difficult for themselves, but now things are back on track. Last month, Austria delivered a good service by beating direct competitors Israel (3-1) and Slovenia (0-1). Those two countries are now five points behind Das Team.
“The team is hungry, everyone wants to go to the European Championship,” said national coach Franco Foda in the run-up to Saturday’s game. “But we don’t have anything yet. We will have to play very concentrated, “says Foda. The national coach can send a strong team into the field on Saturday. David Alaba, who cannot be used against Slovenia, will be back on Saturday. The long-injured talents Xaver Schlager (VfL Wolfsburg) and Hannes Wolf (RB Leipzig) are still missing from the Austrian national team.
Macedonia:
Macedonia, or rather: Northern Macedonia, still has a small chance to pass through Austria on the ranking. The country currently stands at eleven points, just like Slovenia and Israel. Even so, even if it is not possible to enforce qualification for the European Championship through the regular channels, there is still a chance for Southeastern Europeans to participate in the final round of next year. The Macedonians won their Nations League group last year, allowing them to participate in the play-offs.
The previous qualifying period was reasonable for Macedonia. Slovenia won 2-1. The great talent of the Macedonians, Elif Elmas, scored twice in that game. However, it later turned out that they could not cope with the leader in this group. From Poland, Macedonia lost 2-0. Elmas, who has a hard time following his transfer to Napoli, is a central player in the team of national coach Igor Angelovski. Another key player is Enis Bardhi (Levante). He broke last month, but is now again present.
