Austria and Serbia are set to meet in a crucial Relegation Nations League encounter on Thursday evening. This highly anticipated clash will take place at the Ernst-Happel-Stadion in Vienna, where both teams will be looking to secure a vital victory to stay in contention. Austria come into this match with a solid recent record, while Serbia face the challenge of a weakened squad. The stage is set for an exciting and intense contest between these two teams, both with much to play for in the competition.
Austria will enter this match with a sense of optimism, bolstered by the return of star defender David Alaba, who has recovered from injury and will play a key role in Austria’s defence. Manager Ralf Rangnick has made strides in implementing a high-pressing, energetic style of play, and the team’s defensive solidity, combined with their attacking options, makes them a dangerous proposition for any opponent. Austria’s squad is relatively fit, and with home advantage, they are expected to field a strong lineup.
Serbia, however, face significant challenges ahead of this fixture. A series of suspensions have severely depleted their squad, with key players such as Nikola Milenkovic, Strahinja Pavlovic, Andrija Zivkovic, and Aleksa Terzic all ruled out. To make matters worse, several prominent players, including Aleksandar Mitrovic, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, and Filip Kostic, have been omitted from the squad. This leaves Serbia with a weakened team that will need to summon all their strength and tactical discipline to compete against Austria. Manager Dragan Stojković will need to make key adjustments in order to overcome these absences and challenge Austria in Vienna.
Austria are the strong favourites going into this match, and the betting market suggests that a home win for Austria is the most likely outcome. With a solid home record, a better recent run of form, and a full-strength squad, Austria should have the upper hand in this Relegation Nations League clash. Serbia’s recent form has been inconsistent, and with several key players absent, they will struggle to match Austria’s intensity and tactical approach. Our primary betting tip for this match is a home win for Austria.
Our Austria v Serbia prediction leans heavily towards Austria securing a comfortable victory. Austria’s solid form and home advantage are significant factors in this prediction, especially given Serbia’s struggles with squad depth. While Serbia has the ability to cause an upset on their day, their current form and the absence of key players make it hard to envision them overcoming a well-organised Austrian side.
Match Prediction: Austria to win. Bet with bet365.
In terms of our Austria v Serbia score prediction, we believe that Austria will win this match 2-0. With Austria’s recent form and their defensive resilience, it seems unlikely that Serbia will be able to breach their defence. Austria’s attacking players have been in good form, and with Serbia missing several key defensive options, we expect Austria to come out on top in a relatively low-scoring encounter. A 2-0 win for Austria offers excellent value in the betting markets.
Correct Score Prediction: 2-0 to Austria. Bet with bet365.
Given the defensive solidity of both teams, particularly in their recent matches, the most likely outcome for the total number of goals in this game is under 2.5. Both Austria and Serbia have shown an inclination towards low-scoring matches, with their recent games ending in draws or low-scoring results. Austria have been effective at shutting out opponents, and Serbia’s struggles in attack, particularly in the absence of key players, further suggest that this will be a cagey affair. Therefore, our Austria vs Serbia over/under goals prediction is for under 2.5 goals.
Over/Under Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals. Bet with bet365.
For those interested in a Austria v Serbia Bet Builder option, a valuable bet could be to combine Austria to win with both teams not to score. Given the attacking threats Austria possess, combined with Serbia’s weakened squad, it is reasonable to expect that Austria will be able to claim a victory while keeping a clean sheet. Additionally, including a player to score anytime in your Bet Builder bet, such as Austria’s Marko Arnautović, is a sensible option. Arnautović has been in good form for both club and country, and he is likely to be one of the key attacking threats for Austria in this match.
Bet Builder Tip: Austria to win to nil and Marko Arnautović to score anytime. Bet with bet365.
