Austria vs Republic of Ireland: Nations League preview

Austria will be aiming to seal promotion from Nations League Group B3 in their final home game of the campaign, before they finish with an 'away' fixture against Israel in Hungary on Tuesday.

Ralf Rangnick's side were favourites to win the group and results have so far gone broadly as expected, with the Austrians unbeaten and holding a three-point lead over both Kosovo and the Republic of Ireland. Their superior head-to-head record over the former means a victory over the Irish in Linz tonight would be enough to secure top spot.

Rangnick has brought 17-year-old Sturm Graz wonderkid Luca Weinhandl into his squad for the games against Ireland and Israel, but he will be without several players through injury including captain David Alaba and centre back Max Wober.

Ireland have reported a clean bill of health ahead of two crucial matches, which could end with them finishing in any position from top to bottom of Group B3.

Heimir Hallgrimsson's side will believe they can return from Linz with all three points after taking a 2-0 lead against Austria in Dublin last month, courtesy of two Troy Parrott goals, before conceding twice in the second half.

Ireland know they will guarantee top spot — and promotion to League A — if they win their final two games, with this match followed by Kosovo's visit to Dublin on Tuesday.

FourFourTwo's prediction

Austria 2-1 Republic of Ireland

Rangnick's men are depleted but home advantage could see them edge this one.
