Austria meet Scotland in a crucial World Cup 2022 Group F qualifier at the Ernst Happel Stadion on Tuesday night. Read on for a big match preview, betting odds and Austria v Scotland predictions…
Austria v Scotland Preview
Scotland moved one point above the Austrians after a unimpressive 1-0 win at home to Moldova on Saturday, courtesy of an early and solitary Lyndon Dykes goal.
Meanwhile, Austria were on the end of a hugely disappointing 5-2 drubbing away to Israel, having gone 3-0 down in barely 30-minutes.
Denmark already looks nigh on certain to secure top spot and automatic qualification for the World Cup finals, with Israel currently second in the group, two points clear of Scotland. The importance of this game for both teams cannot be overstated.
