Austria vs Russia | Prediction, Betting Tips & Odds
Austria take on World Cup hosts Russia in a friendly match in Innsbruck next week, with both sides looking for a win for differing reasons. Having missed out on place at this summer’s tournament, Austria will be looking to rediscover their best form, while Russia are looking to return home full of confidence ahead of hosting the biggest competition in world football.
Match Preview
Austria and Russia go head-to-head in a friendly encounter in Innsbruck next week, with the visitors gearing up for the World Cup, which kicks off in just a matter of weeks now. However, hosts Austria are looking to put the disappointment of failing to qualify behind them, with manager Franco Foda under pressure to deliver as a result. For those still unsure of who to back, be sure to check out our top betting tip below. However, let’s first take a closer look at the two teams, starting with the Austria.
Austria Form
Austria come into the match off the back of impressive victories over both Slovenia and Luxembourg, with Foda’s side having scored seven goals in the process, without conceding any. The hosts will look to the likes of Marko Arnautović, David Alaba and Aleksandar Dragović to inspire them to victory next week, with the hosts having four potential debutants in their squad also.
Russia Form
Meanwhile, Russia come into the match off the back of successive defeats against Brazil and France, with manager Stanislav Cherchesov undoubtedly looking for his side to return to winning ways sooner rather than later. The visitors are likely to name an experienced starting eleven against Austria, meaning that the likes of Alan Dzagoev, Fyodor Smolov and goalkeeper and Captain Igor Akinfeev could all feature.
Head to Head
The two nations have met four times in both competitive and friendly fixtures in the past, with Austria having two wins and one draw to their name from such encounters. The duo met twice during Euro 2016 qualification, with Austria running out narrow 1-0 winners both home and away. Meanwhile, Russia’s sole success came in a friendly back in 1994.
Austria vs Russia Prediction
Given their status as the home team next week, as well as their recent results against Russia, it comes as little surprise that Austria are the firm favourites for victory with the majority of online bookmakers. The home side are available to back at odds of 5/4 with William Hill, while Russia are priced at 23/10 on the same platform to claim a surprise victory at Tivoli-Neu. Meanwhile, a draw after 90 minutes is available at 11/5 with Paddy Power.
Austria vs Russia Betting Tip: both teams scoring
However, our top betting tip for the match is to bet on both teams scoring during the 90 minutes in Innsbruck, a market is available at a best price of 1/1 with William Hill.
