Poland vs Austria Predicted lineup, betting tips, odds, injury news, H2H, telecast | UEFA Euro 2024

Both teams suffered defeat in their opening match.

After a heartbreaking defeat in their opening game against the Netherlands, Poland will be keen to bounce back and avoid another defeat in the ongoing UEFA Euro 2024. Poland opened the scoring with Adam Buksa before the Dutch fought back very late in the game. They put up a courageous effort in their opening game and will hope to replicate the same because it’s now or never for them.

But, standing in Michał Probierz’s team’s way will be Ralf Ragnick’s Austria who were also handed a defeat by favourites France a few days ago. Austria gave France a tough time on the pitch and did not let them have it easy. They are highly motivated to get the better of the White and Red because the stakes are higher than ever. 

Kick Off

Form

Poland (in all competitions): L-W-W-D-W

Austria (in all competitions): L-D-W-W-W

Players to watch 

Robert Lewandowski (Poland)

Robert Lewandowski will have a huge role to play if Poland want to make it out of their group. He missed the last game due to an injury and his absence was very much felt on the pitch. Poland’s record goalscorer will hope to come back stronger on the pitch and help his side get all three points in a must-win encounter against Austria.

Nicolas Seiwald (Austria)

Nicolas Seiwald was among the top players for Austria in the curtain-raiser against France. He stood tall against Les Bleus and did not allow them many opportunities to have a go at his team. He won the ball cleanly on most occasions while recording eighth successful ground duels and tackles each. Seiwald also pulled off three crucial clearances and an important block.
