Minutes before the start of the match between Austria and Moldova, this is how the venue for this afternoon's clash looks like.

The dressing room at the Wörthersee Stadion is now ready with the outfits to be worn by both teams this afternoon. The Austrians will wear their traditional red uniform with white details, while Moldova will wear their blue uniform.

So far, these are the teams that have qualified directly for the Qatar 2022 World Cup.

- Serbia
- Spain
- France
- Belgium
- Denmark
- Croatia
- Germany

The group shared by Austria and Moldova has an absolute leader, Denmark, who already got their direct ticket to the Qatar 2022 World Cup. Likewise, Scotland did the same with a pass to the playoffs, while Israel, Austria, Faroe Islands and Moldova were left on the way and are eliminated.

With the respective hygiene and sanitary measures in place, both Austrians and Moldovans are already on the pitch of the Wörthersee Stadion for the final match of the UEFA qualifiers.

The Austrian team's absentees for this match against Moldova are Konrad Laimer and Alexander Schlager, who are still recovering from injury. On the other hand, the Moldovans have a full squad.

The Wörthersee Stadion is a multi-purpose stadium located in the city of Klagenfurt, Austria. The stadium was inaugurated in 2007 and was built for Euro 2008. It is home to the Austrian soccer team and has a capacity of 32,000 spectators.
