Croatia: Maintain first place in the group
On the other hand, the Croatian national team led by Zlatko Dalić has had a very good participation in this UEFA Nations League. The Croatians have found the formula to play good soccer and are the leaders of their group with 10 points, leaving behind teams like Denmark, France, and tonight's opponent, Austria. The Croatian team has a record of three wins, one draw and one loss, curiously, the loss was against the Austrians. In their most recent game, Croatia claimed a 2-1 victory over Denmark who had found the equalizer at 77', but two minutes later, Croatia regained the lead to seal the win.
Austria: Last place in group
The Austrian national team, coached by Ralf Ragnick, has had a rather irregular participation in this UEFA Nations League and remains in the penultimate place in its group with four points, with only one win, one draw and three defeats. Austria lost their most recent match against the world champion team: France, by a score of 2-0 with goals by Mbappé and Giroud at 56' and 65' respectively. The Austrians were unable to react and find the goal that would bring them closer on the scoreboard. Ragnick's charges will not be present at the World Cup in Qatar, however, they want to finish this Nations League tournament on a high note.
