Austria Vienna vs Hapoel Be'er Sheva prediction, preview, team news and more | UEFA Europa Conference League 2022–23
Austria Vienna will play host to Hapoel Be'er Sheva in Group C of the Europa Conference League group stage on Thursday.
Austria Vienna were transferred to the Europa Conference League group stage after crashing out of the Europa League in the playoff round.
Drawn in Group C, Die Veilchen will face Villarreal, Lech Poznan and Hapoel Be'er Sheva, against whom they will begin their campaign. However, the Austrian team is battling injury woes as five key players may be sidelined for the clash, not forgetting Lucas Galvao’s suspension. It’s unclear how much impact the situation will have on their performance.
Hapoel Be'er Sheva are reaching the group stage of the competition for the first time. In the previous rounds, they defeated Dinamo Minsk, Lugano and Universitatea Craiova to signal their continental ambitions. The Camels have come under fire of late for tough-tackling, which has resulted in multiple red cards.
They have received two on the domestic front and one in the Conference League. Their two most recent home matches ended in defeats after players were sent off. Coach Elyaniv Barda has promised timely reforms.
Hapoel Be'er Sheva have not lost a match in their last four outings on the road – a threat which has been confirmed by Austria Vienna coach Manfred Schmid.
