Norway vs Austria Prediction and Betting Tips | September 9th 2024

Norway will welcome Austria to Ullevaal Stadion in the UEFA Nations League on Monday. Both teams played out draws in their campaign opener last week.

The hosts were held to a goalless draw in their away game against Kazakhstan, recording just two shots on target. They kept their second clean sheet of the year in that match and will look to build on that defensive form.

Das Team played out a 1-1 draw in their away meeting against Slovenia on Friday. Both goals were scored in the first half, as Konrad Laimer equalized 12 minutes after Benjamin Šeško's penalty gave Slovenia the lead in the 16th minute.

Both teams conclude their current international break with this match and will resume their Nations League campaign next month.

Norway vs Austria Prediction

The Lions failed to score for the first time in 2024 last week and will look to return to goalscoring ways. They have suffered just two losses in the Nations League at home thus far, with one of them coming against Das Team in 2020.

Burschen scored just once in their campaign opener and had four shots on target. They will look to improve upon that record. They are winless in two of their last three away games in the Nations League, failing to score in these losses, which is a cause for concern.

Considering the current form of the two teams and recent history, a low-scoring draw will likely ensue.
