Norway will look to maintain their unbeaten start to the 2024/25 Nations League when they face Austria away on Sunday.

Both sides are coming off impressive victories on Thursday as Norway beat Slovenia 3-0, while Austria defeated Kazakhstan 4-0.

Match Preview

Austria Recent Form

In the September fixtures, Austria drew 1-1 away at Slovenia and then lost 2-1 away at Norway.

They finally put a win on the board this week when they put four past Kazakhstan, with Christoph Baumgartner, Marcel Sabitzer, Philipp Leinhart and Matthias Seidl scoring the goals.

Austria Injury News

Ralf Rangnick has some issues at the back as David Alaba remains out, while Kevin Danso and Max Wober are also injured.

Last Austria Lineup

Here's how Austria lined up against Kazakhstan.

Norway Recent Form

Norway weren't involved in the European Championships but are making up for that in the Nations League as they've won two and drawn one of their three matches so far.

In September, they surprisingly drew 0-0 with Kazakhstan but then beat Austria 2-1 at home.

On Thursday, they beat Slovenia 3-0 with Erling Haaland scoring two and Alexander Sorloth scoring the other.

Norway Injury News

The biggest squad omission for Norway remains Martin Odegaard who has been missing since the September matches due to an ankle injury. He hasn't played for Arsenal since then, either.

Oscar Bobb is out injured also, but there doesn't appear to be any fresh concerns from Thursday.

Last Norway Lineup

Here's how Norway lined up against Slovenia.

Austria - Player To Watch

Marcel Sabizter has only scored two goals this season and they have both came for Austria - one came in the previous game against Norway and the other came on Thursday against Kazakhstan.

Norway - Player To Watch

Goal machine Erling Haaland has been banging them in for club and country and added to his season tally with another two versus Slovenia. He is pretty much unstoppable at the moment.

Austria vs Norway - Prediction

There wasn't much between the two sides when they met in September even of Norway won, so Austria will be eager to make things right, especially with the home advantage on Sunday.
