Austria will face North Macedonia in Group C of UEFA EURO 2020/2021. Goal scoring has always been an issue for Austria in previous European championships, however, not against North Macedonia. But one way or the other, this will be a very disputed and active match.
AUSTRIA
Austria’s path was far from an easy one, but after losing their two opening games in the qualifications the team bounced back to place second in Group G, closing with 6 wins, including a game with clean sheets Poland.
This is the first time in the country’s history when they will take part in consecutive Euro championships. Their debut was in 2008, where they were automatically qualified as co-hosts, after that he participated in Euro 2016, and this will be their third appearance in the competition.
And history is on Austria’s side for this match, having beat North Macedonia in their last two encounters, once by 4 – 1 and another by 2 – 1. Group C is also considered “favorable” to Austria, and they hope to take the country to the knockout rounds for the first in history in 2021.
NORTH MACEDONIA
This will be a particularly special event for North Macedonia, as it will be their debut on major tournaments as an independent nation. They finished 3rd in their qualification group and are on a nice streak of 4 games without a loss.
However, things will not be easy for them in this group. With games against Ukraine and the Netherlands, this confront against Austria may be their easiest confront in the group, and Austria, historically at least, is not an easy opponent for them.
However, this is a great occasion for them, they will be playing with the pride of a free and independent nation, and if there is one thing we can say for sure is that they will be giving all they got.
