In a highly anticipated pre-quarterfinal match of the Euro Cup 2024, Austria is set to face Turkiye in Leipzig tonight. The Austrian team, led by coach Ralf Rangnick, surprised many by finishing at the top of their group, which included strong teams like France and the Netherlands.

After an initial setback with a 1-0 loss to France, Austria rallied back with impressive victories over Poland (3-1) and the Netherlands (3-2) to secure the top spot in Group D.

Earlier in a friendly match in Vienna, Austria dominated Turkiye with a 6-1 win, with Michael Gregoritsch scoring a hat trick along with goals from Xaver Schlager, Christoph Baumgartner, and Maximilian Entrup.

Turkiye has a history of success against Austria, notably defeating them 6-0 on aggregate in a playoff to qualify for the 2002 World Cup, where they finished third.

With a strong qualifying record, Austria lost just one out of their 10 games leading to Euro Cup 2024. Under Rangnick’s guidance, the team has shown remarkable form, winning 14 of their last 19 matches.

Expected starting XI for the Austria vs Turkiye match includes players like Patrick Pentz, Mert Gunok, Philipp Lienhart, Abdulkerim Bardakci, Ferdi Kadioglu, Kevin Danso, Merih Demiral, Stefan Posch, Mert Muldur, Nicolas Seiwald, Ismail Yuksek, Konrad Laimer, Arda Guler, Kaan Ayhan, Baris Alper Yilmaz, Marcel Sabitzer, Florian Grillitsch, Kenan Yildiz, and Cenk Tosun.

The Austria vs Turkiye clash is scheduled for July 3, with the match kicking off at 12:30 AM IST. Fans in India can catch the action live on Sony Ten 2 HD/SD with English commentary or stream it on Sony LIV.
