After a convincing 4-0 win against Kazakhstan, they are expecting a lot of momentum against their opponents, who have also been successful recently. This victory came at just the right time, as the results in the Nations League have been rather mixed recently. A seven-game winless streak, including two draws and five defeats, was causing discontent among fans until a few days ago. However, the fact that they have a historically positive record against Norway should make many fans in Austria optimistic. Norway are travelling to Linz as league leaders. After two wins in a row on home soil, they are well on their way to moving up to the top level of the Nations League for the first time. The Norwegians have presented a balanced picture in their last six away games in this competition recording two wins, two draws, two losses. This shows us that they are not unbeatable on foreign soil. Nevertheless, if they start like they did on Thursday against Slovenia, when they took the lead in the seventh minute, then the Austrians will have their chances. Austria will increase the pressure from the start to lure the Scandinavians out of their defensive position. After all, they need the win to take the lead in the group. Norway, on the other hand, would certainly be happy with a draw, especially since a point would keep them at the top of the table. But it won't be that easy for them, because Austria are strong attackers at home, which they have proven in recent games.
