Österreich gegen Norwegen Tipp & Quoten, 18.11.2020 – 20:45 Uhr
On Wednesday evening, 18.11.2020 at 20:45, the Austrian national team will receive Norway’s football selection at the Ernst Happel Stadium in Vienna. Last weekend, the ÖFB team welcomed Northern Ireland and achieved a close victory at home. This puts the Red and White team at the top of Group B1 after five match days (12 points). The Lovene should have competed in Romania at the same time. The Nations-League game was cancelled due to too many positively tested players of the Norwegian national team. Ten players are quarantined and the rest of the squad will now try to score points in Vienna. Despite the one NL game, the Lagerbäck-Elf is less group-wide (9 points). This is followed by Romania (4) and Northern Ireland (1).

The Alpenkickers struggled for a long time in their home game against Northern Ireland’s B-Eleven. After a goalless first 45 minutes, things didn’t really get right until late in the second half. In the final phase the Northern Irish went through stomach ice with 1:0 in the front (74th). But the imminent defeat against the winless finish could be prevented in the last nine minutes – 1:1 Schaub (81st) and shortly before the final whistle Grbic scored a 2-1 victory for Austria (87th). A close working victory for the favourite, who showed a weak performance.
The Foda-Elf celebrated the third consecutive threesome in the NL with the victory against Northern Ireland. Previously, the ÖFB team won 1-0 in Northern Ireland and Romania twice in a row. The first home game in the current competition was lost at home against Romania on the second day of the match (2:3). To kick off the new season, the Red and White team in Norway won 2-1.
Last weekend’s 3-0 friendly victory in Luxembourg shortly before the start of the nation league matches saw LASK’s players convince. In the second, much better half, four Linzers were on the pitch. Defensive players Philipp Wiesinger and Gernot Trauner scored their first and second international goals in the national team. Reinhold Ranftl and Husein Balic were replaced in the second half.
The ÖFB-Elf scored eight goals in the Nations League. With two goals Michael Gregortisch from Bundesliga player FC Augsburg is the most accurate professional in the national jersey.
Against Norway, Christoph Baumgartner (quarantine) and the yellow-blocked central defender Aleksandar Dragovic will be missing.

As mentioned before, the national team of Lars Lagerbäck had no game on the weekend and could not compete in Romania. The last NL game was played by Lovene at home against Northern Ireland in October and was as difficult as Austria a few days ago. Only through an own goal of Irish Dallas (67th) could one celebrate a home victory. Almost a week earlier, the semi-finals in the European Championship playoffs took place, which were lost 1-2 at home to Serbia after overtime. Haaland and Co. are not going to the EURO 2021 next year.
The Lagerbäck team won three consecutive games in the last Nation League games. There were two successes against Northern Ireland. The first leg even went clear to Norway 5-1. The high away win in Northern Ireland has been the only guest appearance of the Lovene in the NL so far. Between the two victories against the Irish there was a 4-0 home win against Romania.
Norway will compete with an emergency team in Vienna. This was announced by the Norwegian association NFF. Omar Elabdellaoui (corona infection) has now left. Bundesliga regional players Erling Haaland (BVB) and Alexander Sörloth (Leipzig) will probably not play either and will be protected by their clubs. Coach Lagerbäck is also in quarantine and is represented by U21 coach Leif Gunnar Smerud. Meanwhile, Union pro Ryerson will travel to the national team.
The Norwegian national team already scored 11 goals in the NL. Only Belgium scored once again, but has also played one more international game. The best clipper is BVB youngster Erling Haaland (6 hits). The forward even leads the NL scorer list. Alexander Sörloth cheered three times and a goal contributed to Mohamed Elyounoussi (Celtic Glasgow).

Austria is very favourite against Norway for victory. The ÖFB-Elf is the first in the Nations-League-Group B1 and has the home advantage on its side. Nevertheless, the Lovene should by no means be underestimated. If you take out the playoff defeat in the European Championship qualification, the Lagerbäck-Elf was also in good shape with three recent victories in the NL. In addition, the offensive is flammable and the second best in the ongoing competition. With Haaland and Sörloth, however, the two goalkeepers are now out and a B-Elf is to judge it in Vienna. There can hardly be a more catastrophic preparation with the cancelled international game on the weekend in Romania and the many corona-related outages. We are therefore confident that Austria will win the game clearly and qualify for the semi-finals in the Nations League. Associated with this, we recommend for this Nations League Tip forecast the 3-way bets on Austria wins, where betting odds in the range around 1.20 to 1.25 wave.
