Austria vs. North Macedonia Tip & Quotas, 13.06.2021 – 18:00
With a good year’s delay, it’s finally time for the 2021 European Football Championship to start in June 2021. Group C will face Austria and Northern Macedonia on the first day of the match. An encounter in which the roles are more than clearly distributed even before the kick-off. The alpine kickers are set as favourites and will want to start the qualification with a victory. Whether the odds are justified and to what extent the “Össis” will fulfil their role on Sunday, 13.06. from 18:00 at the Arena Nationala in Bucharest, must be clarified in the following betting tip forecast.
(Status of EM 2021 odds: 17.05.2021, 23:03 hrs)
For the Austrians, it is the fifth participation in an EM final round. At the last European Championships in France, however, the team was less successful and had only one meagre point in the account after three group games. In Group F, the alpine kickers were to be regarded as a great disappointment. Against the competition from Hungary, Iceland and Portugal, only the last place in the table stood out in the end. A more than weak performance that now needs to be levelled out. Only one goal was scored in the previous European Championships. The defense on the other side should be conceded by a total of four goals.
In the course of qualifying for the European Championships, Austria did not embarrass itself and finished in second place after ten group matches. Six victories, a draw and three defeats were won. 19 points were to be won. The gap to the top rider from Poland amounted to six meters. What is positive, however, is that Austria has already met North Macedonia in qualifying. Both matches were won (4:1, 2:1).
The Austrians rank 23rd in the FIFA ranking. The entire squad impresses with a market value of 303 million euros. The most valuable players are David Alaba and Marcel Sabitzer. Both are well known from the Bundesliga. Alaba (central defender) kicks in Munich and Sabitzer is under contract in Leipzig. Other Bundesliga players include Xaver Schlager (Wolfsburg), Christoph Baumgartner (Hoffenheim) and Sasa Kalajdzic (Stuttgart). The alpine kickers show good potential in all team areas with partly young players.

Northern Macedonia qualified for the European Championship for the first time. In general, the North Macedonians qualified for the first time for a major international tournament. The team will do everything possible to perform well in the group phase. However, the odds show that coach Angelovski’s team is acting as a clear outsider in Group C. Competition with Austria, the Netherlands and Ukraine is far too strong.
The fact that the North Macedonians can certainly provide a surprise became apparent in the course of the EM qualification. There, the eleven were not considered to have a great chance of winning a ticket for the final round against the competition from Poland, Austria, Slovenia and Israel. In the end, the third place jumped out behind Austria and Poland.
In any case, a more than strong performance. Although the two approaches against Poland and Austria were lost. In the semi-finals against Kosovo, the team competed as a group champion. Northern Macedonia came in close to 2-1. Georgia was defeated 1-0 in the final. The North Macedonians have thus made football history.
The elf is without a doubt not part of the elite in world football. In the FIFA world rankings, North Macedonia ranks 63rd and boasts a total market value of 61.75 million euros. The big superstars don’t exist on the team. However, one or the other well-known name is likely to be present. Above all, midfield editor Eljif Elmas from the SSC Naples should be mentioned. Levante’s left-wing Enis Bardhi also plays at a high level. Once very well known was Goran Pandev. In the past, the 37-year-old kicked at Inter and the SSC Naples and acts as captain of the team. All in all, however, the class is far from reaching Austria.

The EM qualification has already revealed that Austria is easily able to beat North Macedonia. In the end, both qualification duels were won. In Group C, any mistake of any kind could be punished. Competition with the Netherlands and Ukraine is by no means to be underestimated. In the course of our betting tip forecast, the alpine kickers are to be regarded as significantly stronger. For this reason, it is advisable to bet on a victory of the “Össis“.
