Austria v Scotland Tipp & Quoten, 07.09.2021 – 20:45 Uhr – World Cup Qualification Europe
The Austrian national team embarrassed itself on Saturday in the World Cup qualification in Israel and was virtually shot down. The upcoming international match against Scotland at the Ernst-Happel-Stadium in Vienna is thus gaining in importance. In the event of another defeat, the ÖFB-Elf would be almost back before the end of the World Cup, provided that the competition in group F in the upper ranks wins their matches.
The Foda team slipped down to fourth place (7 points) and is three points down on second place. Denmark leads Group F sovereignly with 15 points.
The British did justice to the favourites role in the home game against the Republic of Moldova on the same day and scored the important three points. Thus, the Bravehearts overtook Austria in the table (8 points) and have the front two group positions in their sights, which qualify for the World Cup 2022 in Qatar.
If you look at the Austria – Scotland odds, the online bookies attribute the favourite role of the Austrian national team. A tip on the ÖFB selection brings betting odds in the top of 1.75. Whether a tip on the 3-way betting “Austria wins” could be crowned with success, is now the subject of the following lines.

For the national team of Franco Foda, the Sammy Ofer Stadium 2019 in the European Championship Quali was already not a good patch. At that time, the ÖFB team lost 2-4 and last weekend, in the World Championship qualification, they added another 2-4 to their lead at the same place. After just over half an hour, the Israelis led 3-0 through the gates of Solomon (5th), Dabbur (20th) and Zahavi (33rd). On the opposite side, Austria sent a sign of life through the 1:3 of Baumgartner (42nd) and came out of the cabin with new momentum. Ten minutes after the relaunch Arnautovic scored a 2:3 goal (55th). Almost in return, the red-white-reds had an open day at the back – 4:2 Weissmann (58th). A turbulent final phase began, which Israel took advantage of to 5:2 by Zahavi and brought the final result to a close (90.).
The Foda team won only two games in the five World Cup qualifying games and only against the outsiders of the F-Faroe Islands group (3:1) and in Moldova (2:0). In Scotland, there was a 0-2 defeat at the start. The following home game on the 3rd day against Denmark (0:4) was the most negative highlight until the Israel game.
The Austrian people have been waiting for almost 20 years for a football world championship with the participation of the red-white-reds. Austria competed in the final round of the World Championships in France in 1998 and missed the following five tournaments.
The Bundesliga regional players Sasa Kalajdzic from the VfB Stuttgart (not nominated as injured) and Christoph Baumgartner (TSG Hoffenheim) are the most accurate players in the ÖFB jersey with three goals each.

The Scottish national team celebrated a 1-0 home win over Moldova last Saturday and is once again fully engaged in the fight for direct World Cup qualification. The goal of the day was scored by Dykes in the first quarter of an hour (14th). Steve Clarke’s team scored seven out of eight points in Group F at home – Austria (2-2), Faroe Islands (4-0), Moldova (1-0). The two away games in the current competition were less successful with a 1-1 defeat in Israel and a 0-2 defeat against Denmark.
The Clarke-Elf celebrated the return to the big football stage after five missed European Championship tournaments in a row this year, but did not get beyond the group phase at the EURO 2021. There were two defeats against the Czech Republic (0-2) and Croatia (1-3). In the Battle of Britain, the Bravehearts beat the eternal rivals England by one point (0:0). It was also a long time ago that the Scots took part in the World Championships. Like Austria, the British were last present at a World Championship in 1998 and missed the following five finals.
The two top snippers in the World Cup Quali are John McGinn of Aston Villa (3 goals) and Ryan Fraser (2) of Newcastle United. Top star and team captain Andrew Robertson of FC Liverpool has not yet entered the scoring list, which is not expected of him as a left-back.
Nathan Patterson of the Glasgow Rangers is in Corona quarantine and is also missing in Austria.

Due to the home advantage, Austria is to be favoured against Scotland. The Scots will travel to Vienna with confidence and are aware of their good starting position. The ÖFB-Elf, on the other hand, is under real pressure after the clap in Israel and can almost make up for the direct World Cup qualification in the event of another bankruptcy.
However, the British have not yet been able to score three points in the two away games in qualifying and have so far only won against the group underdogs from Moldova and the Faroe Islands.
We guess that the Foda team will recover from the embarrassment in Israel and win the home game with their own fans behind them in the Ernst-Happel-Stadion. Accordingly, we take the tip Austria wins the eye. Betting on this outcome brings with it betting odds in the area of the 1.75.
