Estonia vs Austria: Can Estonia change their luck today?

So far, Austria haven’t gained a point in any of their qualifying matches and last month recorded their fourth defeat of this year at home against Azerbaijan. Though, they demonstrated certain progress during the last friendly when they managed to tie with Thailand – 1-1.

Estonia have equally suffered with the qualifiers losing most of their six games scoring just twice against them. The worst part is their home game record, where they have lost eight successive Qualifiers without getting to score at least in six games. It may pose a thorn to them having conceded 17 goals in their last five home qualifier matches.

However, team die Mannschaft lost just once from the last 10 matches of all tournaments but they were beaten at the end by Belgium at home about a month ago. In fact, these teams are very strong when playing on the opponents’ pitch, drawing no defeats in their last four, three of them won.
