Buy Austria Nations League tickets for the 2026/27 league phase, covering all six group matches home and away. Fresh from qualifying for the 2026 World Cup, their first in 28 years, Ralf Rangnick's side drop into League B, Group B3 determined to climb straight back to the top tier. With captain David Alaba leading a squad drawn from the leading clubs of Europe, the group pits Austria against Israel, the Republic of Ireland and Kosovo, and the grand Ernst-Happel-Stadion in Vienna will host three nights the home support will fill.
Thousands trust 1BoxOffice
The draw makes Austria clear favourites for promotion. A relegation from the top tier sent them down, yet the summer told a very different story as they sealed a return to the World Cup, and Rangnick's men arrive as the strongest side in Group B3 by some distance. The Republic of Ireland provide the marquee visit, bringing a huge travelling support to Vienna, while Israel and Kosovo offer their own tests. For a nation whose supporters remember the great sides of the past, hosting these fixtures at a 50,000-seat national stadium is a real occasion.
The wider competition picture, including group tables and every stage of the season, sits on the UEFA Nations League tickets hub. This page brings the whole picture together in one place: what you can expect to pay, where Austria stage their home nights, how the away allocations work and how to buy with confidence on a resale market. Supporters shut out of the association windows still have a route in, and that route is what 1BoxOffice exists to protect.
National team sales rarely keep pace with the appetite for them, and Austria fill the Ernst-Happel-Stadion for their big nights. Home tickets are distributed through the Austrian association, its supporter membership and a handful of partner allocations, and the marquee fixtures disappear from those channels quickly. When the Republic of Ireland come to Vienna with a large travelling support, the members-only sales are oversubscribed long before any general release reaches the wider public.
The resale market fills the gap those channels leave behind. A supporter in Graz who missed the ballot, a visitor flying in from the Gulf for a single night, a member of the Austrian community abroad who decided late to make the trip: all of them need a marketplace where verified sellers list genuine inventory. Flexibility is the point. You choose the fixture, the stand and the budget rather than accepting whatever the membership window happens to return.
That flexibility matters most for the fixtures that draw the heaviest demand. Austria against the Republic of Ireland brings one of the most travelled supports in the game to Vienna. Austria against Israel opens the group with a home crowd eager to see a World Cup side. For matches like these, a trusted secondary platform is often the only realistic path to a seat once the association's own allocation is gone.
Resale also protects supporters against the practical realities of following a national team. Fixtures are scheduled long in advance, yet work, travel and family plans shift, and not everyone who secured a seat months ago can still use it in the autumn. A functioning resale market lets those tickets pass safely to fans who can attend, rather than leaving seats empty in a sold-out stadium. Handled through a verified platform, that transfer benefits buyer and seller alike.
1BoxOffice has operated in the ticket resale market since 2006, and that track record is the foundation of every purchase. The platform connects buyers with verified sellers, screens listings and stands behind the transaction rather than simply hosting it. For an Austria home fixture where counterfeit risk is real, that layer of protection is worth more than a marginal saving elsewhere.
The guarantee is the part supporters remember. Every order is backed so that buyers are covered if something goes wrong before the turnstile, and the whole process is built to get you into the ground rather than leave you stranded and arguing at the gate. Here is what comes with a booking:
Austrian football is enjoying a fine era, and a home window with a World Cup side and promotion on the line turns every fixture into an event. Several forces push the seats faster than a routine international would, and together they explain why the home allocation for the marquee nights disappears so quickly.
Each of the drivers below feeds the same result: more buyers than the association can serve, and a resale market that carries the overflow.
Put those together and the maths is simple. A World Cup side, a short run of home dates and a promotion race combine to exhaust the association's allocation quickly for the marquee fixtures. That is exactly when a verified resale market earns its place.
Resale prices for an Austria home fixture move with the opponent, the stand and how close to kick-off you buy. The visit of the Republic of Ireland sits at the top of the range, while a lower-profile night settles closer to the entry level. Category and position inside the ground then layer on top, with a seat behind the goal priced very differently from a central berth on the halfway line.
Timing is the other lever. Listings for Austria vs Republic of Ireland tickets tend to firm up early as buyers move to secure the standout nights, whereas prices for the other matches can ease closer to the date as sellers adjust. There is no single correct moment to buy, only a trade-off between certainty and the chance of a later softening that may never come for the marquee games.
It helps to understand how the categories work before you buy. Austria home fixtures at the Ernst-Happel-Stadion are sold in price bands that broadly track the quality of the view, with the most expensive covering the central sideline seats and the lower-priced bands sitting behind the goals or high in the corners. On the resale market those bands still shape the listings, so a top-category seat that started dearer at face value will usually stay dearer when it changes hands. The table below sets out typical resale ranges in pounds for the 2026/27 window. These reflect the secondary market rather than face value, and they shift as demand and availability change.
| Type of Ticket | Typical Price Range (GBP) |
|---|---|
| Lower-demand home fixture | £30 – £95 |
| High-demand fixture (Austria vs Republic of Ireland) | £65 – £230+ |
| Category 1 central seating | £85 – £240 |
| Behind the goal, lower tier | £30 – £95 |
| Hospitality and VIP | £220 – £1,050+ |
Prices reflect typical resale ranges and may change as demand and availability shift.
A little judgement helps you read those ranges. The lower end of each band tends to reflect single seats or listings high in the corners, while the upper end covers pairs and central positions that a group will chase. For the Republic of Ireland visit the whole range firms up sooner because the demand is deep and the travelling support large, so a supporter waiting for a bargain on that night is likely to be disappointed. For the Israel and Kosovo fixtures there is a touch more give, and a patient buyer watching the market in the fortnight before kick-off may catch a seat as sellers who cannot travel release their tickets. The sensible rule is to buy the marquee fixture early and the rest with a little more patience, always weighing the certainty of a seat now against the chance of a modest saving that may never come.
Austria channel a share of home tickets through their supporter membership and priority windows. The association rewards regulars with early access, which is fair on the most loyal support but leaves occasional match-goers on the outside. If you did not join the scheme months in advance, the earliest sales were never really open to you, and for the visit of the Republic of Ireland those windows fill fast.
That is the gap the resale market closes. A non-member who wants to see Austria against Kosovo should not be shut out simply because they were not enrolled in a loyalty programme in the spring. Verified resale gives that supporter a legitimate seat without a season-long commitment to the membership calendar.
It also helps international buyers who could never realistically join an Austrian supporter scheme. Vienna is a popular city break and the visits of the Republic of Ireland in particular draw large numbers of travelling fans, and those supporters have little practical access to members-only sales. A trusted platform levels that field and lets distance-based supporters buy on the same footing as anyone else.
Unlike a club side, Austria do not offer a traditional season ticket for internationals, though the association operates a supporter membership. Home matches are sold match by match, usually beginning with member priority windows before any general release. That structure means the supply for a single fixture is finite and front-loaded toward the association's most loyal followers, which is why the open-sale allocation for a big night can vanish quickly even in a stadium this size.
Understanding those tiers helps you plan. The table below shows the broad sale layers an Austria home fixture typically passes through, with indicative resale ranges once each layer sells out. Actual entry points vary by opponent and category.
| Sale Layer | Who It Serves | Typical Resale Range Once Sold Out (GBP) |
|---|---|---|
| Member priority window | Association members and loyalty supporters | £45 – £160 |
| General sale, standard category | Wider public, first come first served | £35 – £110 |
| General sale, premium category | Central and mid-tier seats | £85 – £240 |
| Hospitality release | Corporate and premium buyers | £220 – £1,050+ |
Ranges are indicative of the secondary market and may change as each fixture approaches.
Austria stage their home matches at the Ernst-Happel-Stadion in Vienna, and the logic of choosing a seat is straightforward once you know the ground. The loudest support gathers behind the goals, the premium prices sit on the central sideline, and the upper tiers trade a little closeness for a wider view. Choosing the right area is the difference between soaking up the atmosphere and enjoying the tactical picture. The seating plan sets out every stand in detail.
The guide below breaks down the main areas at the Ernst-Happel-Stadion, with the trade-offs that matter when you buy.
| Area | Best For | Price Bracket | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lower tier, behind the goal | Atmosphere and vocal support | Lower to mid | Where the most vocal Austrian support gathers and the noise is loudest. Close to pitch level, though the running track adds a little distance. |
| Lower tier, sideline | Closeness to the action | Mid to high | Along the touchline near the technical areas. Good for individual duels, though the full shape is harder to read. |
| Upper tier, central | The complete tactical view | High | Elevated and central, the premium vantage point for reading the whole pitch and both penalty areas. |
| Upper tier, wings | A wide view at better value | Lower to mid | Higher and toward the corners, but the panorama is superb and the price is friendlier. |
| Premium and hospitality seats | Comfort and added service | Highest | Padded seating with lounge access. The most expensive route but the most comfortable matchday. |
The Ernst-Happel-Stadion is a large, historic bowl with a running track around the pitch, so the lower tier sits a little further back than at a dedicated football ground, and the upper tiers offer a fine elevated view. On a full international night the sheer scale of a 50,000 crowd generates a formidable atmosphere. When you compare listings, anchor your choice on the described area and price band rather than a memorised block number, and remember that the seats behind the goals are where the singing starts.
Three of Austria's six league phase fixtures are away from home, and each is a distinctive trip. Austria travel to the Republic of Ireland and Kosovo in October before closing the group against Israel. Away allocations for national team matches are set by the host association and the visiting association, and they are always a fraction of home demand.
The table below summarises what travelling supporters need to know for Austria's three away nights: Republic of Ireland vs Austria tickets in Dublin, Kosovo vs Austria tickets in Pristina, and Israel vs Austria tickets at a neutral venue confirmed nearer the date.
| Away Fixture | Typical Away Section | Access Notes | Travel Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Republic of Ireland vs Austria (1 Oct) | Visitor sector, segregated | Away allocation via the Austrian association, strict segregation | Host city Dublin at the Aviva Stadium, a large and atmospheric ground. |
| Kosovo vs Austria (4 Oct) | Visitor sector, segregated | Photo ID may be matched to the buyer on some tickets | Host city Pristina, a testing away night against a rising side. |
| Israel vs Austria (17 Nov) | Designated visitor block | Away allocation limited, strict segregation | Israel stage home fixtures at a neutral venue, confirmed nearer the date. Check the host city before booking travel. |
Away sections sell out fastest of all because the allocation is so small. Supporters set on travelling should treat these as the first tickets to secure rather than the last, and the trip to Dublin in particular will be in heavy demand.
Each of the three trips carries its own character. Dublin, on 1 October, is the pick for many, a night at the Aviva Stadium against a Republic of Ireland side whose own support fills the ground, so the visiting allocation is worth securing early. Pristina, three days later, is a compact and passionate ground where Kosovo have grown into a competitive side on their own patch, a very different kind of away night. The closing fixture against Israel is the unusual one, a match staged at Israel's neutral home venue rather than in the country itself, so plans should stay flexible until the host city is confirmed. For all three, the away section is segregated and finite, and demand from Austrian supporters has risen with the side's fortunes, so the earlier a fan commits the better the chance of a seat at all.
One point is worth noting for the Israel fixture. Israel have staged their home matches at neutral venues away from home in recent seasons, so the host city for Israel against Austria will be confirmed closer to the date rather than assumed. Travelling supporters should hold off on booking flights and accommodation until the venue is announced. The trips to Dublin and Pristina fall within four days of each other in early October, so a committed follower could pair the two into a single journey, though each away allocation is limited, so the earlier a supporter secures a seat the better the position and the lower the risk of missing out entirely.
Not every supporter wants the same night out. Some chase noise and colour, others want the clearest tactical view, and a family group has priorities of its own. The table below matches the common matchday goals to the most suitable area of the Ernst-Happel-Stadion, so you can buy with your actual reason for going in mind. The same logic applies to a calmer Vienna night such as Austria vs Kosovo tickets.
| What You Want | Best Option | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Best atmosphere | Lower tier behind the goal | The heart of the vocal Austrian support, where the songs start and the noise builds. |
| Best view of the play | Upper tier, central | Elevation plus a central line gives you the whole pitch and both penalty areas. |
| Family-friendly | Upper tier, wings | Calmer surroundings, a wide view and more forgiving prices for a group. |
| Premium experience | Hospitality seats | Padded seating, indoor access and catering for a comfortable evening. |
| Better value | Upper tier corner | The friendliest prices in the ground while keeping a genuine matchday feel. |
Austria stage their home matches at the Ernst-Happel-Stadion in Vienna, the national stadium and the largest ground in the country. Holding around 50,000, its seating plan shows how the tiers are arranged, and named after the celebrated Austrian coach Ernst Happel, it has been the home of the national side for generations and carries a deep sense of history, having staged European finals and countless memorable internationals.
The stadium is a ground built for the grandest occasions. Its scale and its steep upper tiers generate a formidable noise on a full international night, and the Austrian support fill it with colour and song, roaring the side on. A running track rings the pitch, a feature of the classic European national stadiums, and while it adds a little distance in the lower tier, the sense of occasion at a full Ernst-Happel more than makes up for it.
The ground has hosted some of the sport's grandest nights, including a European Championship final and finals of the leading continental club competitions, a mark of the regard in which it is held. For big fixtures Austria occasionally play elsewhere in the country, though Vienna and the Ernst-Happel remain the principal home, and the association confirms the venue for each fixture in advance.
Vienna itself is one of Europe's most rewarding capitals to visit, a city of grand architecture, coffee houses and music that rewards a longer stay. Public transport serves the ground directly, with the U-Bahn stopping close to the stadium and the city centre a short journey away, though supporters should allow extra time on a sell-out night. Many visitors fold a fixture into a weekend in a city that has become a favourite destination for football travellers.
Because the Ernst-Happel is the principal home of the national side, planning a trip is straightforward once the venue is confirmed. The surrounding area, transport links and gate arrangements are all known quantities, and the resale market for a specific fixture tends to sharpen as the date nears. The full seating plan is worth a look before you choose your stand.
For supporters who want more than a seat, the Ernst-Happel-Stadion offers hospitality that turns a fixture into a full evening. These range from a shared lounge with catering to private boxes with a dedicated host, and they sell through premium channels that price well above standard admission. The appeal is comfort, service and a guaranteed indoor base on a cold November night.
The table below outlines the broad hospitality tiers an Austria home fixture typically offers, drawing on the kinds of packages the Ernst-Happel provides. Contents vary by fixture and provider.
| Package | What It Includes | Typical Price Range (GBP) |
|---|---|---|
| Lounge hospitality | Premium seat, shared lounge access, catering and a bar before and after the match | £220 – £500 |
| Club seating | Padded central seat with dedicated entrance and lounge service | £420 – £750 |
| Private box | Exclusive box for a group, personal host, catering and a prime central position | £750 – £1,050+ |
Hospitality inventory is limited and tends to sell early for the marquee fixtures, so buyers set on a package should move well ahead of the crowd.
Buying on a resale market should feel simple, and the process below breaks it into eight clear stages. Follow them in order and you move from browsing to a confirmed seat without guesswork.
Step1
Find your fixture
Start by choosing the Austria match you want, whether it is a home night at the Ernst-Happel-Stadion or one of the away trips. Confirm the date and opponent so you are looking at the correct listing before anything else.
Step2
Set up your account
Take a moment to create an account so your order and delivery details are stored securely in one place. It speeds up checkout and makes tracking your tickets far easier later.
Step3
Compare categories and areas
Weigh up the stands and price categories against what you want from the night. A behind-the-goal seat delivers atmosphere while a central berth gives the tactical view, so match the area to your priority.
Step4
Check the listing detail
Read each listing carefully for the exact section, quantity and any seller notes. Details such as whether seats are together or the delivery format are set out here, so review them before you decide.
Step5
Add your tickets to the basket
Once a listing matches your budget and preferred area, add it to your basket. The seats are held for you while you move through to payment, so there is no rush to complete every field at once.
Step6
Pay through secure checkout
Complete the purchase using the protected payment system, where your card details are handled through encrypted channels. Your order is covered by the money-back guarantee from the moment it is confirmed.
Step7
Receive your confirmation
A confirmation lands as soon as the order goes through, setting out your fixture, seats and the delivery method. Keep it safe as your reference right through to matchday.
Step8
Track your order to delivery
Follow the progress of your tickets using the track order tool until they reach you in the format you chose. You will know exactly when they are on the way and when they arrive.
That is the whole journey. Eight steps from a first search to a seat in a roaring Ernst-Happel-Stadion, with cover at every stage. Buying earlier tends to give you the widest choice of stands and the strongest chance of seats together, which matters for a group or a family, so there is rarely a reason to leave it late for the fixtures you care about.
Not every match in the group moves at the same pace. Some sell out within hours of general release while others hold inventory closer to the date. Knowing which is which helps you judge when to buy rather than gamble on a price that may never fall. The table below ranks the Austria fixtures by how quickly the seats tend to disappear. Austria vs Israel tickets sit behind it as the group opener in Vienna.
| Fixture | Why It Moves Fast |
|---|---|
| Austria vs Republic of Ireland (14 Nov) | The standout home night, a huge Irish travelling support and a potential group decider in the final round. |
| Austria vs Israel (24 Sep) | The home opener of the campaign, the first chance to see a World Cup side back in Vienna. |
| Austria vs Kosovo (27 Sep) | The second home fixture in four days, a match Austria will expect to win to build momentum. |
| Republic of Ireland vs Austria (1 Oct) | The away trip to the Aviva Stadium in Dublin that Austria fans will travel for. |
| Kosovo vs Austria (4 Oct) | An away trip to Pristina, with the Austria allocation clearing quickly. |
Delivery format depends on the fixture and the individual listing, and the method is always stated before you buy. Most Austria tickets now arrive digitally, though other formats still appear depending on the seller. Always read the delivery note on the listing so you know what to expect.
Whatever the format, check the listing notes for timing. Some digital tickets release only in the days before kick-off, which is normal for national team fixtures and nothing to worry about.
A smooth entry into the Ernst-Happel-Stadion comes down to preparation. On a full international night the approaches and concourses are busy, and a little planning saves a lot of stress at the turnstile. The three points below cover what matters most.
Gates typically open well before kick-off, and arriving early is the single wisest decision you can make. The U-Bahn and the security checks both slow as the crowd swells, so reaching the ground an hour or more ahead lets you soak up the pre-match build-up rather than rush it. The atmosphere in the Prater park around the stadium before a big night is part of the occasion in its own right.
Bring photo identification, as some national team tickets are matched to the buyer's name and may be checked on entry. If your ticket is digital, arrive with a charged phone and the barcode already loaded so you are not hunting for a signal in a crowd of thousands. Screenshots do not always scan, so keep the ticket in the format the seller supplied.
Large bags are restricted and often prohibited entirely, so travel light and leave anything bulky behind. Prohibited items include glass bottles, flares and any object stewards judge a risk to safety. Checking the venue's current bag rules before you set off is the surest way to avoid being turned away at the gate.

| Full name | Austria national football team (Osterreich) |
| Nickname | Das Team, the Wunderteam |
| Governing body | Austrian Football Association, founded 1904 |

| Head coach | Ralf Rangnick |
| Captain | David Alaba |
| 2026/27 competition | UEFA Nations League, League B, Group B3 |
Austrian football has a rich and distinguished history, a nation that set the standard for the European game in the 1930s and has produced fine sides and players across the generations. From the fabled Wunderteam to the modern side under Ralf Rangnick, the game runs deep in the country. The eras below trace the story of the national team.
The Wunderteam of the early 1930s, built around the great Matthias Sindelar, was one of the most celebrated sides of its age, playing a stylish and inventive brand of football that drew admirers across Europe. A run to the semi-finals of the 1934 World Cup marked the peak of an era that gave Austrian football a heritage few nations can match.
Austria enjoyed another fine era in the 1950s, reaching third place at the 1954 World Cup, still the country's best finish at the finals. A remarkable quarter-final win over the hosts Switzerland, in a match of extraordinary drama, remains one of the great occasions in Austrian football history.
The 1978 World Cup produced the most famous single moment in Austrian football, the win over West Germany in Cordoba that lives on in the national memory. The decades that followed brought fewer highs, with Austria often falling short in qualifying, but the groundwork was steadily laid for the revival that the modern era would deliver.
The modern Austria side has restored the country to the top table. A run to the last 16 of Euro 2020 was followed by a superb Euro 2024, where Ralf Rangnick's team won a group containing France and the Netherlands, and qualification for the 2026 World Cup ended a 28-year absence from the finals. It is the finest era Austrian football has known in decades.
Austria have produced players of real distinction across the decades, from the legends of the Wunderteam to the modern internationals. The players below represent different chapters of the national story, and their standards are the inheritance the current side carries forward.
| Legend | Role | Contribution | Milestones |
|---|---|---|---|
| Matthias Sindelar | Forward | The Paper Man, the finest Austrian player of all time and the talisman of the Wunderteam, an elegant and inventive forward admired across the game. | 1934 World Cup semi-finals |
| Herbert Prohaska | Midfielder | A gifted midfielder and a hero of the Cordoba generation, one of the finest Austrian players of the modern era and a symbol of the 1978 side. | 1978 World Cup |
| Toni Polster | Forward | A prolific goalscorer and one of the country's record marksmen, a reliable source of goals across a long and celebrated international career. | Record goalscorer of his era |
| David Alaba | Defender | The modern captain and one of the finest Austrian players in history, a versatile and decorated defender who has won the foremost honours in the club game. | Captain, Euro 2024 |
| Marko Arnautovic | Forward | A talismanic forward and one of the country's record goalscorers, a mainstay of the modern side whose experience has driven the recent revival. | Record goalscorer |
Austria have not won a major international trophy, yet few nations can match the pedigree of their golden eras, and the modern side has restored real standing. The achievements and best finishes below are drawn from the competitive record and cross-referenced against recognised football sources.
| Competition | Best Finish |
|---|---|
| World Cup | Third place (1954), semi-finals (1934) |
| Olympic football | Silver (1936) |
| European Championship | Group winners (2024), round of 16 (2020) |
Read in full, the record explains why Austrian supporters hold their side to a higher standard than its current tier suggests. This is a nation that finished third at a World Cup, reached a World Cup semi-final and, in the Wunderteam, produced a side many regard as one of the finest of the pre-war era. The modern team has restored that standing, winning a Euro group ahead of France and the Netherlands and returning to the World Cup after a generation away. That pedigree sits behind every home fixture, and the mismatch between what the side has just achieved and where it now sits in the Nations League is the story of the season. For the supporter buying a ticket, the appeal is watching a genuine tournament team play matches it is expected to win, in one of the classic national stadiums of the European game.
Austrian football's history is written as much in its rivalries as its results, and this group brings a well-supported visitor to test the promotion push. The fixtures below carry a weight that a routine international never could.
No fixture stirs Austria like a meeting with Germany. The rivalry between the neighbours is the fiercest on the Austrian calendar, defined above all by the win at Cordoba in 1978, a result so cherished that it has its own place in the national story. Every meeting since carries the weight of that history, and though Germany sit outside this group, the fixture remains the emotional benchmark of the Austrian game.
Italy are another storied opponent for Austria, the two nations having met many times across the decades in qualifying and at tournaments, including a tight knockout tie at a recent Euros. The proximity of the two countries and their long shared football history give every meeting an edge that the table alone cannot explain.
The meetings with the Republic of Ireland are the standout of Group B3, in large part for the travelling support the Irish bring wherever they play. Two nations with passionate followings and a promotion race between them, the fixtures could decide who goes up, and the return in Vienna in the final round could prove pivotal. It is the marquee occasion of the group.
Austria have moved between the top tiers of the Nations League, and this season's spell in League B is a setback the side will look to correct quickly. The table below recaps their campaigns, offering context for what the 2026/27 edition means to a World Cup side determined to bounce straight back.
| Edition | Summary |
|---|---|
| 2018/19 | A League B campaign in the early editions of the competition. |
| 2020/21 | Austria compete in League B among the middle tier of nations. |
| 2022/23 | A League A campaign as Austria tested themselves among the leading nations. |
| 2024/25 | A campaign that ended in a drop to League B for this edition. |
This edition carries a particular weight. Austria arrive as a World Cup side and the clear favourites for Group B3, determined to win promotion straight back to the top tier. Winning Group B3 means automatic promotion to League A, while the runners-up drop into the Nations League play-offs in March 2028. The Republic of Ireland provide the marquee test, while Israel and Kosovo will both look to spring a surprise, so topping the group is a task to be taken seriously rather than assumed. These six matches are far more than a warm-up for the World Cup that awaits.
Ralf Rangnick leads a squad rich in Bundesliga quality and tournament experience, built around a core that has just secured a return to the World Cup. The table below lists recognised players, their positions and approximate market values from Transfermarkt. Clubs and values move during the transfer window, so treat the figures as a guide rather than a fixed snapshot.
| Player | Position | Club (approx. 2025/26) | Approx. Value (GBP) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Alexander Schlager | Goalkeeper | Red Bull Salzburg | £5m |
| Patrick Pentz | Goalkeeper | Brondby | £3m |
| David Alaba | Defender, captain | Real Madrid | £15m |
| Kevin Danso | Defender | Tottenham Hotspur | £20m |
| Philipp Lienhart | Defender | Freiburg | £10m |
| Stefan Posch | Defender | Mainz 05 | £8m |
| Marco Friedl | Defender | Werder Bremen | £10m |
| Konrad Laimer | Midfielder | Bayern Munich | £22m |
| Marcel Sabitzer | Midfielder | Borussia Dortmund | £18m |
| Xaver Schlager | Midfielder | RB Leipzig | £18m |
| Nicolas Seiwald | Midfielder | RB Leipzig | £20m |
| Christoph Baumgartner | Midfielder | RB Leipzig | £22m |
| Patrick Wimmer | Midfielder | Wolfsburg | £12m |
| Paul Wanner | Midfielder | PSV Eindhoven | £18m |
| Marko Arnautovic | Forward | Red Star Belgrade | £3m |
| Michael Gregoritsch | Forward | Augsburg | £6m |
The spine of the side is the envy of many larger nations. David Alaba remains the captain and a leader of vast experience, Konrad Laimer and Nicolas Seiwald drive the midfield with energy, and Christoph Baumgartner and Marcel Sabitzer provide goals and craft from deep. In Paul Wanner the side has one of the brightest young talents in Europe, while the experience of Marko Arnautovic offers a proven presence in attack. It is a squad far too strong for League B on paper, and supporters buy tickets as much to watch these names in the national colours as for the fixtures themselves.
What sets this Austria side apart is the balance Ralf Rangnick has built. His teams are known for their energy and pressing, and the squad is ideally suited to it, packed with athletic, technically sound midfielders drawn largely from the German game where that style is second nature. There is experience in Alaba and Arnautovic, a settled core in Laimer, Seiwald and Baumgartner, and genuine emerging quality in Paul Wanner, one of the most sought-after young talents on the continent. That blend is why Austria qualified for the World Cup with games to spare and why they start Group B3 as overwhelming favourites. For the neutral and the committed alike, watching a side of this quality and cohesion at a grand old ground like the Ernst-Happel is the real draw of a home fixture in this group.
You can buy through a verified resale marketplace once the members-only and general sales have closed. Choose your fixture, compare the listed categories and complete a secure checkout covered by the money-back guarantee. It is the standard route for non-members and international supporters.
Austria play their home fixtures at the Ernst-Happel-Stadion in Vienna, the national stadium and the largest ground in the country. It is a historic 50,000-seat venue served directly by the U-Bahn, so travel and accommodation are straightforward to plan around a confirmed fixture.
The home meeting with the Republic of Ireland on 14 November is the standout, a huge Irish travelling support and a potential group decider in the final round. The home opener against Israel also sells fast. Away fixtures sell out fastest of all because the visitor allocation is so small.
Most Austria tickets arrive as mobile or e-tickets, though print-at-home, postal and local collection appear on some listings. The method is always stated before you buy. National team tickets sometimes release only in the days before kick-off, which is normal and no cause for concern.
No. While the association gives members priority in early sales, you do not need to join a supporter scheme to attend. A verified resale platform lets non-members and visitors buy a legitimate seat for any Austria fixture without a season-long commitment.
Austria begin their push for promotion this autumn, hosting the Republic of Ireland and their group rivals at the grand Ernst-Happel-Stadion, and the home support will back a World Cup side eager to return to the top tier. 1BoxOffice has connected fans with verified sellers since 2006, backing every order with a 150% money-back guarantee, so you can buy for any Austria home or away fixture with confidence and full cover from checkout to your seat. Secure your place ahead of the crowd and be there in Vienna as a tournament side chases its way back into Group B3.
