LiontipsArgentina vs Austria: betting tip (cf 1.88) and bets on the World Cup match
Command Analysis
Current form
After the World Cup qualifying tournament ended, Argentina won all seven friendly matches played with a total score of 21.:1. The result is more than impressive, but it should be noted that we played matches only against opponents who were noticeably inferior in class. In the first round of the World Cup group stage, the Argentines played against Algeria, a strong African team (3-0). Messi said his weighty word, scoring a hat-trick. The 38-year-old veteran caught up with Miroslav Klose in scoring goals at the World Championships (16). Regarding the match, we note that Lionel Scaloni's team did not allow the opponent to create almost anything at their own goal: the Algerians did not strike a single shot on target, they played only 0.33 on expected goals (xG). Today they have to play against Austria, which relies on total pressure in the manner of the game, Scaloni will have to change tactics, it will be necessary act faster to get out from under pressure.
Disqualifications and injuries
Balerdi is injured, and Tagliafico's return to the field is questionable.

Provisional squad: E. Martinez – Molina, Romero, Otamendi, Medina – McAllister, De Paul, Fernandez – Messi, Alvarez, Almada.
Current form
Austria came to the start of the World Cup on a five-match winless streak, and there were also difficult opponents. We can recall the 1-0 victory over South Korea in a friendly match. In the first round of the group stage, the Austrians played Jordan and confidently confirmed the status of the favorite (3:1). The usual tactics of Ralph Rangnik with total pressure gave a positive result. However, it is worth noting that until the 76th minute the score on the scoreboard was 1:1. Then the opponent scored an own goal, and Arnautovich scored the third goal from the penalty spot in stoppage time. I had to play number one against Jordan for almost the entire match, opening up the opponent's tight defense. This is not the best scenario for the Austrians, who are focused on pressure. Obviously, Argentina will have a slightly different game scenario in which the Austrians can make full use of their strengths.
Disqualifications and injuries
Baumgartner and Posh are on the injured list.
Interesting betting trends
- In six of the last seven matches, the Austrian national team players fouled more often than their opponents.

Tip and bets
In the opening matches, Argentina and Austria expectedly confirmed their status as favorites, defeating rivals who were inferior in class. We managed to find approaches to the dense defense of the opponents, there were no problems with implementation. Today, in terms of tactics, there is a completely different game ahead. Scaloni's players will habitually rely on possession of the ball, and the Austrians will be able to make full use of their pressure. In this scenario, it is far from certain that the Argentines will be able to easily get to someone else's gate on a regular basis. At the same time, Rangnik's wards have no problems with the implementation, it is no coincidence that the national team is now on a six-match winless streak. We believe that Austria can surprise in this match and score at least one point.
Our betting tip is an Asian handicap (+1) for Austria by a factor of 1.88
Bet on the total
When choosing a total bet, one cannot ignore the fact that both Argentina and Austria do not allow their opponents to create much at their gates. Scaloni's team has conceded only one goal in the last nine matches after qualifying. The Austrians have only conceded two goals in the same period after qualifying. We don't expect more than two goals scored in the upcoming game.
The second bet is a total of less than 2.5 goals with a coefficient of 1.89
Betting on corners
Matches involving the Austrian national team do not have high corner scores, which is due to the tactical structure of the game. So, in the six previous matches of the Austrians, only once more than eight serves from the corner flag were completed. Based on this trend, we recommend another option for betting on a match.
The betting tip is that the total number of corners is less than 8.5 with a coefficient of 1.70
