League of Europe
The focus of Group A1 is the battle at France's home ground. Facing Austria, the previous champion France's performance this year is not as good as before, after 4 rounds it is still hard to get a win and there is no hope to win the championship, the next two games seem to be just to save face and try to get out of the bottom position to avoid the relegation doom. However, the team's core scorer Binschmar is out of action due to injury, and Kylian Mbappe is in conflict with the FA before the match due to a dispute over the distribution of portrait rights, which has dampened the team's morale. Looking back at France's last three matches, the total number of goals scored is only 2 or less, with an average of 2.5 goals, such a result is not optimistic. (Kickoff 2:45 a.m. Friday)
France's record in Group A1 is disappointing, losing to Denmark and Croatia, and only accumulating 3 points after 4 rounds without a win. In the first round of the away game, it was not until the 83rd minute that they equalized the score, 1-1 draw with Austria, for this team with many star strikers, such a result is really difficult to accept.
The house was left to rot as the team's regular starters Binschmar, midfielder Nicolas Pallot and Paul Pogba were unable to play due to injuries, while another ace, Kylian Mbappe, had a pre-match dispute with the FA over the distribution of portrait rights, which undoubtedly had an impact on the team's morale.
Meanwhile, with the major leagues and the UEFA Europa League in full swing, it is doubtful that the players will be fully committed to the UEFA Europa League. Facing the Austrian team, which is good at pressing, France will have difficulties in organizing attacks smoothly, and even if they win, it will be difficult to guarantee a big win.
Austria shows hard style
Currently with 4 points, Austria has 2 points more than France, and as long as they remain undefeated in this match, they have a good chance of avoiding relegation. As a matter of fact, under the leadership of former Manchester United manager Ranilic, the Austrian team has shown a tough style of play, and with Real Madrid stalwart Alaba as solid as a rock in the defense, it's not going to be easy for France to break through the opposing team's goal. This game may become a tug-of-war, and the low goal count may be a confident choice for bettors.
