Ireland national football team takes on the visitors Austria national football team at “Aviva Stadium” in the matchday six of the Europe’s Qualifiers Group stage for the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia. The game will be played in Dublin on Sunday, June 11th.
Ireland plays much in 2017, having conducted four clashes covering one draw, two defeats and single win in its recent match vs. Uruguay with 3:1 scoreline on the 4th of June. Martin O’Neill‘s side goes through the qualifying stage unbeaten so far: in five matches the team picked up 11 points with 7-3 goal difference and shares the first-second places with Serbia in the Group D. The Irish conducted two encounters at their home field in the qualifying competition recording 1:0 triumph over Georgia and 0:0 draw vs. Wales in them.

Austrian side conducted two matches in 2017 resulting in2:0 win over Moldova and 1:1 draw against Finland. In the qualification campaign to the World Cup the Austrians are on the edge of failure as after the first lap the team shares the third-fourth places in the Group D with Wales having taken seven points with 8-7 goal difference being four points behind the group’s leading duet. And now Austria cannot allow itself losing the rest of the games in the qualification as it will practically disable them to pass through to the Mundial. Marcel Koller‘s team played twice on the road in this cyclegetting2:1 win vs. Georgia and 2:3 loss to Serbia.
The Irish defeated Austrians on the road in the reverse fixture with 1:0 scoreline. In the upcoming game the hosts may play on the break as Austria badly needs a win in the matchup despite the fact that it is the away clash. I believe that the Irish will pick up points in the forthcoming encounter and practically knock out one of their rivals in a fight for the first two places in the Group D.
Prediction for the match: Ireland to win with 0.0 Asian handicap.
