Moldova hosts Austria in round 4 of the World Cup qualification. The match will be played on Wednesday, September 1st at Stadionul Zimbru (Chişinău)
Moldova lost nine out of ten matches in the Euro qualifiers. The results in the Nations League were no better: earning only one point in sis games, the national team left Division C and returned to the weakest tier. Coaches are changing, but they simply do not have human resources to build a combat-ready team. In the current World Cup qualification, the Moldovans tied 1-1 against another underdog, the Faroe Islands, and suffered two major defeats from Denmark (8-0) and Israel (1-4). Yes, Sheriff Tiraspol rewrote the club’s history, reaching the main round of the Champions League. But there are no local players in its roster (at least for European competitions). It is not surprising that Roberto Bordin invited only a couple of club players from Tiraspol.

Austria left a good impression in the last European Championship. In the group stage, Franco Foda's won not only against North Macedonia but also against Ukraine. However, second place forced them to play against Italy in the 1/8 finals. And the Austrians offered real battle to Squadra Azzurra, which beat all opponents in the group stage (0-0 in regulation time and 1-2 in extra time). As you can see, so the future champion was very close to relegation. Well, the national team of Austria is clearly in good shape and intends to continue to prove its class. The Boys need to rectify the situation in their group. In the spring, they gained only one victory in three qualifying matches, beating the Faroe Islands. In addition, Austria tied in Scotland (2-2) and lost to Denmark with a 0-4 score at home.
In 2003, the Moldovans managed to beat the Austrians. But Das Team invariably won in the remaining five games, including in the qualification for the last World Cup (2-0 at home and 0-1 away). Austria is now much stronger, and most importantly, it has to catch up with competitors. So, we are waiting for a convincing victory of the visitors.
Prediction for the match: Austria to win with -1.5 handicap
