Austria vs Kosovo Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 27th September 2026

The match between Austria and Kosovo will kick off on Sunday at Ernst Happel Stadion. This is a match in round two of the Nations League B group stage this season. Having never played each other in the Nations League B in the 21st century, this is the first time Austria comes up against Kosovo in this tournament as of late. Thus, any eventual h2h stats stems from meetings in cup matches or friendlies.

Austria enter their upcoming game placed as number 23 in the FIFA world ranking. There is a bit of a gap to opponents Kosovo, who enter the game ranked number 78 in the world.

After the opening round of the group matches Austria are number one on three, while Kosovo have three as number two. Missing out on three points in their upcoming Nations League B group match will be next to scandalous for Austria. Assuming a few more tough matches are coming up, securing a win here on home soil is essential.

Austria show off very admirable numbers from their past ten matches, as they scored 2.1 goals on average per match. That makes a total of 21 goals, whilst they allowed eight goals against, for an average of 0.8 per outing. They pulled off three clean sheets.

Coming away from their next Nations League B match with anything but a defeat for Kosovo would be a massive surprise. It looks like a question of simply trying to minimize the defeat everyone expects them to suffer.

Kosovo scored one goals, conceded zero and kept their opponents from scoring one times in ten matches.

Austria vs Kosovo Prediction

Austria Form

Austria delivered a bit of everything as their last three matches resulted in a win, a loss and a draw. An encounter with Algeria brought a 3-3 draw, which was followed by a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Spain. Their most recent game had them back on the winning trail, as they beat Israel by 3-1. Austria won half of their previous six internationals, while also drawing one. They lost two, while they scored ten and conceded ten goals.

Kosovo Form

Kosovo won twice in their last three matches, but began by losing 2-1 against Czech Republic, before beating Andorra 3-0. Another win followed, this time by 1-0 against Ireland. Kosovo managed a decent return of three wins in their last six internationals, in which they scored ten while also conceding seven times. They also experienced one draw and two defeats.

We fully expect Austria to claim a win against Kosovo, but we believe the visitors have enough resistance in them to minimize the expected defeat.

Amazingly, Austria are on a streak of 13 home matches without defeat.
