Austria will be beginning their campaign for the Euro 2024 trophy against a Didier Deschamps-coached France on Tuesday. They will be missing their captain David Alaba who has been sidelined due to injury. Given the circumstances, Austria will need to put up a miraculous performance to beat France on the UEFA stage. They have shown some great form in their last seven games, winning six times and drawing just once. They have beaten some strong European sides like Serbia, Turkey and Germany. Their only draw came earlier this month against Switzerland. Having taken the lead in the fifth minute of the match, Austria were unable to maintain the lead for long, eventually ending the game 1-1. Christoph Baumgartner had scored the only goal for the Austrian side.
The Austria versus France group fixture will take place at the Merkur Spiel Arena on June 18. Boasting a talent-rich squad, the Frenchmen are one of the favourites to win this competition. They had a poor run in the 2020 edition, crashing out in the Round of 16 against Switzerland. Despite leading 3-1 in that match, the Swiss squad were able to level the game in the dying stages. Having sent the match to penalties, Switzerland advanced to the quarter-finals after beating the Frenchmen 5-4. France will now be looking to redeem themselves in the ongoing edition.
