AUSTRIA’S DUCK
Austria have never won a match at the Euros—not when they hosted the event in 2008 and not when they played in a relatively easy group in Euro 2016, alongside Hungary and debutants Iceland. Six games, no wins and just one goal in open play. To break their duck, David Alaba-led side has been blessed with an easy group again, with yet another Euro debutant team in North Macedonia, a blow-hot-blow-cold Holland and Ukraine. Can they turn around their fortunes? Austria’s form coming into the Euro should tell you just how unlikely that is, with two losses and a draw in their last three prep games.
