Austria vs Kosovo: Group 3 Leaders Meet in Vienna

Published Sat 26 Sept

Austria and Kosovo meet in the UEFA Nations League on Sunday 27 September 2026 at Ernst-Happel-Stadion in Vienna, with both teams having won their opening match in Group 3.

Austria produce three goals against Israel

Austria began their Nations League schedule on 24 September 2026 with a 3-1 home win against Israel. Romano Schmid, who has two goals across all competitions this season, helped drive an attack that took immediate control of the group. That victory leaves Austria in first place with three points and a plus-two goal difference from their lone fixture. In their home matches in this competition, Austria hold a record of one win from one, scoring three and conceding one. Over their last five games with chance data, they have generated 1.34 expected goals per game while allowing 1.57. Their previous international outings came at the World Cup, where they lost 3-0 to Spain on 2 July 2026, drew 3-3 with Algeria on 28 June 2026, and lost 2-0 to Argentina on 22 June 2026 following an opening 3-1 win over Jordan on 17 June 2026.

Kosovo begin with a clean sheet

Kosovo arrive in Vienna occupying second place in Group 3 with three points from their opening fixture. They started the campaign on 24 September 2026 by securing a 1-0 home victory against the Republic of Ireland. That defensive display gave Kosovo a plus-one goal difference, keeping them level on points with Austria ahead of this first recorded meeting between the two sides.

Our model firmly expects an Austria win

Our model firmly expects an Austria win on Sunday. The home side showed clinical finishing in their 3-1 victory over Israel at Ernst-Happel-Stadion, where they have opened their group run with three points. Although Kosovo demonstrated defensive resilience by shutting out the Republic of Ireland, Austria's attacking output and home record give them the decisive edge in our projection.
