- Venue: Red Bull Arena (Leipzig)
In the last game of the EURO 1/8 Finals, Austria and Turkey will face off at Red Bull Arena in Leipzig.
Before the start of the tournament, few expected Austria to win the really tough group D with France, Netherlands, and Poland, especially after losing the first game against France 1:0. However, they managed to do it after winning the following two games and are now the bookies favor them to advance to the next stage of the tournament over Turkey. If they reach the 1/4 Finals, that would be their biggest success ever on EURO. Currently, Austria is the 8th favorite to win the title, with odds around 17.
Turkey excelled in the Qualifiers, finishing at the top of their group in front of one of the better national teams in the World in recent years, Croatia. In EURO, although they secured six points and a spot in the knockout phase, their performance was not particularly impressive. That was especially true in the last game against the Czech Republic, where they barely won despite having an extra player for most of the match. In contrast to Austria, Turkey has a high odds of 65 to win the EURO title.
Austria vs Turkey pick: Austria to win
Even before the EURO started, Austria were excellent in the friendlies, beating teams like Germany, Serbia, Slovakia, and Turkey. In the EURO, Austria lost their first match 1:0 against France but definitely did not disappoint. After a loss, they were excellent against Poland and Netherlands while scoring six goals in total! Yes, Netherlands didn't need points from that match, but they still played with most of their starting eleven, and Austria still won.
While Austria impressed, we cannot say the same for Turkey. They beat Georgia but showed massive defensive flaws in a match that could have gone either way. Then Portugal easily beat them 3:0, but in our opinion, their worst game was against Czech Republic despite winning 2:1.
As we said, these teams met in the EURO preparation period back in March 2024. In that match, Austria simply hammered Turkey, winning 6:1, although at the home stadium in Vienna. Considering all the above, we believe the Austrians are much closer to winning the upcoming game.

Turkey team news
Turkey will have a massive absence for this match because their star player and team captain, Hakan Calhanoglu, will be unavailable with a one-game suspension. With him out, we might see Salih Ozcan, Ismail Yuksek and Orkun Kokcu in the middle. On the other hand, Abulkerim Bardakci served his one-game suspension and will be available.
After a 2:1 win over Czech Republic, coach Vincenzo Montella spoke to the media. He was happy with a win, saying they proved the critics wrong by securing the knockout stage. Even though he was happy with a win, he implied they needed to do better and exploit an extra player more.
