The Austrian team had an impressive start to EURO 2024 , deploying a reasonable game plan that caused their opponent France to fall into a stalemate.
Austria knew how to keep the top European stars that France possessed at bay. The only goal conceded was an accident , with defender Maximilian Wober scoring an own goal.
Coach Ralf Rangnick, who failed at MU, showed that he is suitable to lead the Austrian team.
After failing in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers, finishing 4th in Europe, and then losing to Wales in the Nations League play-offs, Austria decided to part ways with coach Franco Foda.
Rangnick was chosen because of his great influence on Austrian football. More specifically, he was the teacher of the generation of players who are the pillars of the current team.
The foundation of the Austrian team is players who have been trained at the Red Bull academy, through the clubs Red Bull Salzburg and RB Leipzig.
Marcel Sabitzer, who recently led Dortmund to the Champions League final, is the leader of this generation, along with Leipzig's indispensable star Baumgartner and Bayern Munich midfielder Konrad Laimer.
In Rangnick's tactics, Laimer - Sabitzer - Baumgartner formed a triangle in the midfield area, with the task of deploying the ball and organizing attacks from the wings to the center.
Many other Austrian players have also grown up in German football, influenced by the "gegenpressing" mindset that Rangnick pioneered over the past two decades.
Austria have not beaten Poland in the 21st century, after 5 meetings (lost 3, drawn 2). Coach Rangnick is determined to change this result in the battle in Berlin.
If Austria received a lot of praise after losing to France, Poland disappointed against the Netherlands with many key players sitting at home watching TV.
Poland could not keep the ball and allowed the Netherlands to continuously shoot (20 times). If Memphis had not been unlucky with clear chances, the "Orange whirlwind" could have won by more than 2-1.
The return of Robert Lewandowski is expected to add more attacking power to Poland.
Coach Michal Probierz plans to make a slight adjustment to the system, from 3-5-2 to 3-5-1-1 to compete in the middle of the field. 19-year-old midfielder Kacper Urbanski will play behind Lewandowski.
In Berlin it's a battle for the chance to go through. Austria have the potential to make the difference and take the three points thanks to Rangnick's football.
Force:
Poland: Salamon has a slight injury but is likely to be able to start. Lewandowski returns.
Austria: Fully staffed.

Poland (3-5-1-1): Szczesny; Bednarek, Dawidowicz, Kiwior; Frankowski, Moder, Romanczuk, Zielinski, Zalewski; Urbanski; Lewandowski.
