Beitar Jerusalem
- Beitar Jerusalem are in mixed form, having won one, drawn two and lost two of their last five matches.
- Almog Cohen has done a good job of making Beitar a more structured and pragmatic unit since taking over on 1 July 2026, but their form is still a mixed bag.
- They beat AEK Larnaca 1-0 in their most recent match.
- Beitar, on the other hand, will absorb the pressure, and can transition into more direct attacks when the game opens up.
FK Austria Wien
- FK Austria Wien are in good form, having won four and drawn one of their last five fixtures, including a four-match winning streak in the current series.
- Austria Wien's record of seven wins, two draws and one defeat from their last 10 matches in all competitions pips Beitar's four wins, three draws and three defeats from their previous 10.
- Stephan Helm has been at the helm of Austria Wien since June 2024, and he has the freedom to play a variety of different systems, although his preferred structure is usually a back-three, with wing-backs either side of the three, stretching the pitch.
Key Players
- Beitar's Omer Atzili has scored two goals in two UEFA Conference League qualification matches, and two of Beitar's six goals in their last five.
- Austria Wien's Florian Wustinger has netted one goal in two games in UEFA Conference League qualification.
Betting Insights
- Although the market odds of 1.72 for the side look attractive, they are a team that simply can't be trusted with their odds-on odds.
- Austria Wien are a slight overpriced 4.6 to win, and the draw is priced at 3.65, but we feel the Austrians are more likely to make it through this leg at the end of 90 minutes.
- Austria are conceding just 0.70 goals per-game across all competitions, which looks much better than Beitar's 1.60, so we're taking both teams to score - No and under 2.5 goals in the match at 1.87 and 1.83, respectively.
Prediction
If Austria Wien can control the flow of the game and hold their shape, they will dominate the play, but if Beitar can nick possession, it could be a scrappy game.
