Northern Ireland can be proud of their efforts in their Women’s Euro 2022 opener, but they face a tough test in their bid to claim a positive result in the tournament.
They were hunted down and defeated 4-1 by Norway’s array of attacking talents in their first ever major competition match.
Julie Nelson made history as the first ever Northern Irish goalscorer on the big stage, but her solo strike wasn’t enough to overcome the relentless surge of Norwegian bodies into their territory.
Austria can be pleased with their efforts despite a 1-0 defeat to England in the opening game of the tournament.
They will be determined to make their performance count here with three points in their sights as they aim to pounce on any mistakes from group-toppers, England and Norway.

Our prediction: Austria v Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland showed great spirit but little to suggest they have the quality to go long in this tournament.
Heart and spirit still count for something, though. They will generate a warm atmosphere in each of their games and showed they can harness that to fight back in matches. While the result was always heading in one direction, they still managed to stem the tide for spells against Norway.
Austria know they also face an uphill battle in Group A. To stand any chance of advancing to the knockout stages, they need a victory here.
Our prediction: Austria 3-1 Northern Ireland (10/1 at Bet365)
