Latest information on the Austria vs Kazakhstan match lineups.
Apart from captain David Alaba, who is still recovering from a serious knee injury, manager Ralf Rangnick will be without several defenders for both Nations League matches. Kevin Danso, although he has returned to training after being unable to move to Roma due to a heart problem, will remain at Lens.
Furthermore, Leeds United's Maximilian Wober has undergone knee surgery and has been sidelined since Austria's draw with Slovenia last month. This gives Venezia centre-back Michael Svoboda his first call-up, while Marco Friedl also returns after more than two years out.
The attack will be led by veteran striker Marko Arnautovic, alongside Blackburn Rovers' Andi Weimann, who has scored three goals for the club this season, including a "Goal of the Month" goal in the derby against Burnley. On the Kazakhstan side, the squad is largely composed of local players, but they also have notable names such as Bakhtiyor Zaynutdinov of Besiktas, Ramazan Orazov of Silkeborg, and star striker Abat Aymbetov of Adana Demirspor. Aymbetov scored three goals in the Euro 2024 qualifiers and the Nations League earlier, giving the visitors hope of scoring their first goal of the season. Stanislav Cherchesov's team, currently training in Krems, Austria, will be led by Askhat Tagybergen in central midfield.

Latest football match prediction: Austria vs Kazakhstan
Beginning their campaign with two away games, Austria earned a point from a draw against Slovenia before facing Norway on the second matchday of the Nations League. Under coach Ralf Rangnick, the team had lost only three of their 14 matches in Oslo. Although Marcel Sabitzer equalized after an early goal, they ultimately went home empty-handed after Erling Haaland's late strike.
Austria, despite impressing at Euro 2024, had previously been relegated from League A and are aiming for a return to Europe's top flight with a talented squad. They only managed one point from five matches in their previous Nations League campaign and their last successful appearance in the tournament was in June 2022, when they beat Croatia 3-0.
This team has had a slow start to the year, so taking advantage of home field advantage this month is crucial to turning things around. After hosting Kazakhstan, a team they last met in World Cup qualifiers 12 years ago, Austria will be looking to overturn their September result against an ambitious Norway side.
Kazakhstan have yet to score in their four previous encounters with Austria, all within the last two years. Having been promoted from the third division in 2022, they played their first Nations League B match last month, drawing 0-0 with Norway. Stanislav Cherchesov's side have shown clear signs of improvement, with six wins in 10 Euro qualifying matches, but suffered a heavy defeat to Greece in the playoff round.
Kazakhstan were promoted from League C with two wins against Slovakia, but entered these October matches with a heavy 0-3 defeat against Slovenia, where Benjamin Sesko scored a hat-trick. They currently sit fourth in the standings and risk automatic relegation. Despite signs of improvement, Kazakhstan remain ranked 109th in the FIFA rankings and have yet to score a goal at League B level. Given the current situation, Austria need to capitalize on the opportunity to secure all three points on Thursday.
