Austria's line-up is largely unchanged from their previous Nations League games. Kevin Danso returned from a heart problem and played against Kazakhstan. However, David Alaba remains absent with a long-term injury. Marcel Sabitzer and Marko Arnautovic could be called up, but their places are uncertain after Christoph Baumgartner and Michael Gregoritsch both scored in the previous game.
For Slovenia, Tomi Horvat is absent due to injury, while Andraz Sporar is out due to poor form for Panathinaikos. Zan Vipotnik or Zan Celar could partner Benjamin Sesko – the team’s star man, who still scored despite Slovenia’s defeat to Norway, taking his tally to 16 goals for the national team.

Latest football commentary on Austria vs Slovenia
The final round of Nations League Group B3 matches will be tight as the results of the head-to-head matches between Austria, Slovenia and Norway will decide everything. Austria currently lead the group and only need a draw with Norway to be promoted to League A. However, if they lose to Slovenia, they could drop to third and have to play a play-off to avoid relegation to League C.
A 5-1 win over Norway last month put Austria in the lead, but a 1-1 draw with Slovenia leaves them vulnerable if they lose their final game. Austria will be aiming to secure their place with a win. Ralf Rangnick's side have just won 2-0 against Kazakhstan and are in good form, with a favourable head-to-head record of three wins in their last four meetings with Slovenia.
Slovenia must win to avoid the relegation playoffs. After a 4-1 defeat to Norway, their only chance of making it through the playoffs is a win over Austria. However, Slovenia have not beaten any team other than Kazakhstan in this group, and without a surprise result, they could face relegation despite narrowly reaching the quarter-finals of Euro 2024.
