Slovenia was one of the most pleasing surprises in this year's EURO. They came out from the group with England, Denmark, and Serbia, but in the 1/8 final, Slovenia lost after a penalty shootout against Portugal. It's interesting to mention that all Slovenian games finished with a draw, but that was enough to go that far. Now, Matjaz Kek's team will turn its attention to UEFA Nations League - League B, where Slovenia have a solid chance to fight for promotion to the higher tier.
Austria was also good at the previous EURO. They won six points in the group, but Ralf Ragnick's team lost in the first game in the knockout phase 2-1 against Turkey. However, Austria probably deserved much more from that match as they finished with an xG of 2.73, while Turkey had only 0.87. Football is cruel sometimes, so Ragnick's side finished the competition with a bitter taste.
Slovenia vs Austria pick: Austria to win
Slovenia and Austria have met three times, and all the games have happened in the previous six years. Interestingly, Austria won all of them. Ralf Ragnick's side seems better than Slovenia at the moment, and they should win again on Friday.

Slovenia team news
Matjaz Kek hasn't changed the squad much since the EURO. The only new player from the previous competition on the squad is Erik Janza, a 31-year-old left-back who is playing at Gornik Zabrze. Interestingly, Matjaz Kek also called up Nino Zugelj from Bodo/Glimt, although the winger didn't play for the last few weeks due to a muscle injury.

Austria team news
The biggest problem for Austria ahead of the game against Slovenia is defense, as Kevin Danso and Philipp Lienhart are unavailable. Compared to EURO, the new players in the squad are Alexander Schlager, Samson Baidoo, Kevin Stoger, Junior Adamu, and Arnel Jakupovic.
