It took Turkey a late winner against 10-man Czech Republic on matchday three to get to the knockouts. They finished second in Group F with a couple of wins over Georgia and the Czech Republic. However, they were bulldozed by Portugal in a 3-0 defeat sandwiched between their two wins.

Austria have been excellent in this tournament and will look to continue that against Turkey. They play aggressive pressing football and are a much better team on paper than their opponents in the knockout stage. Therefore, we believe that Austria will have the edge over Turkey.

Austria have an exceptional setup and under Ralf Rangnick they have played a very attacking brand of football. They can very well start the game with a bang, considering Turkey’s leaky defence from the last three games. We expect Austria to open the scoring in Leipzig.

Austria vs Turkey: Head-to-Head Record
Austria and Turkey have faced each other in 17 meetings in the past. The Austrians hold the upper hand with nine wins in comparison to Turkey’s seven victories. A solitary match ended in a draw. However, this is their first meeting at a major tournament but Austria have won two of the last three meetings against Turkey, including a 6-1 thumping in March this year.
Incidentally, Turkey are unbeaten in their last five meetings in competitive matches (W4, D1). They have also kept a clean sheet in all these five matches. This will be their first match since a 0-0 draw in a Euro 2012 qualifier in September 2011.
Austria
Austria are the dark horse of the tournament, especially with their performance in the group stage. They are on the favourable side of the draw and people expect them to push forward and atleast reach the semifinals. Ralf Rangnick’s men have maintained their structure brilliantly while also implementing their aggressive pressing. They were in a pretty tough group with top teams and they caused trouble to each one of them. Therefore, people expect them to beat Turkey and enter the last eight of the UEFA Euro 2024.
Turkey
Vincenzo Montella’s men have been very erratic throughout their group stage matches despite winning two out of three games in the tournament. Turkey have been at their best defensively and it is a place where they need to work on. However, in attack and midfield, they have some exceptional players who can make a difference on their own. It will be a fascinating clash and Turkey will look to take their chances.
