Austria vs Bosnia-Herzegovina prediction
The final match day in Group H of European qualifying, the Austrians sit at the top of the group with six victories and a defeat in their seven matches, whilst Bosnia-Herzegovina head to the capital city of Austria sitting two points behind and with a chance to leapfrog their opponents if they produced a surprise victory.
Ralf Rangnick has overseen a major improvement in Austrian football as they come into this one on the back of a comfortable 2-0 defeat of Cyprus in Nicosia the other day. The Bosnians managed to keep up their charge with their own surprise come from behind 3-1 victory over Romania in Bilino Polje.
Bosnia will believe they can create problems against an intense and often Austria side, but the Austrians remain firm favourites to make it to North America next summer.
