GROUP J INFO

About Group J

Austria are seeded third in Group J — one of the tournament’s most daunting draws. They face Argentina (defending world champions, led by Lionel Messi), Algeria (Africa’s danger side), and Jordan (World Cup debutants). Austria’s standout fixture is their Matchday 2 clash with Argentina at AT&T Stadium in Dallas — a historic occasion as the two nations have never met competitively. Led by Marcel Sabitzer and Bayer Leverkusen’s Florian Wirtz-era generation, Austria are returning to the World Cup for the first time since France 1998. To advance, they will almost certainly need a result against Argentina or Algeria. The group spans three very different venues: Silicon Valley (Levi’s Stadium), Dallas (AT&T Stadium), and Kansas City (Arrowhead Stadium).
