Austria vs Jordan, FIFA World Cup 2026 All You Need To Know: It is Austria’s first return to the world stage in 28 years and they will open their Group J account against debutants Jordan at Levi’s Stadium. Under the tactical guidance of Ralf Rangnick, the Austrians go into the fixture as strong favourites. They had navigated a gruelling UEFA qualifying campaign with a Bundesliga-heavy core led by Marcel Sabitzer and Christoph Baumgartner, who relied on an aggressive, high-intensity counter pressing system. And Jordan will also be making its debut at the FIFA World Cup finals. “The Chivalrous Ones” caught the eye during AFC qualification by weaponising a lethal counter-attacking blueprint spearheaded by Montpellier winger Mousa Al-Tamari. Jordan’s pace on the break is a real danger, but Austria’s tactical discipline and top-level European experience should dictate the tempo. Rangnick’s side will be looking for an emphatic opening victory to stake their claim in a fiercely competitive group.
