vs

Beitar Jerusalem

Tips, Stats and Odds

Austria Wien's 2-1 win in the first leg set the tone for what will likely be a close, but ultimately winnable tie against Beitar Jerusalem in this UEFA Conference League Qualification 2026 encounter at Generali Arena on Thursday.

The hosts are the more in-form team, with 6 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats across their last 10 matches in all competitions, but the visitors have shown they can be stubborn on the road.

Stephan Helm's men have won two and drawn two of their five home games in all competitions, and they average 1.80 goals per home match after scoring 9 goals at Generali Arena. Beitar Jerusalem, meanwhile, have won three, drawn one and lost one of their 5 away games in all competitions, conceding just 0.80 goals per match on average away from home.

The odds available for this game, with Austria Wien 2.26 favourites, Beitar 3.17 and the draw at 3.53, seem to have it about right – and given the visitors' impressive road record, we're going to sidestep the moneyline and head to the goals market.

Austria Wien head into this game as the sharper side, having won four of their last five in all competitions, a run that includes a 3-1 home win over FK Liepaja and a 2-1 victory in the first leg against Beitar.

Both teams to score, available at 1.67, and over 2.5 goals, priced at 1.85, should find the mark on Thursday when two solid sides meet in Vienna.

Austria Wien's pressing and high-line possession play will test Beitar Jerusalem's solid shape if the Israelis sit deep, but an organized, counter-attacking approach should ensure that the goals flow at both ends.
