For a long time there was speculation about his fitness, now there is certainty: Marko Arnautovic can only support Austria's national team in the EURO opener against North Macedonia from the bank.

Arnautovic recently struggled with a thigh injury, but celebrated his comeback in the finish against Slovakia. “My legs are fine,” announced Arnautovic after the game, but also admitted that there was still a little bit of air for 90 minutes.
VfB Stuttgart striker Sasa Kalajdzic will act as the solo peak against North Macedonia. Behind it, Franco Foda relies on Christoph Baumgartner, David Alaba and Marcel Sabitzer.
The constellations:
Austria : Bachmann – Ulmer, Dragovic, Hinteregger, Lainer – Laimer, Schlager – Alaba, Baumgartner, Sabitzer – Kalajdzic;
North Macedonia : Dimitrievski – Ristovski, Velkovski, Musliu – Alioski, Ademi, Nikolov, Elmas, Bardhi – Trajkovski, Pandev
