Argentina vs. Austria preview: Team news and how to watch World Cup match
FIFA+: World Cup archive & programmes FREE on DAZN
A pair of teams coming off tournament-opening victories will clash on Monday as Argentina face Austria with top spot in Group J on the line.
The Argentines were 3-0 winners against Algeria to start their World Cup last week, with Lionel Messi scoring all three goals as he turned back the clock for his first hat-trick in the competition. The South American side are the reigning World Cup champions of course, and the three points set their quest to go back-to-back nicely on course.

Meanwhile, Austria rung up a 3-1 victory over World Cup newcomers Jordan, with the European side earning the result despite attempting fewer shots than their opponents. A win's a win, but it was far from a comfortable performance for Ralf Rangnick's side, who must now navigate 90 minutes against the group favourites.

Argentina vs. Austria team news
@Argentina
Argentina
While it wasn't a perfect performance against the Algerians, the 3-0 scoreline makes it hard for Lionel Scaloni to consider many changes to his starting XI. Perhaps Julian Alvarez gets the nod over Lautaro Martinez, but there are no other obvious areas that need a shake-up.
Previous XI: E. Martinez; Montiel, Romero, Li. Martinez, Medina; De Paul, Mac Allister, Fernandez; Messi, La. Martinez, Almada
Austria
Marcel Sabitzer earned a yellow card in Austria's opener and could see his time on the pitch reduced in order to avoid a second caution and subsequent suspension. However, it's extremely likely that he will remain in the starting XI given his stature within the team.
Previous XI: A. Schlager; Posch, Lienhart, Alaba, Mwene; Laimer, Seiwald; Schmid, X. Schlager, Sabitzer; Kalajdžić
