Austria and Belgium UEFA Euros Tournament Record
The calibre of their squads certainly differ, but neither Austria nor Belgium have won a European Championship trophy in their history.
The Austrian national team have never been among the contenders at the European Championships. They hosted the tournament at Euro 2008, crashing out of the competition on their debut in the group stage. They’ve made great strides in recent years, qualifying for Euro 2016, Euro 2020, and Euro 2024.
Euro 2020 marked Austria’s best performance in the competition, progressing beyond the group stage for the first time. They won two games before suffering a heartbreaking extra-time defeat to eventual champions Italy in the Round of 16.
The Belgium national team achieved their best performance to date at Euro 1980, losing to West Germany in a closely contested final. A disappointing era followed during which time Belgium rarely participated at the European Championships.
An incredible generation of footballers emerged in the 21st century and, despite the size of their country, Belgium became a giant in the international game. However, they were eliminated at the quarter-final stage at both Euro 2016 and Euro 2020.
Austria vs Belgium Head to Head
Austria and Belgium have never previously met at a major international tournament. Austria won all nine of their first meetings with Belgium, but have since failed to secure victory over the Red Devils in their last seven encounters.
They faced off in qualifying for Euro 2024. In Belgium, Austria secured a 1-1 draw. Four months later, the Red Devils beat Austria 3-2 in Vienna to seal their place at Euro 2024.
