The 2022 FIFA World Cup playoff between Wales and Austria will be broadcast on TV and available via a live stream.

Wales and Austria will compete in UEFA's Path A of the World Cup playoffs, but both countries will be up against decades of their own history. Wales has made significant progress in the Euros, but the Dragons have not qualified for a World Cup since 1958. Meanwhile, Austria has gone 24 years without reaching the tournament's final stages.

The squads have been announced, and Gareth Bale is set to earn his 100th cap for Wales, who have been selected by interim manager Robert Paige. Fulham's on-fire creator Harry Wilson gets the start, with Daniel James rounding out the forward line. Ethan Ampadu replaces regular No. 1 in the back three, while Wayne Hennessey starts in goal. Danny Ward, number one, is injured. Joe Morrell has been suspended.

Austria's captain is Real Madrid's David Alaba, who will likely start at left back, with Marko Arnautovic leading the line up front. Marcel Sabitzer, a Bayern Munich winger, will assist the former West Ham forward. Aleksandar Dragovic starts in defense to earn his 99th cap for Serbia.

Wales is unbeaten since a 4-0 defeat to Denmark last summer, which ended their participation in Euro 2020. Wales, still led by caretaker manager Robert Paige, expects Gareth Bale to be fit, despite the Real Madrid forward missing the Clasico against Barcelona at the weekend. Aaron Ramsey is struggling for match sharpness on loan at Rangers, but Fulham schemer Wilson has lit up the Championship this season, scoring 10 goals and providing 13 assists.

Austria finished fourth in their group but advanced by winning their UEFA Nations League pot. Their main man is Real Madrid defender David Alaba, who often plays further forward as a box-to-box midfielder, while former West Ham striker Arnautovic is having a productive season in Serie A with Bologna. Aleksandar Dragovic, Austria's second-most capped player, is set to make his 99th appearance for his country. The final eliminator will feature either Scotland or Ukraine.
