Champions Argentina have too much quality for a solid Austria.
Argentina combine experience, control and cutting edge; Austria can disrupt with high pressing. In Dallas, a likely controlled roof environment should limit heat fatigue.
Austria's intense pressing will pose a tough test, but Argentina's technical mastery and vast championship experience should prevail.
Argentina is the clear favourite against Austria in Dallas.
Argentina's firepower, led by Messi, will be decisive despite Austria finding a goal.
