Austrians fearful of ‘machine’ Jon Walters

Austria have the talent to overcome Ireland and their “machine” Jon Walters on Saturday, according to Arnautovic.

While their star man David Alaba has struggled to shine in this World Cup campaign, Stoke City’s Arnautovic has come to the fore by scoring both goals in the 2-2 draw against Wales last month.

Having come so close to claiming the full points and plaudits in Vienna last month against the Dragons, the local hero has his sights set on unleashing that frustration on Ireland.
