Canada: form and statistics

The Canadian national team was left without medals at the 2024 World Cup, and then clearly decided to regain the title at the 2025 World Cup. For this purpose, the national team management has assembled a very high-profile squad, which even includes players who won the Four Nations Tournament in February - Travis Sanheim, Sidney Crosby and Nathan MacKinnon, and Jordan Binnington made his debut the day before.

Even before the start of the 2025 World Cup, it was clear that the Canadians were going to the tournament not to have fun, but to fight for the trophy. They defeated the Austrians and Hungarians in friendlies - 5:1 and 6:0, respectively. At the group stage of the tournament they have already beaten Slovenians - 4:0, Latvians - 7:1, and the day before the French - 5:0. All this allows them to lead in the Group A standings.

Austria: form and statistics

The Austrian national team was one step away from creating a huge sensation at the 2024 World Cup, having made it to the quarterfinals. Then they managed to beat the Finns and Norwegians - 3:2 and 4:1, respectively, stole one point from the Canadians, losing in overtime - 6:7, and then in the final game they had enough to defeat the British, who had already fallen out of the elite, but it didn't happen - 2:4.

At the 2025 FIFA World Cup, the Eagles intend to fight for a playoff spot. In the debut of the group stage, they have a very difficult calendar. They have already lost to Finland and Sweden - 1:2 and 2:4, respectively, but even in these games they had a chance to score points. The day before, the Austrians beat the Slovaks on a shootout - 3:2. So far this is enough for sixth place in Group A, but at the finish line they will face lesser opponents.

Canada vs Austria: head to head statistics

Canada vs Austria match prediction 15 May 2025

The Canadian national team continues to show consistently good results. In their current form, the Maple Leafs have already played five matches, in which they won five victories with a total score of 27:2. Ahead of them awaits a confrontation with the Austrian national team, which at the 2025 World Cup does not look like a whipping boy, but the next day the Eagles will expect a confrontation with the French, which is much more important for them from a tournament point of view. They are unlikely to tear their hearts out to give the North Americans a worthy resistance, so a bet on a win for Canada with a handicap (-4.5) is a good bet.

Canada plays surprisingly strong defense at the 2025 World Cup. We are used to the Maple Leafs having more fun than playing hockey at the group stage of world championships, but under Dean Evason's leadership, things are different. So far, the only puck missed by they at the tournament was by 40-year-old debutant Marc-Andre Fleury, and this localized mishap didn't stop the veteran from deflecting all other shots. Based on this, the best option for the prediction is the individual total of the Austrian national team under (1) puck, and separately you can bet on a total under 6.5 pucks.

Our main prediction: is Handicap 1 (-4.5) for a coefficient of 2.10 in the betway bookmaker.

Our betting tip on the match: is Total Under 6.5 for a coefficient 1.74 in the 1xbet bookmaker.

Our final betting tip on the match: is Total Under 6.5 for a coefficient of 1.83 in the bet365 bookmaker.
