Austria vs Jordan Stats, Match Statistics, xG & Player Data

(Santa Clara)

The Austria vs Jordan stats hub tracks Group J Match 20 at San Francisco Bay Area Stadium, where the Austria national football team meet the Jordan national football team. Austria bring the higher FIFA ranking, stronger xG profile, cleaner defensive record, and a pressing structure that suits tournament football. Jordan arrive for their World Cup debut with Musa Al-Taamari as the main attacking outlet and enough shot volume to make the numbers worth tracking.
The match kicks off at 00:00 ET on 17 June 2026, which is 21:00 local time on 16 June in Santa Clara. It sits inside the World Cup 2026 Group J fixtures race with Argentina and Algeria. The game will be staged at Levi’s Stadium, while the broader World Cup 2026 stats records tracker will connect this matchup to tournament-wide xG, shots, possession, and player data once official feeds open.
Austria vs Jordan Stats – Match Statistics Overview
Austria hold the stronger pre-match statistical profile. Their public team averages show 1.54 xG, 2.7 goals, 11.8 shots, and 63% possession. Jordan are close in raw shot volume, but their possession, defensive, and xG-against numbers leave more pressure on their transitions.
The matchup creates a clear style split. Austria want to press high, win the ball quickly, and attack before Jordan settle. Jordan need cleaner first passes from midfield because Austria’s counterpress can turn loose touches into shots near goal.

The available set covers xG, goals, shots, possession, fouls, clean sheets, goals conceded, and shots on target. Cards, corners, pass totals, saves, and detailed player event data remain yet to be confirmed.

| Total Shots Avg | 11.8 | 11 |

Attacking Stats Comparison
Austria’s attacking edge comes from efficiency. Their 2.7 goals from 11.8 shots and 1.54 xG show a side that converts chances at a strong rate. Marcel Sabitzer and Konrad Laimer help Austria attack quickly after turnovers, while David Alaba gives them an extra passing route from deeper zones.
Jordan’s attacking numbers are respectable for a debutant. Their 11 shots and 1.34 xG per match suggest they can create enough to trouble Austria if Al-Taamari receives early service. The concern is shot quality under pressure because Austria allow only 0.93 xG against per match.
| Stat | Austria | Jordan |
|---|---|---|
| Goals per Match | 2.7 | 1.7 |
| xG per Game | 1.54 | 1.34 |

Defensive Stats Comparison
Austria’s defensive record is the clearest gap in the data. They concede 0.4 goals and 0.93 xG per match, with a 60% clean-sheet rate. That profile fits Rangnick’s pressing system because Austria defend by reducing time before the opponent can build.
Jordan concede 1.5 goals and 1.38 xG per match in the current public sample. Their clean-sheet rate sits at 30%, so the first 30 minutes will matter. If Jordan absorb pressure without conceding, their counters become more valuable as Austria push numbers forward.
| Stat | Austria | Jordan |
|---|---|---|
| Clean Sheets | 60% | 30% |
| Goals Conceded Avg | 0.4 | 1.5 |
| xG Against | 0.93 | 1.38 |
| Fouls Avg | 14.4 | 11.44 |
| Team Offsides Avg | 1.9 | 1.5 |

Passing and Possession Analysis
Austria’s 63% possession average gives them the stronger control marker. They can keep Jordan pinned back by forcing play into crowded wide areas, then use short recoveries to restart attacks. Jordan’s 35% possession average means they may spend long spells defending without the ball.
Full passing data is not available from the official match feed yet. Pass totals, pass accuracy, key passes, long balls, and crossing accuracy stay yet to be confirmed. The strongest current read comes from possession, xG, shots, and goals conceded.

Key Player Statistics
Player event data will update once FIFA opens the official match feed. Austria’s card lists David Alaba, Konrad Laimer, and Marcel Sabitzer because current squad coverage and team previews identify them as central figures. Jordan’s card lists Musa Al-Taamari, Noor Al-Rawabdeh, and Yazid Abulaila because they shape the main attacking, midfield, and goalkeeping responsibilities.
Austria – Konrad Laimer
Konrad Laimer gives Austria the pressing engine that makes their system work. He can cover midfield and full-back zones, which helps Austria keep pressure after losing the ball. Against Jordan, his recoveries could decide how often Austria turn possession into short-field attacks.
Jordan – Musa Al-Taamari
Musa Al-Taamari is Jordan’s clearest attacking reference. His pace and left-footed threat give Jordan a direct route when they escape pressure. Austria must stop early switches toward him because Jordan’s possession share is too low to waste transition chances.
Expected Goals Analysis
The xG comparison gives Austria a 1.54 to 1.34 edge. That gap is modest, but Austria pair it with far better xG-against and goals-conceded numbers. The combined profile points toward Austria creating the cleaner chances across longer stretches.
Jordan’s path depends on efficiency and timing. Their 15% shot conversion is solid, yet Austria’s 23% conversion shows sharper finishing in the current public data. If Jordan concede first, the xG gap could widen because they may need to chase the match.
