Even with four third-placed teams qualifying for the last-16, either side failing to win here will leave them on the brink of a group-stage exit.
Poland performed admirably against the Dutch but failed to truly threaten having taken an early lead through Adam Buksa. The return of Robert Lewandowski will be key to their hopes of a better display.
Austria also had their moments against France before falling to a narrow defeat.
Date, kick-off time and venue
Poland vs Austria is scheduled for a 5pm BST kick-off today, Friday June 21, 2024.
The match will take place at the Olympiastadion in Berlin.
