Austria will be without midfielder Zlatko Junuzovic for both legs of their UEFA European Under-21 Championship play-off against Finland after the 20-year-old damaged ligaments in his left knee while in action for his club.

Four-week absence
Junuzovic incurred the injury during SK Austria Kärnten's 6-0 demolition of SV Kapfenberg on Saturday, and is not expected to be fit again for another three or four weeks, meaning he will miss the play-off games against Finland on 10 and 14 October as Austria look to book a place in next summer's U21 finals in Sweden. The Serbian-born player played with Austria at the FIFA U-20 World Cup finals in Canada last year, with his side claiming fourth place.
