'You want to test yourselves'published at 19:05 British Summer Time 12 October 2018
Austria v Northern Ireland (19:45 BST)
The Northern Ireland team are undergoing something of a revolution under manager Michael O'Neill.
They are attempting to play more attacking football, which involves high intensity and high pressing.
Midfielder Oliver Norwood says it began during last year's World Cup play-off defeat by Switzerland when the team had to seize the initiative during the second leg in Basel.
"It's the way football is going now, the modern game has moved on so much," he said.
"For me personally, it's similar to how we play at Sheffield United, on the front foot, starting games fast, trying to take the initiative, trying to force the other team on the back foot.
"We're not saying we're going to go and do that against Germany and teams like that, the top teams, but in the Nations League, playing against teams of similar level, you want to test yourselves and we want to replicate those performances."
