On Saturday, starting with 19:45, the Germany – Ukraine match will be played, within the 5th round of the League of Nations. Germany is undefeated in all 7 direct matches, recording 4 wins and 3 draws. In the round, the Germans won 2-1 in Kiev, through the goals scored by Ginter and Goretzka, respectively Malinovsky (penalty).
The last match played by Germany was on Thursday night, a 1-0 victory against the Czech Republic, also played in Leipzig. Waldschmidt scored in the 13th minute, the only goal of this match. It was the first home match for Joachim Low’s team in which he does not receive a goal, after 4 disputes in which he scored 8 goals. In group 4 of the League of Nations, Germany obtained 6 points in the first 4 stages and is ranked second, one point away from the leader Spain.
Ukraine comes after a defeat recorded on Thursday night, 0-2 on the field of Poland, in a friendly duel. Andriy Shevchenko’s team ticked 6 points in the first 4 stages of the League of Nations, just like Germany, but with a lower goal average. If the last official match was a victory with Spain, score 1-0 at home, away Ukraine has big problems. In the previous 4 away matches, the Ukrainians received 15 goals and scored only 3 times.
In the match with the Czech Republic, Germany used a team with many reserves, and the regular starters will return in the top 11 with Ukraine. Despite the defensive problems, the Germans are the favorites to get a conclusive victory, and our bets are heading in this direction.
