Germany vs Slovakia Preview and Team News
Germany Team News
Despite leading their group with four wins from five matches, Germany’s performance can hardly be called a success. And it’s not even the defeat to Slovakia that’s to blame. While Germany defeated Northern Ireland (0-1) and Luxembourg (0-2), at times, they ceded the initiative to their opponents.
Julian Nagelsmann openly criticised his players for a lack of commitment and overly cautious play. But there are also questions about the coach regarding the squad selection.
A draw will be enough for Germany to secure first place. However, for Die Mannschaft, only a victory will be a positive result in this clash.
Germany predicted lineup vs Slovakia (4-2-3-1): Baumann; Baku, Anton, Tah, Raum; Pavlovic, Nmecha; Adeyemi, Wirtz, Schade; Woltemade
Slovakia Team News
Francesco Calzona’s men became the main contenders for top spot in the group after a stunning victory against the clear favourites. But the mission proved extremely difficult to achieve.
In the succeeding rounds, the Slovaks snatched a 1-0 victory away to Luxembourg in the final minutes and suffered a disappointing 0-2 defeat to Northern Ireland. This Friday, they narrowly managed to gain revenge (1-0), guaranteeing at least a place in the playoffs.
However, due to a weak display from their starting lineup, they were unable to secure a favourable goal difference. Therefore, to regain the first place, they need to beat Germany again.
Slovakia predicted lineup vs Germany (3-4-3): Dubravka; Skriniar, Gyomber, Obert; Bero, Lobotka, Duda, Hancko; Duris, Strelec, Haraslin.

Germany vs Slovakia Prediction, Odds
- Pick: Slovakia (+1.5) Handicap
- Odds: +117 (Tonybet)
- Correct score prediction: Germany 2-1 Slovakia
The hosts remain the favourites despite their defeat in their last head-to-head match. However, given their current performance, it seems less likely that they will secure a convincing victory.
Germany even struggled against Luxembourg (0-2). The team is seriously affected by the absence of Jamal Musiala and now Joshua Kimmich, who was included in the squad but is dealing with health issues.
Slovakia are not in their best form either, but it will be comfortable playing as underdogs. In competitive away matches, Francesco Calzona’s men have lost by two or more goals in only one of 13, so we think the visitors will put up serious resistance.
Germany vs Slovakia Betting Tip
- Pick: Both Teams to Score
- Odds: +110 (Tonybet)
The guests failed to score in only one of their five qualifying matches – away against Northern Ireland. As we discovered in the first-half match, they’re much better at launching quick counterattacks.
While Slovakia are more likely to sit back in the defence, they are dangerous with set pieces. The hosts are not ideal when it comes to defending in aerial duels, so the Falcons will try to use that advantage.
Germany, on the other hand, were extremely fortunate to keep two clean sheets in a row, something even Julian Nagelsmann himself noted. Hence we anticipate an exchange of goals in this game.
