Germany vs France Prediction & Betting tips
On Thursday, the 06.09.2018 at 19:45 clock receives the former world champion the reigning world champion in Munich. As part of the newly invented Nations League gives Jogi Löw and his squad the opportunity to iron out the disgust of a few months ago something. After the resignation demands of some fans Löw now gets the chance to prove that the decision against the resignation for himself, but above all for the German football was the right one. It will be clear that it will not turn against France. But this is also the opportunity. If Germany wins the so often required new start, the DFB would be able to send a strong signal.
Germany:
Well, why was it that the German national team had to take their hat off so early at the World Cup? The analysis of the national coach lasted two months. While many experts and media representatives considered this period excessive, the statements of the national coach were, however, surprisingly clear. Alleged expected phrases were avoided and it was Tacheles talked.
For this Germany – France tip remains probably the most interesting finding that an important part of the error analysis was found in the game system of the DFB-Elf. Above all, he was accused of being too offensive and therefore vulnerable to defensiveness. But Loew knew to argue against it. His philosophy of dominating the opponent meant for him to be able to act as often as possible in the last third, since the opponents are increasingly very defensive oriented.
The mistake in the Löw system was, and he admitted that, in order to create an overpower situation (or at least a same number), he ordered many defensive players to the front. The only way to change that would be to have multiple players able to create spaces in one-on-one and thus outnumbered situations – Low admitted that too. Since he supposedly did not have these, Loew had to find gaps in the endless ball game with almost all defensive players on offense.
That this inevitably leads to goals has become clear to him, though only now. In the future, more value should be placed on an orderly balance without abandoning the offensive style of the German national team. Loew emphasized that, too.
How Germany will be in the match against France is difficult to answer. Although the squad was a little thinned and brought a few fresh faces. But for the most part, most of the championship drivers stay together. The argument that this would not be a fresh start, we would like to refute with a simple question: What would be a fresh start? Should Loew actually oust Kroos, Muller, Neuer, Hummels, Boateng and Co. just to live up to the word “new beginning”? These footballers are the best we have at the moment. Löw has to lead her back into the right track and strength.
As for the betting odds on our Germany – France tip, it is fair to say that even the bookies are still unclear as to who actually has the advantage on his side. Will the home advantage, the sense of reparation or the individual quality of the French decide in the end?
France:
Didier Deschamps trusts his world champions, clearly showing that he takes the League of Nations seriously. Compared to the World Cup squad only replacement goalkeeper Steve Mandanda has been replaced. Deschamps assures, however, that this is the case for purely health reasons. At Mandanda’s place is the goalkeeper of Bordeaux, Benoît Costil available.
The analysis of France’s form is as difficult as that of Germany. Germany and France have not completed a test or competitive match since the World Cup and will therefore only be able to be measured on the basis of the last World Cup. It goes without saying that France should be in a very good shape as world champion with an almost identical squad.
The only problem could be the so-called pressure drop. This phenomenon is often observed when great goals have been achieved and the tasks to come are suddenly no longer of the highest priority. However, this is opposed by Deschamps’ squad nomination. In addition, this team consists mainly of young players who want to prove themselves further. Because of this, we can somewhat disprove the supposed drop in performance as a result of some arrogance.
We believe the Equpie Tricolore will take the game against Germany very seriously. Not only, but also because it is a classic prestige duel, in which every nation wants to hold up its flag in the end. The fact that the match Germany – France for betting is relatively balanced, can be seen in the betting odds. No team has a clearly lower odds than the other. Thus, we expect an exciting game.
