Germany vs Netherlands Prediction & Betting tips
One of the classics of European football will take place on Friday in Hamburg’s Volksparkstadion for the fourth time in less than a year. Other encounters might wear out under these conditions, but not the match between the neighbors and old rivals from Germany and Holland.
Not a few duels between these two teams, had kinship with a battle in the square, on the stands and around the stadium. The rivalry was initially founded in World War II and was then transferred to football in the World Cup final in 1974, when the highly favored Dutchmen had beaten the Germans 1: 2.
Other episodes followed at the European Championships in 1988, at the 1990 World Cup and the European Championship in 1992. Meanwhile, the waves between the two camps have smoothed significantly. The rivalry has become less and the interaction with each other is almost relaxed. On Friday, however, much is at stake, because it is also between the DFB team and the team in Oranje for the European Championship tickets.
Germany is in second place with nine points. Northern Ireland is in front with twelve points, but has a game more and against the favored Germans and Dutchmen not yet played. The Netherlands has only two games and three points in the account. Overall, should Germany and Holland, so at least the forecast, at the end of the qualification both have their EM tickets in the bag.
Belarus and Estonia complete this group, but should be only filler in total. In principle, DFB and KNVB have always been at eye level if we exclude brief periods of weakness between the two associations. Therefore, the game on Friday should be very exciting again. If we take the last encounters as a basis, then even a football festival could be back in the house.
To give a tip before the match between Germany and Holland is no easy task. The Dutch are unpredictable and able to beat any team in the world, anywhere in the world. In addition, the positive memories of the Volkspark, even if it was another stadium in 1988, are ubiquitous for the Elftal. The kick-off for the European Championship qualifier between Germany and Holland in the Hamburg Volksparkstadion will take place on 06.09.2019 at 19:45.
Germany :
After his accident on the weight bench and the injury, which was obviously heavier than initially assumed, Jogi Löw gives his comeback on Friday on the coaching bench. In the case of the mandatory victories over Belarus and Estonia, the national coach was well represented, so that the German team has everything in their own hands to make the group victory in the European Championship qualifying perfect.
With a threesome and a victory on Monday in Northern Ireland, the four-time world champion would almost be through. First, however, the bear must be killed before the coat is distributed. That Germany could fail, but should be very unlikely. Quite a few fans expect a home victory on Friday and would therefore use the odds on a German success between Germany and Holland.
After all, Germany has not lost for six games and recently retracted three wins. Especially in the European Championship qualification, the record with nine points from the three games is immaculate. After the World Cup debacle and the matches in the Nations League, the victory in Holland came as a surprise.
Most recently there was a sovereign 2-0 victory in Belarus and then the shooter’s home at home against Estonia. With 8: 0 the Balts were swept out of the stadium. Marco Reus opened the scoring and was twice successful. This was joined by Serge Gnabry (2), Leon Goretzka, Ilkay Gundogan, Timo Werner and Leroy Sane.
Marco Reus was in the run-up to the game against the Niederlade a popular man. He made it clear several times that playing Germany against Holland is something very special.
The anticipation of the attacker of Borussia Dortmund was noted, which makes it clear once again how cool he finds it, to be allowed to stand on the lawn in this game.
Other actors would like to say that. First and foremost, Leroy Sane will miss his cruciate ligament tear. For this, Jogi Löw has not nominated the two Parisians Julian Draxler and Thilo Kehrer for the time being. Also Antonio Rüdiger will be missing in the next two internationals. But the coach has asked Luca Waldschmidt a freshman for the first time national team.
Netherlands:
The direct qualification for the European Championship, the Dutch have missed over the Nations League, first of all. Due to a defeat by Portugal, the title passed the Elftal at the first event of this new format. However, the Nations League does not have the radiance that could be compared to a European Championship.
As a result, the focus of the Netherlands is clearly on being at least second in the qualifying group. After the defeat in the first leg against Germany, Oranje is now required. A further failure against the old rival would probably mean that the first place can no longer be achieved.
Sure, the Dutch have a very young team, which can cause a furore in the next few years. However, Ronald Koeman can not be satisfied with only two wins from the last five internationals. Portugal, England, despite defeat and Germany, the Elftal have shown the limits. Nevertheless, this team is trustworthy.
Before the kick-off between Germany and Holland is a forecast for an away win by no means absurd. The last meeting of the Dutch was the mentioned final in the Nations League. The Dutch had more possession, but Portugal was again callous. So the Elftal had to be beaten 0: 1 at the end.
The last results are perhaps the reason why Holland’s sports director Nico-Jan Hoogma bakes first of all smaller rolls.
He certainly sees the Dutch on equal terms with Germany, but the former HSV star also knows that it will be very difficult and that the Elftal can not be blinded by the good results in the Nations League against the neighbors.
We could have imagined that Wout Weghorst would be nominated for this international match. The Wolfsburg is just as little of the party, as Daryl Janmaat, Justin Kluivert or Donny van de Beek. The only injured player not available against Germany is Kenny Tete from Olympique Lyon.
