Germany vs Ukraine Predictions and Betting Tips

---

---

The stage for this one is the Red Bull Arena in Leipzig as Germany and Ukraine go at each other. Both sides still have a shot at first place and as such, will be heading into this game with the three points in mind. Will the home side manage to grab this win?

Die Mannschaft have won three of all five encounters between both sides. It is also to be noted that The Yellow and Blues have never recorded a victory against their opponents with the remaining two games ending in draws. As such, it is quite clear who the favourites are for this game. Their most recent encounter ended in a 2-1 win for the Germans. It is then left to see whether they can make it two consecutive wins against Shevckenko's troops.

Must-win game for Low and Co.

Those draws at the beginning of the 2020/21 UEFA Nations League campaign have come to haunt the Germans as they find themselves in desperate times. They currently sit at second on the table, level on points with their opponents who are in third. The Spaniards lead the way with just one point but still have a date with Die Mannschaft on the final day. This makes this game quite important as they can only manage to keep up with the league leaders with a win.

Low and Co. only have themselves to blame for their current dilemma. They had a chance to go top of the table but botched it with a three-all draw against Switzerland to close out the last international break. As such, Low and Co. will certainly be working towards grabbing deserved three points as head into this game.

Still a chance for The Yellow and Blues

Ukraine, in third place, with just a point off the summit mathematically still have a chance at first place. However, they would need to win against a side who they haven't beaten in the last five matches. Shevchenko and his boys are faced with an uphill task but they're certainly capable of taking into account their result against the league leaders.

The Yellow and Blues recorded their second win against the league leaders in the final game of the last international break. A late goal from Viktor Tsygankov put them back in the race for the Nations League playoffs as they ran out 1-0 winners. However, they fell short to Poland on Wednesday in an international friendly. How well will they manage against an even-stronger Germany outfit?

Germany vs Ukraine Prediction: 2-0

The Ukrainians were not convincing in their most recent game against Poland. The Germans, on the other hand, played relatively well against the Czech Republic without quite a number of first-team players and managed to get the win.

We expect this game to be fast-paced and of a high tempo as both sides are expected to go for the win. However, we believe the home side's attacking talent should pull them through at the end of 90 minutes.
