Although Southgate fielded the main squad for the Nations League matches, this did not help the national team in any way. The players can be understood, as they are not interested in this tournament, since the Premier League is in full swing now, and the Champions League has also started. However, it is still hard to believe in scoring only 1 goal in 5 games, and even that one from the penalty spot.
The same can be said about the Germans, who also performed unsuccessfully at the Nations League. The players simply have no motivation to play, since the chance of getting injured here is quite high. But Germany still managed to score 8 goals in five games.
This match already means nothing in terms of the standings - England will be relegated from League A anyway, and Germany will take 2nd or 3rd place but still will not reach the playoffs. In this case, the head coaches are likely to field experimental squads, so we expect a more spectacular game today, as the substitutes will need to prove their place in the national teams before the start of the World Cup.
Our prediction: at least 3 goals to be scored. We recommend the “Over 2.5” bet, odds 2.17
