Germany hosts Czech Republic in a friendly international match. The match will be played on Wednesday, November 11th at Red Bull Arena (Leipzig)
Die Mannschaft does not look as strong as it did at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil. At the next World Cup in Russia, Germany failed completely. Joachim Low understands very well that the next Euro will be his last chance to take the trophy again. He decided to gradually abandon most of the veterans who brought the gold. Yes, Neuer, Kroos, Ginter, Gundogan, and Rudiger remained. However, the coach is actively giving chances to many players, and Kimmich, Brandt, Goretzka, Werner, and Gnabry can be considered veterans in the current squad. Now there are a couple of new names on the list. At the same time, the results are not impressive in 2020. Spending five matches in the fall, the Germans beat only Ukraine, weakened by the virus and injuries.

The Czechs showed their strength in European qualification, having managed to gain 2nd place and a ticket to the final stage of the tournament. This fall, the men of Jaroslav Silhavy started well (with an away victory over the Slovaks). But then a coronavirus was discovered in the camp of the national team, and they even wanted to postpone the meeting with Scotland. Having received the threat of a forfeit defeat from UEFA, the Czechs urgently assembled a new squad on the principle “every little bit helps.” The coaching staff invited veterans like Gubnik and local players. And this “ersatz-team” was able to compete with the Scots but lost with a 1-2 score. When there was a defeat in Glasgow in October, it became obvious that Lokomotiva had no chances to win the group. But six points scored (the Czechs beat Israel a month ago) allowed them not to worry about possible relegation from Division B. Therefore, they can consider a friendly match with the Germans as a priority in November.
The Germans score and concede in every match of this year. Why should something change now? Given the friendly nature of the match, the teams are likely to play interesting offensive football, and we will probably see an exchange of goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score - yes
