Germany hosts Romania in round 7 of the World Cup qualification. The match will be played on Friday, October 8th at Volksparkstadion (Hamburg)
The German national team leads the Group J standings (15 points after six matches). The Germans gained five victories and suffered one defeat. The team, which began the qualification with Joachim Low, said goodbye to the 61-year-old specialist after an unsuccessful performance at Euro 2020. He was replaced by the ex-manager of Bayern Munich, Hans-Dieter Flick. The reshuffle in the coaching staff benefited Die Mannschaft. In three September qualifying games, the Germans gained three victories with a total score of 12-0. Flick's men coped with Liechtenstein (2-0), hammered Armenia on their pitch (6-0), and destroyed Iceland away (0-4).

The national team of Romania is in 3rd place in the qualifying group (ten points after six rounds). The Tricolors chalked up three victories, one draw, and two defeats. The Romanian national team, which scored only three points in three games at the start of the qualification in March, set off in pursuit of the leaders in September. A relatively simple calendar helped the Romanians: they dealt with Iceland (0-2) and Liechtenstein (2-0) and tied against North Macedonia (0-0). At the same time, the Tricolors kept a clean sheet three times in a row.
The Germans are close to formalizing their victory in the qualifying group in a couple of rounds. Flick's players will not postpone this event until the last match. The Romanians are unlikely to earn points in the confrontation against the German national team, which is on the rise after Flick's invitation. At the same time, one should not expect a super-productive game from the Germans. Three days after the match in Hamburg, Germany will face the unyielding Macedonians, so it will try to score three points with the least expenditure of effort. In addition, in the 1st game against Germany, the Romanians demonstrated their ability to play defense first, so they will not concede many goals.
Prediction for the match: Germany to win and Under 3.5 goals scored
