Germany take on the visitors Netherlands in a Friendly International match. The match will be played on Tuesday, March 26th at Deutsche Bank Park (Frankfurt).
Germany cannot help but cause concern. Die Mannschaft has shown maximum results in its history. The team has won the European Championship and the World Cup three times each. However, after the triumph at the World Cup a decade ago in Brazil in 2014, the results have been extremely modest. Being knocked out after the group stage in both 2018 and 2022 is significant. After the failure in Qatar, Flick remained in his position, but he was dismissed under the weight of constant failures in friendly matches — incidentally, Hansi was the first among all German national team coaches to experience this. But even under Nagelsmann, in November, they lost to both Turkey in Berlin and Austria in Vienna. Now, in March, the team performed much better against France in Lyon: the guests unexpectedly secured a comfortable, grandmaster 2-0 victory.

The Netherlands performed decently at the World Cup. They progressed through the group stage and reached the quarterfinals, where Veghorst's brace against Argentina pulled them back from 0-2. However, the outcome was decided once again in a penalty shootout, showcasing Emiliano Martinez's skill. After that, Van Gaal stepped down once again. His successor was Koeman, who led the Dutch to the Euros. However, this time, not everything went smoothly. His team lost to the French in both matches, with significant defeats away from home. The home finals cycle of the Nations League also brought a couple of setbacks. Nevertheless, they managed to qualify for the Euros without much trouble. They started with Scotland in Amsterdam and convincingly defeated the future participant of the championship with a score of 4-0.
The history of their encounters spans half a century — starting with a determined victory for the Germans in the final of the 1974 World Cup. In the qualifiers for the previous Euros, as part of yet another chapter of their rivalry, there was an exchange of victories. Then there was only a friendly game, which ended 1-1.. Die Mannschaft is considered a clear favorite at home, but let's not forget about all the problems from last year. Moreover, the Dutch are an extremely challenging opponent for anyone. So, let's bet on over 2.5 goals total.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
