Germany vs Hungary Prediction: Expert Analysis and Match Preview
Hosts Germany will try to repeat their 5-1 victory against Scotland during the 2nd round when they take the field against Hungary at Stuttgart this Wednesday in EURO 2024.
Germany have won in four of their five games thus far across all competitions, and have drawn one. The team had five points against Scotland and began with 10 players.
Jamal Musiala caused a stir on the first day of play when he scored the team’s second goal in the 5-1 win against Scotland.
Hungary’s Struggles
Hungary made a bad impression after their defeat of 3-1 to Switzerland on match day one. A possible loss to the host nation could put them at the edge of a cliff after only two games.
Hungary are down two times in their last three matches across all tournaments. They were down 2 goals to the break of their first match against Switzerland.
Marco Rossi’s side started the game more after the break however it wasn’t enough for a consolation strike by the striker Barnabas Varga.
Line-ups and Team News
Germany
Julian Nagelsmann has no reason to alter his tactics following the crushing defeat against Scotland. We anticipate to use the same starting lineup to be in place for Germany next Wednesday.
Germany (4-5-1): Neuer – Kimmich, Rudiger, Tah, Mittelstadt – Andrich, Kroos, Musiala, Gundogan, Wirtz – Havertz.
Hungary
It’s not the case about Marco Rossi. The most likely substitution is the one he made during half-time during the match against Switzerland. Servette is a defender. Bendeguz Bolla could take his place as a right-back in front from Adam Lang.
Hungary (5-4-1): Gulacsi – Fiola, Lang, Orban, Szalai, Kerkez – Nagy, Schafer, Sallai, Szoboszlai – Varga.
Germany Flying High
Germany demonstrated their leadership by winning their first game against Scotland. The energy inside the changing room is incredible.
Everything is pointing to another comfortable victory over Hungary whose defence was weak in the opening game in the competition.
The team has now scored four wins and a draw from the last five matches across all tournaments. They’ve scored at least two goals in all of the four wins.
Hungary’s Uphill Battle
Hungary will enter the match in a completely different mindset after their defeat of 3-1 to Switzerland. They now face an opponent that is much more formidable, and it’s difficult to predict a better outcome.
They are facing a much stronger opponent. Magyarok have also suffered defeat in two of their last three matches across all competitions, and suffered an 2-1 loss against their arch-rivals the Republic of Ireland in a test match earlier in the month.
Germany vs Hungary Predictions and Betting Odds
You can bet on Germany to prevail at least two goals with odds that are 1.72. Jamal Musiala and Florian Wirtz were outstanding on the opening day of the game against Scotland.
They scored the opening two goals in the game and also created a number of opportunities later on.
The duo will also have plenty of room during the last third of the game to beat the sloppy Hungarian defense. Its odds are 2.75 to score a goal by Musiala this Wednesday look incredible.
