Will Germany Secure the Bronze Medal on Home Soil?

After reaching the Nations League Finals on home soil, Germany were many people’s favourites to lift the trophy in Munich. However, Julian Nagelsmann’s men came up short against Portugal in the semi-finals.

The Germans were seemingly on their way when the excellent Florian Wirtz gave them a 48^th-minute at the Allianz Arena. However, Francisco Conceicao equalised before the evergreen Cristiano Ronaldo struck the winner in the 68^th minute.

France were involved in a nine-goal thriller with Spain in their semi-final. The French found themselves 4-0 down to a rampant Spanish side, but Didier Deschamps’ men showed plenty of fighting spirit in the eventual 5-4 defeat.

Spain were 5-1 up when Rayan Cherki scored a stunner on his French debut. An own goal and 93^rd-minute Kolo Muani made the last few moments interesting, but the Spaniards went on to book their spot in the Nations League final. Can Les Bleus dust themselves down and secure the bronze medal on German turf?

Germany vs France Betting Tips & Predictions

The midweek loss to Portugal ended Germany’s impressive eight-game unbeaten streak, and Nagelsmann and his players will want to bounce back at the first time of asking. There is not much to split the two European powerhouses, but home advantage could be key. We fancy the Germans to edge it (2.52).

France have scored a hatful of goals recently, netting nine in their last four. Deschamps’ boys usually find the net, so take a punt on the Germany victory and both teams to score at 3.75.
