Germans to Continue Fine Run Against Norn Iron?

Germany are in poor form, losing each of their last three. They kicked off this qualifying campaign with a loss in Slovakia on Thursday night. The Germans have not won a game since a 2-1 victory over Italy in the UEFA Nations League in March.

Despite the loss in Bratislava, Germany are still the red-hot favourites to win Group A. Julian Nagelsmann’s men are available at 1.32 to qualify, while the Slovakians are priced at 4.50.

Northern Ireland started their qualifying campaign with a hard-fought victory in Luxembourg. The matchup at the Stade de Luxembourg was level at the break, but second-half goals from Shea Charles and Justin Devenny were enough for a 3-1 win.

Norn Iron are in decent form, losing just two of their past nine fixtures. Before the win in Luxembourg City, Michael O’Neill’s boys picked up an impressive 1-0 home victory over Iceland in a friendly in June.

Germany vs Northern Ireland Betting Odds

Germany are eager to bounce back after Thursday’s surprise loss. As expected, the hosts are the strong favourites to win this one, with the bookies offering just 1.12 for a home triumph.

Northern Ireland would love to build on their win at the Stade de Luxembourg, but this will be a far greater test for the Green and White Army. The away win is priced at 19.00, and you can get 9.20 for the draw.

Germany Win – 1.12

Draw – 9.20

Northern Ireland Win – 19.00

Recent Germany vs Northern Ireland Head-to-Head Meetings

Germany hammered Northern Ireland when the nations last locked horns in 2019. Serge Gnabry was on fire in the UEFA Euro 2020 qualifier in Frankfurt, helping himself to a hat-trick. Germany won the reverse meeting in Belfast by two goals to nil.

The Germans have an excellent recent record in this fixture, winning each of the past nine meetings. Norn Iron’s last victory came way back in 1983.

Germany vs Northern Ireland Betting Tips & Predictions

Germany are tough to topple on home soil, and Nagelsmann’s boys should bounce back with a comfortable victory in Cologne. We like the look of 1.63 for the Germans to win -2.

When the countries last clashed, Germany were leading 2-1 at the break and went on to add four goals without reply in the second period. Take a punt on the hosts to win both halves at 1.90.
