Prediction, Odds & Betting Tips for Switzerland vs. Germany at EURO 2024
Switzerland and Germany shall decide about the top spot in Group A. Ahead of this event, the tournament hosts have two points more than their neighbors, who are hoping to make a miracle and take over the wheel in this assembly, thus getting an “easier” rival in the first round of the knockout stage.
Switzerland
The Swiss unit targeted the form for this competition, and it seems they hit the jackpot. Of course, after beating Hungary in the opening round, everyone believed in an easy victory over Scotland, but a tie was an excellent result as well.
They are more or less safe for the next stage and hold everything in their hands. Switzerland is an experienced unit with veteran players who are the leaders in their respective teams.
Regarding the efficiency of their matches, Switzerland isn’t delivering too many goals—two at most in the majority of cases, which happened in seven of the last 10 games. Switzerland has a cohesive backline, and the midfield defends ferociously, too.
Germany
The hosts seem to have been in turbo mode from the start. Two wins in the opening two rounds, with eight goals scored and only one allowed, had to be noted. A 2-0 triumph over Hungary, which had its chances, to be honest, came pretty routinely.
Germans were rational in this one, controlling the pace and not allowing the Hungarians to break free for too long. And even if they had, those occasional bursts were quickly restrained.
This was the fifth meeting in the last six in which Die Mannschaft scored two or more goals. The attack is doing well, with Havertz and Musiala presenting the biggest danger for all the rivals.
Switzerland: Sommer; Schar, Akanji, Rodriguez; Widmer, Xhaka, Freuler, Aebischer; Vargas, Ndoye; Duah
Germany: Neuer; Kimmich, Tah, Rudiger, Raum; Andrich, Can; Musiala, Gros, Sane; Havertz
In 2020, these teams played two UEFA Nations League games. Both ended in a tie, 1-1 in Switzerland and 3-3 in Germany. There are several players in both teams who played in those events.
With one point from this event, Switzerland is second in the group, and Germany first. Now, we are sure that the hosts aren’t thinking about that, but on the other side, the Swiss unit is. They will come out to defend and close all the paths towards their goal. Of course, Germany has a superb attack, but the head coach, Julian Nagelsmann, wouldn’t bring out his best players but rather mix the lineup. Due to this, a moderated efficiency, meaning two or three goals, is our pick here.
Our verdict: 2 or 3 goals
