The most anticipated match Germany vs Netherlands in the Nations League is set to take place on Monday, 14th October, at 7:45 PM local time, in Munich’s Allianz Arena. As a matter of fact, this match will determine a very important encounter for both teams in Group 3 of the first tier, with a place in the Final Four hanging in the balance. While both sides aim for the top spot, Germany, with a slight edge, comes into the match as favorites in the betting predictions.

With 7 points, Germany has netted 9 goals and conceded just 3, performing excellently in the recent performances. Under the leadership of Julian Nagelsmann, they had two outcomes in their favor and will be looking to capitalize on home-field advantage to probably seal the top spot in their group. The Netherlands, however, lies in the rear with 5 points and needs a victory following a disappointing draw against Hungary. With everything on the line, they will be pressing hard for a win to overtake their rivals and claim group leadership.

Germany vs Netherlands: Form Analysis

Germany comes off the back of a 1-2 victory over Bosnia-Herzegovina, with Deniz Undav scoring twice before Edin Džeko netted a late consolation goal. Prior to this, they demolished Hungary 5-0 and drew 2-2 in their earlier face-off with the Dutch. Notably, the German team has not lost during regular time in almost two years, and it has lost only once in their last 17 matches-a loss in extra time during the European Championship semi-final. Nagelsmann’s squad has shown some solid improvement but still suffers from time to time with its lapses in defense.

The Netherlands, on the other hand, have two draws from their last couple of games, a 1-1 draw against Hungary being one of them. Though they avoided defeat in that game, courtesy of a late goal by Denzel Dumfries, Ronald Koeman’s side has been poor at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in their last five matches. Despite these issues, the Netherlands continues to pose an attacking threat.

Predicted Lineups

Germany probable starting XI: Nubel; Kimmich, Rudiger, Tah, Mittelstadt; Andrich, Pavlovic, Gross; Wirtz, Undav, Gnabry

Netherlands probable starting XI: Verbruggen; Dumfries, De Vrij, De Ligt, Van de Ven; Gravenberch, Reijnders, Q Timber; Simons, Zirkzee, Gakpo

• Goals have been conceded by Germany in 3 of their previous 4 matches.
