Germany FC, closer to the Quarterfinals

Germany FC is looking to step closer to the Quarterfinals by earning a win in this match against Bosnia and Herzegovina FC. Heading into this match, these two teams have met twice, all in the friendlies, with Germany winning two, and Bosnia without a win. Additionally, in the group standings, Germany are currently at the top, with four points. Germany remains to be unbeaten in the contest, having one win and one loss, and are aiming to continue their run here. On the other hand, Bosnia is at the third of the league table, with just a point, as they remain to be winless here. Bosnia should win in this match, if they want to stand a chance for the next round. The meeting between these two teams is on October 12, 2024, at 2:45 AM (GMT+8).

Germany, following a quarter-final elimination at the European Championships, secured a 5-0 victory over Hungary in their opening Nations League match. They were on course to maintain their 100% start in the Netherlands, but Inter Milan’s wing-back Denzel Dumfries stole the spoils for Oranje. Germany’s superior defence leads them in League A Group 3 on goal difference, but second place would still qualify for direct entry into the quarter-finals. Germany’s struggles away from home have been prolonged, with only four victories from their last 13 matches outside of German territory. They have only won one of their nine Nations League matches on the road, drawing each of their last four matches. Bosnia is unlikely to prevent Germany from making it two for 10 on Friday.

Arsenal’s Kai Havertz is one of five players out of the Mannschaft squad for this month’s fixtures due to a minor knee problem. David Raum, Benjamin Henrichs, and Robin Koch are also out. Germany’s goalkeepers Oliver Baumann, Alexander Nubel, and Janis Blaswich will make their senior debuts.

Bosnia, currently in League B to League A, is set for another two-horse battle with Hungary to avoid finishing dead last and automatic demotion back to the second tier. The Dragons, currently third-placed, have the safety net of a relegation/promotion playoff, but they only beat Hungary on goal difference. Bosnia’s first two goals came against the Netherlands, but they lost five in a 5-2 defeat. They ended the first round of fixtures in third with a goalless draw against Hungary. This ended a run of seven consecutive defeats for the Dragons, who lost their last four Euro 2024 qualifiers and have never won one over Germany as an independent nation. The hosts can take comfort from a three-game winning run at home in the Nations League.

Bosnia’s Barbarez has only seen one withdrawal, with 26-year-old midfielder Ifet Dakovac not being a major miss. Edin Dzeko, 38, is skippered by Fenerbahce’s Edin Dzeko, with Bundesliga-based forward Ermedin Demirovic and ex-Arsenal man Sead Kolasinac in the backline.
