Germany vs Belgium Predictions

• Only one of Germany’s last 20 opponents stopped them from scoring.
• Belgium have scored three times across the last three H2H encounters.
• Domenico Tedesco kicked off his Belgium reign with a resounding 3-0 win.

A solid test for neighbouring nations

Germany kicked off this international break with a workmanlike 2-0 friendly win over Peru, but they face a much tougher task here against their neighbours, Belgium. The hosts have no qualification campaign to worry about as they’re set to host EURO 2024, so instead they will test their mettle in a series of high-profile friendlies such as this.

The Germans have dominated this fixture over the years with 20 wins from the 25 all-time encounters (W20, D1, L4), yet they face a rejuvenated side this time around with the fresh ideas of new boss Domenico Tedesco to contend with.

Tedesco’s reign began in fine fashion with a resounding 3-0 victory over Sweden to kick off their European qualification campaign. Romelu Lukaku hit an incredible hat-trick in that game and he’ll be fired up to leave a mark on this game as well.

Belgium can stop the H2H rot

Belgium’s recent form has been less than impressive before the arrival of Tedesco, but with three goals across the last three H2Hs, albeit in defeat each time, they could at least make a mark in this friendly encounter.

We fancy an exciting ding-dong battle in this fixture and as such, we’re backing BTTS & over 2.5 goals with confidence. For smaller stakes, we’re going for a tentative selection on the 2-2 draw in a result which would see Belgium end their rotten run of five straight defeats against Germany since the turn of the century.
