UEFA Nations, played Saturday, November 16th, 2024
Here is our Germany v Bosnia-Herzegovina tip and game preview. Based on our detailed analysis of statistics listed below and other factors, we predicted both teams to score in this game, over 2.5 goals, and a Germany home win. Our confidence in this pick was high relative to other picks.
Germany are currently enjoying a successful campaign in this edition of the Nations League as Saturday evening's hosts sit top of the Group 3 table where they possess a five-point lead over second placed Netherlands but even more importantly, a five-point cushion over third placed Hungary ahead of this upcoming clash against Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Having already collected wins against each of the other three nations in the group, namely Hungary 5-0, Bosnia-Herzegovina 2-1 and Netherlands 1-0, a draw may be enough to secure the Germans a place in the quarter-finals but having suffered just the single loss in their last 13 internationals overall, Julian Nagelsmann's side will be confident that they can finish the job at the Europa-Park Stadion.
That rare defeat came in the form of a 2-1 loss to Spain in extra-time in the quarter-finals of the Euro 2024 tournament back in the summer, but the hosts have also collected no fewer than nine victories within these previous 13 matches.
Germany are also unbeaten in their last five internationals on home soil, picking up four wins in the process and the hosts will be tough to beat on Saturday evening as well, as they look to close in on a place in the last eight of this competition.
Bosnia-Herzegovina occupy bottom place in the Group 3 table with just one point to their name as they prepare for this tough looking assignment on Saturday night at the Europa-Park Stadion.
The visitors' singular point came in the form of a 0-0 stalemate away from home at Hungary but otherwise Bosnia-Herzegovina have had to endure a dismal campaign in this season's Nations League having suffered defeats at the hands of the Netherlands 5-2, Germany 2-1 and Hungary 2-0 respectively, the latter two losses being dealt to them on home soil.
The bigger picture shows Bosnia-Herzegovina have now failed to win any of their last 10 internationals overall in all competitions, slipping to nine defeats in the process which does not bode well for an away fixture against the runaway leaders of Group 3.
Goals also look set to feature in this upcoming encounter at the Europa-Park Stadion as seven out of Bosnia-Herzegovina's last 10 matches have also resulted in Over 2.5 goals being scored as well, while picking up just one win from their last 14 away games in all competitions.
Germany v Bosnia-Herzegovina Verdict
Germany's recent results under national coach Julian Nagelsmann have certainly been encouraging and having beaten Bosnia-Herzegovina 2-1 and 3-1 in their previous two meetings, a home win plus a few goals looks to be on the cards again this Saturday.
Therefore, our main bet will be Germany win & Over 3 goals @ 1.90
Other side bets worth considering:
Over 2.5 goals & BTTS Yes @ 2.50
Correct Score: Germany 3-1 @ 11.00
