UEFA Nations, played Friday, October 11th, 2024
Here is our Bosnia-Herzegovina v Germany tip and game preview. Based on our detailed analysis of statistics listed below and other factors, we predicted both teams to not score in this game, under 2.5 goals, and a Germany away win. Our confidence in this pick was moderate relative to other picks.
Bosnia-Herzegovina have found life tough in the early stages of competing in League A of the Nations League competition having picked up just one point from their opening two games, while Germany have picked up four points from their opening two games and the visitors head into this upcoming clash on the back of a 2-2 draw away from home at Netherlands.
Bosnia-Herzegovina gained promotion from League B at the end of the previous Nations League campaign and the hosts are mixing it with the big boys for the first time since the inception of the competition, and early indications suggest the hosts may struggle to maintain their top flight status.
A heavy 5-2 defeat away from home at Netherlands in their opening game was not the sort of start Sergej Barbarez would have had in mind for his side as they prepared for the step up, but nevertheless, Bosnia-Herzegovina steadied the ship with a point gained by way of a 0-0 draw away from home with Hungary.
Recent results though suggest Bosnia-Herzegovina will do well to avoid defeat on Friday night despite returning to the home surroundings of their Stadion Bilino Polje after being handed seven defeats within their last eight internationals in all competitions.
By contrast, Germany have produced an encouraging start to their Nations League campaign as they began this season's competition with a 5-0 thrashing of Hungary on home soil before picking up a useful point in an entertaining 2-2 draw away from home at Netherlands.
The bigger picture shows Germany are starting to rekindle some of their previous success in earlier era's under current head coach Julian Nagelsmann as Die Mannschaft have lost just once in their last 11 internationals overall, which came in the recent Euro 2024 quarter-finals, losing 2-1 to eventual winners, Spain, in extra-time.
Seven wins collected within these previous 11 internationals though underline Germany's ongoing resurgence which included wins in the Euro 2024 finals against Scotland, Hungary (2-0) and Denmark respectively, so the visitors will fancy their chances of picking up another valuable three points at the Stadion Bilino Polje on Friday night.
Results away from home have also produced solid performances from Germany as the visitors have slipped to just three defeats in their previous 19 outings on the road in all competitions, which makes Julian Nagelsmann's side overwhelming favourites for this upcoming clash with Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Bosnia-Herzegovina v Germany Verdict
Bosnia-Herzegovina know their best chance of League A survival will be gaining results on home soil but Germany have produced some solid and impressive results lately on the international stage and the visitors look in good shape to achieve a win to nil here.
Therefore, our main bet will be BTTS No @ 1.80
Other side bets worth considering:
Germany win & BTTS No @ 2.10
Correct Score: Germany 2-0 @ 7.00
