Germany vs Kazakhstan prediction

Germany raised eyebrows and attracted attention for their offensive showing last time out as they blew away Hungary. They were victorious by six points to one, but the likelihood is the Kazakhstan will prove far more difficult to score against with a meaner defensive line and an impressive goaltender.

Whilst Germany boasts flair and speed, Kazakhstan have a real grit about them and the way they grinded out a tough 2-1 win over a very strong Norway team cannot be ignored. So often in fixtures like this, it’s the defence that winds up on top and with that in mind, seriously consider backing Kazakhstan to take this one.
