Northern Ireland vs Germany prediction

Northern Ireland put in an excellent performance the other day to defeat a strong Slovakia side by two goals to nil at Windsor Park. That backed up a win in Luxembourg last month to leave them on six points after three matches, after a hard-fought 3-1 defeat to Germany last month, which flattered Die Mannschaft.

The Germans began their qualification campaign with a very poor 2-0 loss to Slovakia in Bratislava, heaping the pressure on Julian Nagelsmann. Comfortable wins by the scoreline, albeit underwhelming in terms of performance level, against the Northern Irish and Luxembourg leaves them also on six points.

If Northern Ireland can make things difficult and suffocating for a German side lacking cohesion then they have a chance, albeit the visitors surely have to show their quality to inch towards North America.

Northern Ireland vs Germany tip: Germany to win & under 3.5 goals
