In this UEFA Nations League match, Greece host Germany, and what makes this game more closely watched than usual is the result of their most recent meeting: Greece went away and beat Germany at home 1-0 last September. That, however, was the only one of their last three meetings that Greece managed, because in the two before that Germany were the winners both times, 2-1 and 4-2. Greece come into this match on an unbeaten run in this competition, having picked up wins over their opponents 2-1 and 1-0 before closing with a 2-2 draw in their latest match. There are still things to point to in their defending, but their consistent scoring keeps them standing on their own. Germany, meanwhile, found their rhythm again in their latest match with a 2-0 win after managing only two 1-1 draws and a 0-1 defeat in this competition before that. The overall picture is a team that dominates possession and gets more shots on target than their opponents by a clear margin, but their finishing still isn't sharp enough to turn that advantage into goals every time. If Germany score first, the game will likely be pulled into the rhythm they favour: long spells of possession and squeezing Greece into defending deeper and deeper. But if Greece take the lead first, Germany will have to open up and attack harder, and the game will turn into a back-and-forth exchange with chances at both ends.
