Hungary – Germany: Preview
A Low-Scoring Affair On The Cards
Hungary and Germany square off in Budapest on Friday in a crucial UEFA Nations League match. Both teams are level on points at the top of Group A3, so the match could have a significant impact on who wins the group and earns promotion to League A.
Hungary
Hungary has been in excellent form in recent months, winning four of their last five matches. They are unbeaten in their last six home matches, and they have only conceded one goal in their last four matches at the Puskas Arena.
Hungary's defence has been their strength in recent months, and they will need to be at their best against a potent German attack. They will also need to be clinical in front of goal, as they have not scored more than one goal in any of their last four matches.
Germany
Germany has not been in the best of form in recent months, winning just two of their last five matches. They have also lost two of their last three away matches, and they have only scored one goal in their last three matches.
Germany's attack has been misfiring in recent months, and they will need to find their scoring boots if they are to beat Hungary. They will also need to be more solid in defence, as they have conceded seven goals in their last five matches.
Prediction
This is a tough match to call, but Hungary's excellent home form gives them a slight edge. They are also the more in-form team at the moment. Germany has the quality to win the match, but they will need to improve their form if they are to do so.
A low-scoring affair is on the cards, with both teams likely to be cautious in defence. Hungary is likely to sit back and try to hit Germany on the counter-attack, while Germany will need to be patient in their build-up play.
