On June 15, a match will be held within the framework of the European Football Championship 2020 between the national teams of France and Germany. We offer you a forecast for this meeting.
France
The current world champions are considered almost the main contenders for victory at Euro 2020. The French have not lost any power since the World Cup in Russia, and even gained some points. However, the test for the French is not the easiest. In the group, they were joined by such powerful rivals as Portugal and Germany. There is also Hungary, which should not be underestimated. However, the French are used to fighting on equal terms with the tops.
Germany
This is the last tournament for Joachim Loew as coach of the German national team. After Euro 2020, he will be replaced by Hansi Flick. Naturally, "Yoggi" will try to slam the door loudly at the end of his career in the national team. Germany has lost some ground in recent years, and the recent 0-6 defeat to Spain in the League of Nations has hurt the Bundestim's ambitions. But do not forget that this meeting will be in Munich, which means that the Germans will have excellent support from more than 14 thousand fans.
Statistics and figures:
- France have lost only one match out of their last twenty, and that was a friendly;
- Germany have two defeats in their last ten meetings;
- France has not lost to Germany for five consecutive head-to-head matches since 2014.
Forecast:
The main match of the first round will be held in Munich. France and Germany are the traditional favorites of any major football tournament. However, now the French look a little more solid. And it's not even that they are world champions. It's just that Didier Deschamps has a much richer selection of players than Joachim Loew. In addition, the great and terrible Karim Benzema has returned to the French squad. We believe that it makes sense to bet on France, but for safety reasons we take a zero head start.
