As part of the match of the third round of the group stage of the World Cup, the players of the national teams of Costa Rica and Germany will come face to face. Which of the rivals will get the victory in this meeting? Our sports portal evaluates the forecast for this meeting.Costa Rica
The Costa Rican national team began its performances at the tournament with a crushing defeat against Spain with a score of 0:7, and therefore no one had any doubts that the Costa Ricans would not be able to oppose their opponent in the match with Japan.
Nevertheless, the team from the North America zone managed to surprise their fans. Costa Rica was able to win over the opponent with a score of 1-0, having managed to score three points. Now the team of nominal hosts has every chance of reaching the playoffs, but for this the team needs to create another miracle and beat Germany.Germany
After the humiliating performance at the World Cup in Russia, when the German team left the tournament at the group stage, everyone believed that Germany would be able to avoid a similar fate at this World Championship, but the reality is that the Bundestim may remain without a playoff.
The Germans have only a draw in the game with Spain (1:1), which was obtained at the very end of the meeting. Against the background of the defeat in the first round, in the match against Japan (1:2), the chances of the German team look small. The only thing that saves is the fact that the Asian team will play in a parallel meeting with Spain, which will try to complete the group stage with a victory, and in this case, the Bundestim themselves need to win as confidently as possible, which guarantees an exit to the decisive stage of the World Cup.Statistics and figures:
- Germany is the favorite of the meeting;
- Costa Rica has 3 wins in 5 matches;
- Germany has won only once in the last 5 games;
- The last and only face-to-face meeting of the rivals ended with a score of 4:2 in favor of the Germans.
Forecast I believe that Germany will be able to confidently defeat its opponent in this match and defeat him.
Costa Rica scored three points in its asset in the match against Japan, but it will not have to count on more.
