vs Prediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Greece begin the League A group stage with no matches played in the competition. In their last friendly they lost 0-1 to Italy; before that they drew 2-2 away to Sweden and 0-0 with Hungary, and further back lost 0-1 to Paraguay, after another goalless draw away to Belarus in World Cup qualifying. Germany also start the group with no games played. In their last World Cup match they drew 1-1 with Paraguay; before that they lost 1-2 away to Ecuador, and further back won three straight games: 2-1 over Ivory Coast, 7-1 over Curaçao and 2-1 away to the United States. In the two meetings on record Germany have won both times, 2-1 and 4-2, both at home. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
