Germany vs Ukraine
International Friendlies
Date: 12 June 2023, Monday
Kick-off at 17:00 UK / 18:00 CET
Venue: wohninvest WESERSTADION (Bremen).
Germany will mark the anniversary of 1,000th match for the national team with the charity game against Ukraine on Monday afternoon at the WESERSTADION in Bremen.
Hansi Flick has called up a very strong squad for the upcoming series of friendlies against Ukraine, Poland, and Colombia.
As you know, Germany do not participate the ongoing 2024 EURO qualifications as the hosts of the tournament.
Die Mannschaft have played two friendlies since suffering an embarrassing early group-stage elimination at the World Cup in Qatar.
They dispatched Peru 2-0 before losing 2-3 to Belgium in March this year. Flick wants to build momentum ahead of the European Championship in his country and we could see competitive football from the Germans in the next series of exhibitions.
Ukraine, on the other side, will use this game as a preparation for the very important upcoming EURO qualifiers against North Macedonia and Malta.
Interim manager Ruslan Rotan will thus most likely make early changes in the second half to give rest to his key players ahead of a super-important trip to Skopje and the game against North Macedonia on Friday.
Ukraine have lost the opener in the qualifying campaign to England 2-0 in March at Wembley Stadium. Italy are also in their group which is why it is clear that the Ukrainians have no room for mistakes in the next two outings.
This is a charity match and we do not expect any kind of tension on the pitch. Similarly, neither team should sit tight at the back and defend for the entire game in these circumstances.
Germany possess more quality in their ranks, they play at home, and this is their anniversary. This is why we will take Germany to win & Both Teams To Score pick all-day long at the attractive 2.87 odds. Alternatively, the Over 3.5 goals FT bet is also worth backing at the 2.25 odds.
