How Germany Have Lined-up Recently
This is Germany’s first match since their Euros quarter-final defeat to Spain at the beginning of July, but in every game up until their exit from the competition, they lined up in a 4-2-3-1 formation.

Kai Havertz spearheaded the attack with Jamal Musiala in behind him, while Toni Kroos dictated the play from his deep midfield role, but they’ll now have to make do without the latter after he announced his retirement from football at the end of his nation’s Euros journey.
Germany Recent Form and Tactics
Despite going out of their home Euros at the quarter-final stage, Germany’s run up until that point was impressive, so much so that many were tipping them to go all the way.
They won two and drew one in the group stage (5-1 vs Scotland, 2-0 vs Hungary, 1-1 vs Switzerland) and beat Denmark 2-0 in the Last 16, before losing 2-1 in heartbreaking fashion to eventual tournament champions Spain, with Mikel Merino scoring a 119th-minute winner.

Cool, calm and collected build-up was the order of play for Julian Nagelsmann’s side, with Kroos running the show in midfield, before Musiala would unleash his world-beating ability on the ball to create for someone else or score himself.
At the back, Antonio Rudiger and Joshua Kimmich would command their defensive line as Die Mannschaft showed exactly what they’re about when it comes to big international tournaments.
Germany Injuries to Consider
At the time of writing, Nagelsmann has no injuries to worry about for his side as they begin preparations for the match against Hungary.
