Germany v Northern Ireland Betting Preview – World Cup 2018 Qualifying 11th October

This looks to be a bit of a thankless task for the Irish here as they head out to Hannover to take on the Germans on Tuesday night. Northern Ireland have taken four points from their two qualification games so far, but they are likely to come off second best against a Germany side which looks to be on fire at the moment. Die Mannschaft have beaten Norway and the Czech Republic 3-0 so far in qualification and look very strong. Is there a way for the Irish to survive this game, which is unquestionably the toughest of their qualification group. A point out of this one would be huge.

Germany v Northern Ireland Betting Tips

Who would want to run into Germany at the moment? No-one really. The Germans are on cruise control already in their World Cup 2018 qualifying group after back to back wins to open their campaign with. They stated with a 3-0 away win in Norway and then won by the same scoreline at home against the Czech Republic on the weekend. So they have now scored three goals or more in five of their last seven qualification matches and it’s all too easy for them really. This may not be a great night for Northern Ireland. Germany took a 1-0 win over Northern Ireland when the two nations met at Euro 2016, but Die Mannschaft wasted a lot of chances to post a bigger scoreline. Germany have now lost just one of their last six in a W4 D1 L1 record and they have the quality in their ranks to tear Northern Ireland apart. Germany are a quote of 8/15 to win to nil in this one as they haven’t shipped  goal this season yet.

Thomas Muller has scored two goals in each of Germany’s two qualification matches this season and the brilliant forward is a price of 4/6 in the anytime goalscorer market with Mario Gotze at a11/10. You can take a quote of 10/11 on Germany to win by 3 goals or more in the game, which looks a good margin. Or if you think that they are going to continue their current winning trend then you can have a crack at them to win by exactly three goals at 10/3. Along with the two qualifiers they have played, they have also played a friendly against Finland this season and in total across the three games have scored a total of eight unanswered goals. How are Northern Ireland going to pose a threat to them? The last time that Northern Ireland went to Germany was in the Euro 2000 qualifiers and Germany ran out 4-0 winners. Overall, Germany have a W5 D3 L0 record against the Irish.

Northern Ireland have failed to score in three of their last four against Germany and just the one goal netted in total in that sequence. This is just about the worst draw that they could have gotten and it may be just about keeping the score down for them, because it is difficult to see the Irish winning this one. Michael O’Neill’s men opened with a draw in the Czech Republic and then hammered San Marino 4-0 on the weekend to sit on four points. Most sides that go up against Germany in this group are going to lose, so damage limitation could be the order of the day for the Irish. Striker Kyle Lafferty is running at a price of 6/1 in the anytime goalscorer market just to highlight how hard it is going to be for the Irish. Northern Ireland managed just over 21% of possession the game against Germany at Euro 2016, managing just one shot in the entire game as well. It’s going to need some thing spectacular from them to avoid defeat here.

Germany v Northern Ireland Predictions

Tough game for the Irish here. There isn’t going to much chance of them walking away with a win in this one, but can they hold out to a draw? That’s not likely either because they are going to be on the back foot for most of this game and you would back the Germans to get through the task. Germany have looked in a confident, hungry mood and seeing them win by three or more goals is probably about right.
