On June 7, 2024, the national teams of Germany and Greece will face each other in a friendly match. The Germans are finalizing their preparations for the "home" championship, while their next opponent, Greece, failed to qualify at the last moment.
Germany vs Greece: Key Statistics and Trends
- Germany won twice in a row in 2024 but did not score against Ukraine.
- Greece has gone four consecutive matches without losing in regular time.
- Germany wins the first half in 16% of their matches, while Greece wins 40% of the time.
Germany - Form Analysis:
The "Bundesmannschaft" failed to advance past the group stage of the World Cup for the second consecutive time. These subsequent failures led to the dismissal of Hansi Flick. Nagelsmann took over, but under his leadership, there were setbacks: only a draw with Mexico and losses to Turkey and Austria.
The year 2024 has been much better. In March, they defeated two strong neighbors, France away and the Netherlands at home. The summer began with a home match against Ukraine, which resulted in a goalless draw as Ukraine played defensively.
Greece - Form Analysis:
The "Hellenes" have shown decent football under Gus Poyet. They first won their Nations League group and then secured a solid third place in a group with France and the Netherlands, which was about as much as could be expected.
There was a chance to qualify for the Euro through the Nations League path. However, after scoring five unanswered goals against Kazakhstan, Greece ended up drawing 0-0 with Georgia in the decisive round and lost in the penalty shootout. Following this, the Uruguayan coach left.
They have not yet found a full-time coach. Under the interim coach Papanikolaou, they will conduct this training camp, starting in Mönchengladbach.

Germany is expected to learn from their recent draw, and their next opponent is not as disciplined. Betting on the home team to win with a "-1.5 goals" handicap (odds – 1.83) seems reasonable.
