Germany started the match against Curacao a bit chaotically, but eventually managed to pull themselves together and ultimately achieved a resounding success with a score of 7:1. This was the tenth consecutive victory for the national team and the sixth consecutive match with over 2.5 goals. Thus, Germany seems unlikely to fail and be eliminated for the third consecutive time in the group stage of the World Cup. With their victory over Curacao, they have now become the team with the most goals scored in World Cups, but at the same time, they have not kept a clean sheet in their last seven matches at World Cup tournaments.
Côte d'Ivoire started with a 1:0 win over Ecuador, marking their fourth consecutive victory on the international stage. Three of these were against teams in the top 25 of the FIFA rankings, including a surprise win over France 2:1 earlier this month in a friendly. Côte d'Ivoire is clearly a tough opponent, having lost only one of their last 11 matches.
Prediction: +1.5 AH for Côte d'Ivoire, both teams to scoreBoth teams generally demonstrate good form. Germany may well secure the victory, but it would not be surprising if Côte d'Ivoire puts up a fight or manages to score.
