Prediction: 4-1
Latvia
Following a 1-1 draw with Denmark, Germany will be looking to get back on course when they face Latvia in their final warm-up game before EURO 2020. The Germans failed to turn their dominance into victory against Denmark, but they are widely expected to crush the Latvians in Dusseldorf. Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos is widely expected to return to the starting XI, as well as Chelsea attacker Timo Werner.
The former Soviet republic, on the other hand, played out a thrilling 3-3 draw with Turkey in their last World Cup qualifier, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry in Monday’s friendly against the star-studded Joachim Low’s troops. David faces Goliath at Merkur Spiel-Arena and anything but a routine home win would be a major surprise. This will be the first meeting between the two teams since 2004 when they played out a goalless draw at the European Championship finals.
Highlighted Player (Timo Werner):
Timo Werner is a German starlet, who began his senior career at Vfb Stuttgart. The German forward, who was born in Stuttgart on March 6, 1996, scored 13 goals in 95 appearances in the league for Die Schwaben and in 2016 he moved to fellow Bundesliga side Leipzig and he impressed with the Red Bulls in the 2016/2017 Bundesliga campaign, scoring 21 goals in the process.
To make things even better for the talented attacker, he represented Germany at the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup and it has to be noted that he provided an assist for Lars Stindl in the title game. Despite the fact that coach Joachim Low rested star players at the tournament in Russia, the Germans eventually won the trophy.
Timo Werner played for the Germany U17 team as well and he won the silver medal with die Mannschaft at the 2012 UEFA European Championship. His main position is centre forward, but he is used as a winger as well. Timo Werner’s contract with Leipzig should expire on June 30, 2020.
Highlighted Team (Latvia):
Latvia is yet another former Soviet republic. The Latvian footballers played for the Soviet Union national team until 1992 and they have been playing for Latvia ever since. The Sarkanbaltsarkanie (Red-white-red) did remarkably well to qualify for the Euro 2004 finals, but they failed to impress at the showpiece tournament in Portugal.
Latvia kicked off their Euro 2004 campaign with a 2-1 loss to Czech Republic and they managed to hold Germany to a goalless draw in their second group game. The former Soviet republic suffered a 3-0 loss to Netherlands in their last game in Group D and, as a result, they did not make it to the knockout stages of the European Championship finals.
Latvia suffered their biggest defeat on May 29, 1927 when they were beaten by Sweden 12-0 in Stockholm. Speaking of their biggest victory, the Latvians outclassed Lithuania 5-0 on two occasions. The Latvian national football team play their home games at Skonto stadium in Riga and the capacity of the venues is 9.500.
