Jürgen Klopp used his first international window as Germany’s manager to experiment with a massive roster to find out which players will fit his system to revive the national program. There were mixed results that left Germany in third place of Group B in the UEFA Nations League. A loss to Serbia or Netherlands this month likely eliminates Germany from the knockout stage. On the bright side, two wins likely pushes Germany through.
Serbia lost all four matches and has zero chance of advancing to the
knockout round. To avoid relegation, Serbia will need to beat Germany and Greece while also needing Germany to lose to the Netherlands on the final matchday. Serbia is basically playing for pride at this point and might put the focus on younger, developmental players over the next week.

Prediction
Germany wins 4-0. Germany will run the offense through Florian Wirtz who will be the Man of the Match with a goal and two assists. Kai Havertz and Lennart Karl will be on the end of both assists. Nico Schlotterbeck will score a header from a corner kick. Germany will look like a dominant title contender against an overwhelmed Serbian side.
