European qualifiers: Slovakia vs Germany, who can reverse the decline?

European qualifiers: Slovakia vs Germany

At 2:45 am on September 5, 2025, Slovakia will face Germany at home in Group A of the European qualifiers. Slovakia is currently ranked 52nd in the world football world, and its performance this year is not ideal. In terms of the UEFA Nations League, it is only ranked second in Group A of the C League, and is only 3 points away from the top of the group. It is a pity that it still failed to qualify for promotion. From the data perspective, Slovakia scored 10 goals in 6 games, conceded 5 goals, and its offense and defense performance was acceptable.

Slovakia has been in a relatively awkward state recently and has not won for four consecutive games. The team played against Israel in the last game, with a ball possession rate of 55%, 8 shots and one shot direct. With the score behind, the team made no achievements in the forward line and eventually suffered a loss of 0-1. In terms of lineup, Vavro Dennis and Dominic Javochek were injured and may not participate in this game.

The German team currently ranks 9th in the world football. The team has well-known players such as Kimmich, Rudiger, Gnabrey, Gretzka, Ter Stegen and Wilz, and their strength cannot be underestimated. The German team performed average this year, but in the UEFA League, the team won the top spot in Group C in the A League. During this period, it was stopped in the semi-finals due to a 0-2 loss to the French team.

The German team has been in poor form recently and has not won for three consecutive games. The team played against France in the last game, with a ball possession rate of 55%, and 20 shots and 6 shots on the right. After being scored by the opponent in a row, the team's forward line was ineffective and was eventually blocked by the opponent 0-2. In addition, the German team has not had a warm-up match recently, and the players are a little lacking in running-in, but fortunately, most of the players serve the Bundesliga and their condition is still guaranteed. In terms of past matches between the two teams, Slovakia played against Germany five times, achieving 2 wins and 3 losses, with a slight disadvantage in the past, but it is worth noting that they suffered losses during the main competition. In terms of recent situation, Slovakia has been in poor form recently and has not won many games; Germany has also performed poorly in its state recently, but it is inevitable that it will lose to strong teams such as France and Portugal. Judging from the current attitudes of all parties, the visiting team has given obvious support. Based on the strength and recent situation of both sides, the German team is still expected to win the opponent in this battle.
