Germany vs Hungary: Predicted lineups for Euro 2020 clash

Germany go up against Hungary in their final Euro 2020 group stage game on Wednesday knowing that a point will be enough for them to secure their place in the round of 16. 

Following their impressive 4-2 win over Portugal on Saturday, Germany go into the game against Hungary with confidence and momentum back on their side. Joachim Löw’s side are currently second in Group F. And with France and Portugal going up against each other in the other game in the group, Die Mannschaft will fancy their chances of securing the top spot.

Hungary are still in the race to qualify for the last 16, having earned a 1-1 draw against France on matchday two. So Germany cannot afford to take them lightly.

Germany vs Hungary: Predicted lineups for Euro 2020 clash

Germany will likely have to make do without Thomas Müller (knee), who only trained individually on Tuesday. Lukas Klostermann (muscle injury) will also miss the game. But Mats Hummels (knee) and Ilkay Gündogan (calf) should be fit after returning to training on Tuesday. Leon Goretzka could be back in the starting XI in place Müller.

It will be interesting to see if Joachim Löw decides to give any of his players a breather, with Germany’s place in the round of 16 almost in the bag. Leroy Sané and Timo Werner will both be pushing for a spot in the starting XI. Here is how the two teams could line up for Wednesday’s clash.

Germany: Neuer – Ginter, Hummels, Rüdiger – Kimmich, Gündogan, Kroos, Goretzka, Gosens – Havertz, Gnabry

Hungary: Gulacsi – Botka, Orban, Attila Szalai – Nego, Kleinheisler, Nagy, Schäfer, Fiola – Ádám Szalai, Sallai
