A place at the 2026 World Cup is on the line in Leipzig on Monday as Germany and Slovakia meet to decide the winner of UEFA qualifying Group A.
Both sides are currently locked together on 12 points, but Germany have the slightly superior goal difference, which means that a draw will be enough to secure Die Mannschaft a place at next year's tournament.
When the sides met on Matchday One, Slovakia secured a famous 2-0 victory thanks to goals from David Hancko and David Strelec. However, since that loss, Germany have bounced back to put together a four game winning streak, thanks to doubles over both Northern Ireland and Luxembourg.
Slovakia also recorded a double over group minnows Luxembourg, but a shock 2-0 loss away to Northern Ireland has left them needing a win on Monday night to reach the World Cup for the second time in their history.

Our Germany vs Slovakia Prediction
Germany are massive favorites here, but we have been unconvinced by Julian Nagelsmann's side during qualification and we would not be surprised to see Slovakia cause them plenty of problems.
We're not going all out and predicted that Slovakia will avoid defeat, but we do think there is some value in backing them to keep this a very close contest.
Francesco Calzona's team have conceded just twice in their last five matches, and given Germany's relatively poor form in front of goal, we think this will be an extremely tight game.
Our prediction for Germany vs Slovakia is: Slovakia (+1) to win.
