The Ice Hockey World Championship has already proven to be a very even competition in its 2025 edition, and even though it’s undeniable that the US must be considered as a strong contender to lift the cup, the reality is that their current squad is still in doubt after not being able to win their last two games in regulation time. With that in mind, their next game against Germany will be key for their recovery aspirations, as they currently are in the fourth spot of Group B.

Nonetheless, it cannot be ignored that the US had a very complicated game against Norway last Wednesday in which their defensive line struggled in the same way it did during their game against Switzerland. With that in mind, the American squad is expected to show a more solid performance to avoid getting stuck in the fourth spot, a scenario that would be risky as their qualification for the next round is still in doubt.

Meanwhile, Germany was also having a very nice performance during the beginning of the tournament, however they faced many issues to be competitive against Switzerland, a tean which dominated them 5-1. In this matter, it’s worth noting that Germany also has important absences for this tournament, so they cannot be taken as one of the biggest contenders to lift the World Championship.
