Germany vs Ukraine, UEFA Nations League 2020-21, Match Preview

Germany welcomes Ukraine in the important Group A4 encounter of the UEFA Nations League 2020-21. 

Match Timings:Nov 15, 1:15 AM 

Team Preview 

Germany is back at home to extend their unbeaten streak. They play Ukraine in the must-win game to take the top spot in the table. The hosts lost the opportunity to upstage Spain from the top spot, following the 3-3 draw against Switzerland. Germany still occupies the 2nd spot after dropping 4 points against the Swiss side in two matches. Joachim Low's side had defeated Ukraine previously in an away match, courtesy of Matthias Ginter and Leon Goretzka’s strikes. 

Die Mannschaft is desperate to top the group. In 2018-19, they picked up just two points in the group stage, but they look like a good side this season. They have already qualified for next summer's European Championships, and the recent form put them ahead of Ukraine. Germany cannot afford a draw if they want to upstage Spain from the top as Spain will host Switzerland on the same night. Germany and Ukraine both are just a point ahead of the table-topper. 

On the other hand, Ukraine are entering into this encounter after a 1-0 win over Spain, thanks to Viktor Tsyhankov’s strike. They started the campaign with a 2-1 win against Switzerland and later lost heavily against Spain and France. Andriy Shevchenko’s men can also get the top spot if Spain drops points in their home game. Ukraine faced Germany at home in the first-leg game and suffered a 2-1 defeat. The first half strikes from Ginter and Goretzka did the job for Germany.
