JAPAN VS GERMANY GUESS

These two teams have had very different results going into the opening round of fixtures. Japan were swept aside by an expectedly strong USA, while Germany pulled off a significant and impressive victory over Belgium and this next clash is expected to be a close one, with both teams on a similar level.

The outcome could actually go either way, but Germany being slightly stronger in attack could tip the scales in their favour, so you could back them to come out on top by a narrow margin.
