Germany vs Hungary Preview
After impressing during the qualifiers Hungary’s initial stumble has put them under pressure to perform against a buoyant German team. It was a near-perfect evening for Germany on the opening night of Euro 2024, as they thrashed a sorry Scotland 5-1, with five different players on the scoresheet. Dominik Szoboszlai has been stealing all the headlines for the Hungarian national team for a while now. Rightfully so, as the Liverpool player has been topping most metrics amongst his teammates.
Alongside his spot-kick, Havertz also managed to put a free-kick on frame that was only turned away by an excellent save from Angus Gunn, while also assisting Jamal Musiala’s 19th minute goal prior to that. They were fluid with their passing and movement and aggressive on the press, ensuring Scotland were never allowed to feel in any way comfortable. Germany will be respectful of Hungary, who held them to a 2-2 draw at Euro 2020 and took four points off them during the 2022 Nations League.
Germany vs Hungary Team news
Both have fully fit squads ahead of their crucial clash in Stuttgart. Germany will likely continue with their formidable front three of Jamal Musiala, Florian Wirtz, and Arsenal striker Kai Havertz, all of whom found the back of the net against Scotland. Hungary, despite the opening-day loss, are also expected to maintain the same line-up.
