Harry Kane will lead the team up front. Raheem Sterling and Jack Grealish may replace Jarrod Bowen and Mason Mount.
England Probable Lineup (3-4-3): Pickford; Walker, Coady, Maguire; James, Phillips, Rice, Saka; Sterling, Kane, Grealish
Germany Probable Lineup against England

Kai Havertz could come in for Timo Werner. Jamal Musiala could replace Leroy Sane up front. Hansi Flick could go with the same back line that started against Italy. Ilkay Gundogan could replace Leon Goretzka in the midfield.

Germany vs. England Prediction
It will be a toe-to-toe battle between the two old rivals at Allianz Arena. Both England and Germany will try to secure their first win in the Nations League.
Hansi Flick’s men are unbeaten in their last 10 matches, with 8 wins and 2 draws. They drew their last match against Italy and against the Netherlands in March.
On the other hand, England went down against Hungary in their last match. That result would count for little in a high voltage match tie like this and is considered a fluke.
In the last 5 head-to-head meetings between them, England won 2, Germany 2, and they drew 1. England beat Germany in the Euro Cup 2020 (held in 2021) by 2-0 goals in the round of 16.
We don’t see any team losing tonight. Germany will get home support. The Three Lions have the firepowers to hurt the home side. The match should end in a draw with both teams sharing the spoils. Germany 1-1 England.
