Germany is in fine form and won’t be too hampered with the shock loss last time out.
They still look a formidable side capable of going the distance.
North Macedonia’s win over Liechtenstein did not need much of effort but the tougher test awaits against the German side.
We expect the visitors to gain a comfortable win here.
