<p>Germany were embarrassed the last time they played Slovakia. <strong>Julian Nagelsmann’s</strong> side looked anything but their efficient selves when they took to the field in Bratislava at the Tehelné pole in September.</p> <p>However, will they be able to rectify that shock defeat on Tuesday, November 18, when the game is played at 05:45am AEST.</p> <p>Indeed, it could be a shootout between the two nations if they both pick up expected wins against Luxembourg and Northern Ireland. Both sit at the top of Group A with nine points before these games, so anything could happen by the time this game comes around…</p> <p>Let’s check out some of our top Germany vs Slovakia betting predictions for this intriguing clash!</p> <h2>Germany vs Slovakia Betting Preview</h2> <p>As noted, the last encounter between these two nations didn’t quite go to plan for the favourite in this contest.</p> <p><strong>Francesco Calzona’s</strong> side managed to claim an impressive 2-0 victory over the Germans, with goals either side of the halftime whistle.<strong> David Hancko</strong> got the first with three minutes left to play in the first half, while <strong>David Strelec</strong> scored ten minutes after the restart.</p> <p>It wasn’t exactly undeserved, but they managed to do what their opponents had failed to do: take their chances. Slovakia had eight attempts on goal, with five of them being on target and testing <strong>Oliver Baumann</strong> in the German goal. Germany had more attempts (11) but fewer were on <strong>Martin Dubravka’s</strong> target (four).</p> <p>Germany had more of the ball in the game, boasting 62% compared to Slovakia’s 38%, while they had eight corners compared to five. Still, as soccer can often show us, it’s about what you do with the ball when you have it.</p> <h2>Germany vs Slovakia Betting Predictions</h2> <p>Will we get a repeat of what happened in Bratislava, or will the game at the Red Bull Arena in Leipzig see the Germans rise to the occasion, especially with automatic qualification to the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup on the line?</p> <p>Indeed, our <strong>betting prediction is that Germany are efficient and get the win</strong> this time around. The <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/soccer/world-cup/fifa-world-cup-qualifiers-europe/germany-v-slovakia-9840221">Germany vs Slovakia betting odds</a> <strong>heavily favour the hosts</strong> in this game, backing our prediction. With there potentially being everything to play for on the line, we expect Nagelsmann’s group of stars to have too much for Slovakia on Tuesday morning.</p> <p>Goals can often be found when these two nations clash, with previous results including 3-0 (Germany), 1-3 (Slovakia), 2-1 (Germany), and 1-4 (Germany), in addition to the recent 2-0 result. With this in mind, we like the value in the ‘<strong>Over 2.5 Goals</strong>’ market, as well as the ‘<strong>Yes</strong>’ outcome in the ‘<strong>Both Teams to Score</strong>’ market. A ‘<strong>Correct Score</strong>’ bet on ‘<strong>Germany 2-1</strong>’ looks good to us.</p>
