World Cup Football Tips this Weekend
Germany (2.30) v Argentina (3.50); Draw (3.25)
Germany will be bidding to become the first European side to win a World Cup on South American soil, when Joachim Low’s side face Argentina on Sunday.
Die Mannschaft are expected to name the same starting line-up that comprehensively thrashed hosts Brazil in the semi-finals, with defender Mats Hummels expected to be declared fit.
Germany have lost just one of their matches in the World Cup finals against Argentina, but their most recent clash resulted in a 3-1 victory to Argentina in Frankfurt.
Opponents Argentina will be bidding to stop Germany knocking them out for the third successive World Cup, as Alejandro Sabella’s side look to lift the trophy for the second time in their history.
Argentina have yet to concede a goal in the knock-out stages of the competition and la Albiceleste’s tally of four clean sheets during the tournament suggests another similarly defensive outlook will be deployed for Sabella’s experienced and tenacious defensive unit.
News of Angel Di Maria and Sergio Aguero’s return to training could prove a timely boost for the South American challengers, whilst Lionel Messi has not gone four games without a goal in over three years of international football for la Albiceleste.
No country has appeared in more World Cup finals than Germany (8) and despite Sabella’s continued defensive outlook, Europe’s most impressive powerhouse should overcome the magic of Messi this weekend.
