Germany vs France: prediction & betting odds 8 June 2025

The third-place match of the 2024/25 Nations League between Germany and France will be held on June 8 at the MHP Arena in Stuttgart. Germany vs. France: prediction and betting odds, statistics.

Germany

The German national team played in the Nations League semifinals for the first time, but despite having home advantage, they did not reach the tournament's final. Julian Nagelsmann's side could not overcome Portugal, losing 1-2. Notably, Germany opened the scoring early in the second half but could not maintain their lead, conceding twice in five minutes. This result ended Germany's nine-match unbeaten run in the Nations League, during which they secured five wins and four draws.

  • Both teams scored in 6 of Germany's last 8 matches in this tournament.
  • At least three goals were scored in 8 of Germany's last 10 Nations League games.
  • In the Nations League, Germany played 13 home matches, losing only twice (5 wins and 6 draws).

Predicted lineup for Germany (4-4-2)

Marc-André ter Stegen – Waldemar Anton, Maximilian Mittelstädt, Jonathan Tah, Robin Koch – Joshua Kimmich, Alexander Pavlovich, Florian Wirtz, Leon Goretzka – Leroy Sané, Nick Woltemade.

France

Didier Deschamps' side delivered a thrilling performance in their semifinal against the reigning Nations League champions, Spain, but ultimately lost 4-5. Interestingly, France trailed 1-5 during the match but managed to claw back three goals. It is worth noting that this was the 122nd time in their history that France scored more than three goals in a match, and only on four occasions did they not win. Additionally, the offensive focus in this semifinal thriller, which became the highest-scoring in Nations League history, featured 40 shots on goal, 24 of which were by France.

  • France has not lost in 6 of their last 8 matches in this tournament (5 wins and 1 draw).
  • France scored at least two goals in 6 of their last 8 Nations League games.
  • The team has not lost a second half in their last 8 Nations League matches (6 wins and 2 draws).

Predicted lineup for France (4-2-3-1)

Mike Maignan – Theo Hernandez, Ibrahima Konaté, Clément Lenglet, Pierre Kalulu – Manu Koné, Adrien Rabiot – Michael Olise, Ousmane Dembélé, Désiré Doué – Kylian Mbappé.

Germany vs. France: Match Prediction

France was just minutes away from taking their semifinal match into extra time. The team had an incredible second half against Spain, scoring four goals in 30 minutes. It seems France will be unstoppable in the third-place match as well.

Germany will not easily give up third place. Playing at home in front of their fans, the team will fight not only for their prestige but also for their first medal in this tournament. Germany's scoring streak in the Nations League now stands at 10 matches, with the team scoring 24 goals in this edition.

It is highly likely that both teams will aim to play open football in this encounter. Both teams are known for their scoring ability and are ready to delight their fans with at least three goals. My prediction: Total over 3 goals
