Germany Vs Austria Preview

Germany had worries about the fitness of in-form striker Lukas Podolski and right-back Phillip Lahm ahead of their crucial Euro 2008 clash with Austria. But, both Podolski and Lahm have been passed fit to start the game against Austria which will be a huge boost for Germany however left-back Marcell Jansen is out with a shoulder injury and Bastian Schweinsteiger is unavailable after being red-carded in the previous game against Croatia.

Austria MUST win against Germany if they are to have any chance of progressing to the quarter finals but they will have to do it without centre-back Sebastian Proedl who is suspended. Martin Hiden could be in line to replace Proedl for Austria which will result in him reaching a new milestone in his Austria career with his 50th cap for his country. The odds are firmly stacked against Austria beating Germany but this isn't the first time Austria have been in this sort of situation. In the 1978 World Cup Austria knocked Germany out at this very same however the Germans only need a draw to go through.

These two great rivals have met each other on 34 different occasions with Germany winning 20 out of 34 and Austria winning 8 out of 34. The last time Austria Vs Germany took place was only in February of this year. Germany beat Austria 3-0 on that occasion.

Germany Vs Austria - LoveFooty.net Prediction

When it is Germany Vs Austria it is always a rather heated affair and i don't expect this game to be any different. The atmosphere will be electric and the emotions will be running wild so we are in for a great game. In these types of games you never really know what's going to happen, the impossible suddenly becomes possible and anything can happen. After Turkey's comeback against Czech Republic last night Austria will believe that they too are capable of defying the odds. However, they will have to find a way of controlling the middle of the park and Ballack in particular if they are to stand a chance as he is a well known match winner in the big games. I think Germany's overwhelming quality will come through in the end but i don't see a walkover in this match. Austria have shown great heart so far at Euro 2008 and they will continue to do so by giving even more against Germany. LoveFooty.net prediction... Austria 1 - Germany 2.
