Germany vs North Macedonia prediction and match preview 

Germany registered a convincing 3-0 win over Iceland in their opening game of the World Cup qualifying campaign with Leon Goretzka, Kai Havertz and Ilkay Gundogan getting on the scoresheet. Die Mannschaft continued their winning run with a win over Romania, with Serge Gnabry's 16th-minute strike being the only goal of the game. Joachim Low's men will hope to continue their winning streak in what will be his final contribution to Germany's World Cup qualification bid. The Germans have done well to bounce back from their disappointing Nations League campaign, and will hope to maintain their spot at the top of Group J.

On the other hand, North Macedonia started their campaign with a disappointing 3-2 defeat against Romania last week, despite the best efforts of Arijan Ademi and Aleksandar Trajkovski. They however bounced back with a thumping 5-0 win over Liechtenstein last time out, with Trajkovski scoring twice, with Eljif Elmas, Enis Bardhi, and Ilija Nestorovski all contributing to the score. Despite their brilliance, North Macedonia will have their backs against the wall against Germany, who will be favourites to clinch a comfortable win at home on Wednesday night. 

Germany vs North Macedonia team news 

Germany have no fresh injury concerns, but Marcel Halstenberg, Jonas Hoffman, Toni Kroos and Niklas Sule remain ruled out having returned to their respective clubs. Full-back Robin Gosens is a doubt for the game though, so Lukas Klostermann should continue at right-back while Phillip Max could come in at left-back. Barcelona keeper Marc Ander Ter Stegen is most likely to step in for captain Manuel Neuer. For North Macedonia, Ivan Trichkowski, Gjoko Zajkov and Tihomir Kostadinov are the only three absentees with injury and coronavirus.
