Prediction: Portugal VS Germany 2025-06-04
The stage is set for a thrilling semi-final matchup between Germany and Portugal in the Nations League. The Germans, led by coach Julian Nagelsmann, are looking to make a statement in front of their home crowd, but they'll have to do it without five key players from their previous match against Italy. Captain Joshua Kimmich, making his 100th appearance for Germany, will be the driving force behind the team's efforts.
As for the odds, Germany is the favorite to win, with prices ranging from 1.83 to 1.87 across various bookmakers. Portugal, on the other hand, is a significant underdog, with odds between 3.8 and 4.5. The draw is priced around 3.5-3.6.
Given the injuries to Germany's squad, I'm not convinced they'll be able to dominate the match. Portugal, with their experience and talent, can certainly cause an upset. However, Germany's home advantage and Kimmich's leadership will make it difficult for Portugal to secure a win.
My best bet for this match is the "Under 2.5 goals" market, priced around 1.98-2.02. With Germany's depleted squad and Portugal's defensive solidity, I expect a tight and cautious match with limited scoring opportunities. The "Under 2.5 goals" bet offers a decent price and a reasonable chance of success, making it my top pick for this semi-final clash.
Best Bet: Under 2.5 goals (price: 1.98-2.02)
