Germany will be looking to take control of Group J when they face Romania in Bucharest for a World Cup qualifier on Sunday.
The Germans kicked off their WCQ campaign with a 3-0 win over Iceland on Thursday, while Romania beat North Macedonia.
Romania looked in complete control against North Macedonia, carrying a 2-0 lead into the final ten minutes of the match. But two quick-fire goals from the visitors saw Romania throw away their lead.
However, with five minutes remaining, Iani Hagi stepped up to score the winner and get Romania’s campaign off to a winning start.
Romania are now unbeaten in their last three games in all competitions, picking up two wins and one draw in the process.
It is also worth noting that Romania have scored over 2.5 goals in each of their last two victories, although they have only kept one clean sheet in their previous 11 games.
After losing 6-0 to Spain back in November, it was imperative that Germany bounced back with a positive result against Iceland.
Thankfully, they sealed a comfortable 3-0 win on Thursday, with goals from Leon Goretzka, Kai Havertz and Ilkay Gundogan.
Having enjoyed 82% possession and racked up 15 shots, it could be argued that Germany should have scored more.
Still, Germans have only lost one of their last 14 matches in all competitions, with eight wins coming during that period.
Head-to-head: Germany have claimed eight victories against Romania overall, while Romania have only picked up two wins in this fixture (three draws).
However, the last meeting between these two sides came all the way back in 2007, with Germany winning 3-1 on that occasion.
Team news: 21-year-old Valentin Mihalia could make his debut for Romania on Sunday, with the Parma youngster earning his first senior international call-up.
Bayern Munich star Joshua Kimmich is a doubt for Germany, while Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos has left the squad due to injury.
Germany beat Iceland with ease last time out, although they could have made the scoreline look far more emphatic.
On the flip side, Romania will be full of confidence after scoring a late winner in their previous outing.
Forebet predicts that Romania will frustrate Germany on Sunday, so much so that Romania could hold the Germans to a low-scoring draw.
