Germany vs Luxembourg | Football Preview & Betting Tips | 10 October 2025
Germany, top of Group F, are in fine form after a 4-0 thrashing of Hungary and a 2-1 win over Bosnia, with manager Julian Nagelsmann calling their “convincing start” vital on Oct 5, though injuries are a concern. Luxembourg, second after a 0-2 loss to Northern Ireland, have manager Guy Melcher urging “focus” on Oct 4, despite a depleted squad. The hosts will likely deploy a 4-3-3, dominating possession and pressing high, while the visitors’ 5-4-1 will sit deep and look to counter. The Allianz Arena will be rocking, but Luxembourg’s fans will try to make their presence felt.
