Germany v Ghana

Germany's loss to Serbia has left Group D wide open, Germany now have one less point than Ghana and both teams will be going all out for the win.

Germany's win against Australia was one of the performances of the World Cup so far, was it a fluke or was it a true reflection of the German ability?

Germany v Ghana Match Odds

Match betting is a massively popular market and the first market most punters choose to look at as your decision in this market is likely to impact all other bets you place on the game.

BACK GERMANY TO BEAT GHANA

Germany may have been beaten by Serbia but even with ten men they still created loads of chances and they just missed the man who had been sent off to finish off those chances. Of course Klose will be suspended now but they have plenty of players who can step in and help them gain their second win of the World Cup against a Ghana team who have been fairly solid and reliable but lack the class of Germany.

Germany v Ghana Asian Handicap Odds

The Asian Handicap is an interesting bet as it usually gives one team a lead that should be enough to cancel out any superiority the favourites for the game have.

BACK GERMANY -1

With this -1 handicap we must decide if Germany are more likely to win by two or more goals or if Ghana are more likely to get a draw or win. Germany will probably only win by one goal in which case you would get your stake returned but Germany are capable of winning this by more, they have missed plenty of chances at the World Cup so far and if they get a bit more clinical they could win this by two or three goals.

Germany v Ghana Goals Odds

Take a look at recent results for the two sides to help decide what the best bets are in the over/under betting and also the correct score market.

Germany Recent Competitive Results

Ghana Recent World Cup Qualification Results

BACK GERMANY 1-0 AND UNDER 2.5 GOALS

Germany will miss Klose and his goals in this game and this could be the tightest defence they have faced so far at this World Cup so don't expect too many goals. Ghana have only conceded once and that was a goalkeeping error so it should certainly pay to go with under 2.5 goals in this fixture. Despite missing Klose Germany should still win this game but it may only be by the odd goal, take Germany to win this match 1-0.

Germany v Ghana Player Odds

Some of the most fun markets to bet on are the player markets, such as first goalscorer and anytime goalscorer. They are usually relatively big odds and can give plenty of reward if you pick correctly.

Germany v Ghana Team News

Miroslav Klose is suspended for Germany after his sending off against Serbia and Mario Gomez is likely to come in for his club team mate. Alternatively Lukas Podolski could be given a more central role but he is expected to be kept on the left side of the attack.

BACK LUKAS PODOLSKI TO SCORE FIRST AGAINST GHANA

Lukas Podolski scored six goals in qualifying (one less than Klose) and with Klose suspended he is likely to prove his team's biggest goal threat by some distance. He is a threat from open play, penalties and free kicks and he will be looking to add to the goal he scored against Australia. With very few goals expected in this match it looks best to back Podolski only to score the first goal of the match.

Germany v Ghana Half Time Odds

The latest tips that include the half time result in them, some of the most popular bets here are half time result and half time/full time.

BACK DRAW / GERMANY IN THE HALF TIME / FULL TIME BETTING

This game is expected to be extremely tight and it may just be a case of predicting what half Germany's goal comes in. They scored plenty of first half goals in qualifying but this game may be a bit unique, ghana might think a draw will be good enough so could be extra cautious in this game and with Germany missing plenty of chances so far it may be the case that they don't score until the second half, so back the draw at half time and Germany to be winning by full time.

Germany v Ghana Best Bet

BACK GERMANY 1-0

Germany look most likely to win a low scoring game here so with very few correct score options to be considered there looks to be plenty of value in going for Germany to win this one 1-0. Ghana are very tight defensively and Germany haven't been taking their chances so 1-0 has to be the call.
