Hungary welcome Germany to the Puskas Arena. Germany have already won the Group and will play their last game before the playoffs. Hungary on the other hand have hope of finishing top two and will remain third.
Hungary will host Group 3 winners Germany in their final game before the playoffs. After a heavy 4-0 defeat to the Netherlands, Hungary look to bounce back after conceding two first half penalties. Manager Adam Szalai also had an medical emergency prompting 13+ minutes of added time giving the Netherlands time to add two more to the score sheet. Magyars remain third in the group with their lone win coming against Bosnia-Herzegovina. Finishing third Hungary will need to come back next spring for a two legged playoff to determine if they will stay in League A.
Germany enters the clash with Hungary riding the momentum of a historic 7-0 victory over Bosnia Herzegovina, the largest win in Nations League history. Already assured of a first place finish and a quarter-final spot Julian Nagelsmann’s team has shown growing confidence extending their winning streak to three games. The Germans could now secure a fourth consecutive victory for the first time since 2022. Germany has scored 17 times after five games and conceding only three times which will surely give them a confidence boost ahead of the playoffs.
Jonathan Tah is suspended while Joshua Kimmich is likely to be rested due to a minor ankle issue. Nico Schlotterbeck returns to the defense while Benjamin Henrichs could step in for Kimmich. Julian Nagelsmann is expected to rotate with Leroy Sane, Serge Gnabry, Felix Nmecha and Alexander Nubel in contention to start.
Hungary welcomes back Attila Fiola from suspension who is likely replacing Botond Balogh in defense. Endre Botka and Bendeguz Bolla are eying the right wingback role while Zsolt Nagy should continue on the left as Milos Kerkez remains sidelined with a knee injury. Marco Rossi’s lineup is otherwise expected to stay largely unchanged.
Hungary possible lineup: Dibusz; Fiola, Orban, Dardai; Bolla, A. Nagy, Schafer, Z. Nagy; Szoboszlai, Csoboth; Varga
Germany possible lineup: Nubel; Henrichs, Koch, Schlotterbeck, Gosens; Andrich, Nmecha; Gnabry, Brandt, Sane; Kleindienst
