Germany have been in bad form for about a year now and their last 11 games have only produced three wins and that follows a run of 19 games without defeat. Their UEFA Nations League campaign is almost as bad as their World Cup experience in the summer. They are yet to win a game, have lost the last two and will be relegated unless they beat the Netherlands in their final fixture and will be knocked out before then if the Dutch side get a home win over France on November 16. Germany have at least maintained some decent form at home with only a couple of defeats in the last two years. 

Russia could well replace Germany in League A in the next UEFA Nations League tournament. They lead their group with seven points from three games and are four points clear of Turkey. Over 90 minutes, Russia have only lost one of their last ten games (a World Cup defeat by Uruguay) and have won three of their last four matches since being knocked out of the World Cup on penalties. Away form has seen them win two of their last five including a loss to Austria just before the World Cup. A difficult game to predict and it'll be interesting to see what line-ups are put out by the two countries. Russia have only won one of their last six away friendlies and the tip here is for a Germany win.
