The Allianz Arena will host an exciting UEFA Nations League match on Wednesday, 4 June 2025, as Germany face Portugal in the semi-finals.
Germany have historically dominated this rivalry, winning all three competitive encounters, including their last match by a two-goal margin. At home, Germany remain formidable, unbeaten in their last 10 matches and winning 85% of games when leading at half time. Conversely, Portugal's away form has been inconsistent, averaging 1.17 goals per game and struggling against top-tier teams like Germany.
Key players will likely influence the match's outcome. For Germany, Joshua Kimmich will provide the leadership and organisation needed, while Jamal Musiala's attacking prowess should once again be on show, as Die Mannschaft look to extend their run of scoring in 14 consecutive games. On the Portuguese side, the ageing Cristiano Ronaldo continues to hang around the camp, but that shouldn't outshine the plethora of gems they have, in the form of Francisco Trincao, Vitinha, João Neves, the list goes on. Germany's home scoring average of 3.38 goals per game will prove a challenge to Portugal's defence as they attempt to maintain their unbeaten Nations League record.
As the stakes rise, the question remains whether Germany will extend their dominance or if Portugal will break their losing streak against Nagelsmann's side. Beyond the rivalry, this match holds significant implications for advancing to the UEFA Nations League final. The Allianz Arena is set to witness a thrilling encounter that could redefine this historic competition.
