World Cup – Armenia vs Germany: Betting Preview

Germany visit Armenia on Sunday night hoping to wrap up a near-flawless World Cup qualifying campaign in perfect fashion.

Die Mannschaft have already secured automatic qualification for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. They have a nine-point lead over North Macedonia at the top of the Group J table with one game to spare.

Armenia, meanwhile, have a slim chance of snatching second place from North Macedonia for a playoff spot. The Mountaineers are currently fourth in the standings on 12 points. Given the three-point gap to second, on top of an inferior goal difference, they need a huge win to stand any chance.

Last time out, more disappointment followed as Macedonia ran out 5-0 winners.

Top goalscorer

Looking at the goalscorer market, it would seem a good idea to side with Timo Werner. He is one of the German players, who is showing decent form on the international stage. He managed to find the back of the net 5 times in his most recent outings. Surely, he will want to add more goals against Armenia.

The hosts will be looking to their main man Henrikh Mkhitaryan to find the net once again in what is a must-win match.
