Germany welcome Armenia to Stuttgart on Sunday night for a 2022 World Cup qualifier in Group J.

Life under Hansi Flick began with a solid 2-0 win over Liechtenstein for Germany last week. The result moved Die Mannschaft up to second place in Group J on nine points from four games. Another victory on Sunday will see them go top of the table, at Armenia’s expense.

A goalless draw at North Macedonia last week ended Armenia’s 100% record in Group J. While still on top of the table, Joaquin Caparros’ side must avoid defeat in Stuttgart to preserve their automatic World Cup qualification spot.

Let’s have a look at the form of both sides and the stats from their previous encounters to come up with a reasonable betting prediction.
