Germany will warm up for their resumption of their Nation League campaign with a friendly tie against the Czech Republic. Live Soccer TV's match preview provides global broadcast listings, team news as well as key match facts for Germany vs. Czech Republic.

Preview: Germany vs Czech Republic

Germany have been in lousy form lately, with just one win from their last five matches since international matches kicked off two months ago, and Joachim Low will be hoping that a largely changed side will be able to kick-start a positive run as they prepare to take on the Czech Republic in a friendly tie. Die Mannschaft have drawn the other four of their five games, including a three-all stalemate with Turkey in a recent friendly, and as things stand, have a bit of work to do if they want to win Group 4 in the Nations League.

Spain have managed to stay a point ahead, despite their loss to Ukraine. Germany find themselves currently level with Ukraine on points ahead of their showdown with the Eastern Europeans this weekend - meaning that they must win that game in order to ensure they have a good shot at knocking Spain back down into second place when they square off against them on the final matchday.

Germany's form in the inaugural Nations League campaign left much to be desired, and in fact, they were only saved from a rather embarrassing relegation to League B by UEFA re-formatting the tournament. Despite the wealth of talent at their disposal, things haven't gone right for the 2014 World Cup winners for some time, and pressure is indeed mounting on Low to get things right as the year comes to a close. They'll have a couple of games to get things back on track, and this upcoming friendly with the Czech Republic will certainly present a great opportunity to set the right tone.

As for the visitors, they will have to win their next two Nations League games if they want to have any shot of being promoted to League A, but with Scotland sitting two points clear, it's unlikely that will happen. 

Team news: Germany vs Czech Republic

Germany: Joachim Low has opted to bring in some new faces into his squad, including the likes of Oliver Baumann, Philipp Max, Felix Uduokhai and Bote Baku. By contrast, experienced players like Timo Werner, Manuel Neuer, Matthias Ginter, Serge Gnabry, Leon Goretzka, Leroy Sane, and Toni Kroos have all been given a rest for this friendly in order to keep them fresh ahead of the team's upcoming games - especially the clash with Spain. 

In addition, Bayern's Joshua Kimmich is out until next year following a knee injury sustained during his team's recent Klassiker win over Dortmund, while Marco Reus and Marc-Andre Ter Stegen have only just recovered from injuries so won't be involved here, either. Chelsea's Kai Havertz is out with COVID-19 and thus wasn't called up for international duty.

Czech Republic: The visitors have been hit hard by COVID-19 and injuries, with Jan Boril, Ondrej Kudela, Lukas Provod, Filip Nguyen and Michael Rabusic looking set to miss out due to the virus while Adam Hlozek, Ondrej Celustka and Patrik Schick are all still on the treatment table.
