Germany come into this game having shown improved form as of late, with wins in six of their last seven games. That has helped die Mannschaft move to the top of their group, but they will want to pick up a victory against Northern Ireland as they are tied on points with the Netherlands who are certain to cruise to an easy win over minnows Estonia in their final match on Tuesday evening.
Joachim Low's side earned a very comfortable 4-0 win over Belarus in their penultimate match and notably beat Northern Ireland in the reverse fixture, 2-0. Meanwhile, Northern Ireland missed a crucial penalty during their clash with Holland that could have helped them secured second spot. As such they will have to try their luck via the play-offs as they sit in third and even if they manage to beat Germany and the Netherlands suffer a shock loss, it won't be enough to earn an automatic berth.
Germany: Both Kai Havertz and Marco Reus will miss this game due to injuries.
Northern Ireland: Jamal Lewis is out injured, while veteran defender Jonny Evans could miss this game due to illness.
