Our prediction for this Nations League match:
Bilino Polje will be the centre of attention when Bosnia & Herzegovina and Germany lock horns in a highly-anticipated Nations League game. The Balkan Dragons did well to hold Hungary to a goalless draw in their second group match and, no doubt, they would be happy with one point from Friday’s clash as well. As always, a man to watch in the home team will be Fenerbahce attacker Edin Dzeko, who is likely to prove a handful for the opposition back-line. Atalanta defender Sead Kolasinac misses out with injury, while Anel Ahmedhodzic has been left out of the squad.
The Germans, on the other hand, are eager to retain top position in Group 3, but this match will be anything but a walk in the park for Julian Nagelsmann’s team. Borussia M’gladbach forward Tim Kleindienst surprisingly made the cut, while Bayern Munich ace Jamal Musiala has been left out with injury. Anyhow, away win should be considered as Julian Nagelsmann has strength in depth.
Highlighted Player (Leroy Sane):
Leroy Sane began his senior career at Schalke 04. The pacey winger, who is capable of playing as attacking midfielder as well, made his debut for die Knappen on 20 April, 2014 against Stuttgart. Sane came as a substitute in the second half of the match, replacing Max Mayer 13 minutes before the final whistle.
He scored 11 goals in 47 league appearances for Schalke and on 2 August, 2016 he signed a deal with big-spending Premier League side Manchester City. The former Schalke footballer joined the Citizens on a five-year deal for a fee of £37 million. Sane was born in Essen on 11 January, 1996, but his father is Senegalese.
Souleymane Sane used to play for the Senegalese national football team in the past, while his mother Regina Weber was a rhythmic gymnast. Speaking of his international career, Leroy Sane has 6 caps for Germany U21 and he made his debut for the senior team on 13 November, 2015 in a 2-0 loss to France.
