Germany vs England 2010 World Cup Odds & Predictions: In order to give American readers an idea of how big today's FIFA World Cup soccer match is in the minds of British and Germans, would be to compare it to our college football rivalries between Michigan and Ohio State or Texas and Oklahoma. These two sides, fans and players, couldn't have been more excited than to have drawn each other in this knockout round.
England and Germany supporters will be devestated if they fail to make the next round and will have to share a continent with the victors until the two sides meet again and no telling when that will be.
The two European giants could not have foreseen crossing paths so early in the competition, but England’s second-place finish in Group C denied them a supposedly more straightforward route. Neither side have been at their best so far and both had to roll up their sleeves to advance, though Germany look to have successfully integrated fresh young talent from last year’s European Under-21 Championship-winning team. For England, coach Fabio Capello has slightly relaxed his usual disciplined approach but will again look to his senior players to deliver victory. No longer gripped by the fear of falling at the group stage, the two contenders are now free to serve up a feast of drama and tension, with one of Europe’s biggest names falling by the wayside at the final whistle.
If looking for a good bet, from this writers perspective anyway, take the Germans. They just look like a better team and it showed in group stage where England struggled and was actually fortunate for the opportunity to advance.
