England will need to be at their best to beat Germany, who are one of the strongest teams in the world. However, the team has a good record against their old rivals, and will be confident of getting a result.
The match against Germany will be a tough test for England, but it is one that they will be determined to pass.
The team will be looking to bounce back from their defeat to the Netherlands and put themselves back in contention for a place in the Nations League finals.
