But with the German legend nursing a calf injury, he will be rested for this first warm up match against Finland.It will mean Hoffenheim’s Oliver Baumann, who was due to be Germany’s number 1 this summer, will start in the sticks and be given his opportunity to impress.The bulk of Nagelsmann’s 26-man World Cup squad will be present, however Arsenal’s Kai Havertz will arrive next week, with the forward preparing for the Champions League final on Sunday. Finland, who have had a difficult qualifying campaign of their own, placed third behind the Netherlands and Poland, arrive as opponents who will be eager to test themselves against one of the tournament favourites on home soil.Their most recent outing was a 1-1 draw away at Cape Verde in March – that result showcases the kind of inconsistency that has defined their recent international calendar. A damaging 1-0 home defeat to Malta in World Cup qualifying, ultimately proved costly to their own World Cup ambitions.Nagelsmann may give opportunities to some fringe players to stake a claim for inclusion in their World Cup opener against Curucao. The likes of four-capped Jamie Leweling, Nathaniel Brown and youngster Lennart Karl could get serious game time.Germany vs Finland betting tipsDrawing on experienceGermany may well be the overwhelming favourites to land a victory in their penultimate World Cup tune up. But history suggests this fixture is just as likely to end in a stalemate than it is in a German victory. There’s been five draws in the last 10 meetings between the two nations.With Germany without Neuer and front man Havertz, it may take them some time to click into gear. Team chemistry is their to be worked on in matches like this and we could see a six draw in 11 meetings if there’s still some teething problems for Nagelsmann’s side.Undav in the goalsOne time Brighton player Deniz Undav, has sparkled on his return to the Bundesliga with Stuttgart.During the 2025/26 campaign he plundered 25 league goals which helped his club into the Champions League positions.He’s got four goals in seven caps for his national team and offers something very different to fellow forward Havertz and Nick Woltemade.His club form may earn himself a start against Finland. And there’s value in the striker to get on the scoresheet.Germany vs Finland latest oddsFind the latest Germany vs Finland betting odds here, odds courtesy of Spreadex and are subject to change.Germany – 1/10Draw – 8/1Finland – 14/1More international predictionsFind more predictions and betting tips from our expert punters in our match previews on the World Cup, Premier League, Champions League and more!Stay up to date with all the latest World Cup Winner Odds, World Cup Top Goalscorer Odds, World Cup Group Winner Odds and all the best World Cup Betting Offers and Free Bets in our dedicated betting hubCommercial content notice: Taking one of the bookmaker offers featured in this article may result in a payment to talkSPORT. 18+.
