 Germany vs Austria

Germany are leading Group C with a five point advantage ahead of Austria, Sweden and Ireland, could make a big step towards the World Cup by beating Austria and winning at the Faeroe Islands following Tuesday. Coach Joachim Löw has a high-class squad available, but in the recent games a serious problem in his defence appeared. Germany scored 15 goals in the last four games, but though they have a world-class keeper in Manuel Neuer, they conceded nine goals in this four games, three in the last friendly against Paraguay that finished 3:3 at home. Therefore Löw will probably play with Jerome Boateng as central defender instead of Mertesacker. In defensive midfield Schweinsteiger and Gündogan are injured, also Götze and Podolski can't play.

Austria couldn't qualify for a World Cup since 1998, but now they have a decent chance to at least make it to the play-offs. For them the match against Ireland four days later is the more important, as they are equal on points with Ireland and Sweden, but they won't come to Germany just to lose. They actually had looked very well in the qualifier at home against Germany, were unlucky to lose this match 1:2 one year ago. Austrian's Swiss coach Marcel Koller plays an offensively-minded aggressive game, already gained a 2:2 in Ireland and could beat Sweden 2:1 at home recently. Ten players of his squad earn their money at German clubs, midfielder Baumgartlinger (Mainz) will be suspended on Friday.
