Germany are set to play Hungary at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday in the group stage of UEFA Euro 2020.
Germany come into this game on the back of a 4-2 win over Fernando Santos' Portugal on Saturday. First-half own goals from Manchester City centre-back Ruben Dias and Borussia Dortmund left-back Raphael Guerreiro and second-half goals from Chelsea forward Kai Havertz and Atalanta left-back Robin Gosens sealed the deal for Joachim Low's Germany.
Juventus superstar Cristiano Ronaldo and Liverpool attacker Diogo Jota scored the consolation goals for Portugal.
Hungary, on the other hand, drew 1-1 against Didier Deschamps' France on Saturday. A goal from Fehervar right-back Attila Fiola for Hungary was cancelled out by a strike from Barcelona forward Antoine Griezmann for France.

Germany vs Hungary Prediction
After a disappointing performance against France, Germany bounced back with an emphatic win over Portugal. Atalanta left wing-back Robin Gosens was the star of the show, with his marauding runs causing constant problems to Portugal right-back Nelson Semedo. Germany will be brimming with confidence after such a performance, although questions linger over their backline.
Hungary, on the other hand, have given a good account of themselves at the tournament so far. A spirited performance against Portugal, in which the scoreline did not do credit to their display, was followed by another disciplined game against France, where they deserved a point. Not much was expected from Marco Rossi's side, but they have caused trouble to some of the biggest nations in Europe.
The Group of Death has delivered what it promised. France top the group with 4 points, with Germany and Portugal on 3 each respectively. Hungary have shown that they are no pushovers, and Germany will have to be at their very best. Having said that, Low's men should have enough to win this game.
Prediction: Germany 1-0 Hungary
