After two wins in their first two FIFA World Cup qualifiers, Germany are back in action on Wednesday against North Macedonia.
Joachim Loew's side welcome North Macedonia to the MSV Arena in Duisburg, as they look to continue their perfect start to the campaign.
After a comfortable 3-0 win over Iceland in Duisburg last week, Germany had it a little tougher in Bucharest against Romania on Sunday night. Serge Gnabry scored the game's only goal as the Germans ran out 1-0 winners.
Germany have begun well ahead of the European Championships this summer and Loew's farewell after 15 years in charge of the national team.
North Macedonia have won one game and lost one game so far in this qualifying campaign. After losing 3-2 to Romania in their opening game, North Macedonia beat minnows Liechtenstein 5-0 at the weekend.
North Macedonia, like Germany, will be playing at the European Championships this June. They are likely to use this game to see where they stand with respect to some of the best teams on the continent.
