Liechtenstein are set to play Germany at the Kybunpark on Thursday for a FIFA World Cup qualifying game.
Liechtenstein come into this game on the back of a 5-1 loss to Hakan Ericson's the Faroe Islands. Braces from NSI Runavik striker Klaemint Olsen and Helsingborgs midfielder Brandur Hendriksson Olsen and a second-half penalty from Vejle Boldklub defender Viljormur Davidsen ensured victory for the Faroe Islands. Eschen/Mauren defender Maximilian Goppel scored the consolation goal for Liechtenstein.
Germany, on the other hand, lost 2-0 to Gareth Southgate's England in the Round of 16 of UEFA Euro 2020. Second-half goals from Manchester City forward Raheem Sterling and Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane sealed the deal for England.
Liechtenstein vs Germany Head-to-Head
In four head-to-head encounters between the two sides, Germany have won all four games.
The two countries last faced each other way back in 2009, with Germany beating Liechtenstein 4-0. Goals from midfielders Michael Ballack and Bastian Schweinsteiger, left-back Marcell Jansen and striker Lukas Podolski secured the win for Germany.
