Germany opened the tournament with a convincing 7-1 victory over Curacao, continuing an impressive attacking run that has been visible for some time.

Their recent matches have produced plenty of goals, including wins over the USA (2-1), Finland (4-0), Ghana (2-1) and a thrilling 4-3 victory against Switzerland.

Germany have scored 32 goals across their last nine matches and rarely struggle to create chances.

Ivory Coast also arrive in excellent form.

Their opening FIFA World Cup match ended with a 1-0 victory over Ecuador, while recent wins against France, South Korea, Scotland and Ecuador highlight the confidence currently running through the squad.

Ivory Coast have also shown they can create chances against strong opposition, scoring multiple goals against France and South Korea in recent months.

The only previous meeting between these nations finished 2-2 back in 2009.

While that result carries little relevance today, both teams arrive in strong form and with plenty of confidence after winning their opening fixtures.

Germany are deserved favourites, but Ivory Coast have already shown they can compete against quality opposition.

With both teams carrying momentum into this match, another game featuring multiple goals would not be a surprise.
