Germany will take on Ivory Coast on Saturday evening as both sides look to build on their opening wins at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The Group E fixture kicks off at 9:00pm UK time.
Germany enter the match after a 7-1 victory over Curacao in their first game. Ivory Coast secured a 1-0 win against Ecuador thanks to a 90th-minute goal from Amad Diallo.
Joshua Kimmich highlighted the threat posed by Ivory Coast attackers, particularly Yan Diomande. "His dribbling is exceptional," Kimmich said. Diomande praised Germany's structure and individual quality, naming Florian Wirtz as a key danger.
Predicted line-ups show Germany fielding Manuel Neuer in goal and Ivory Coast starting with Y. Fofana at the back. The match will be shown live on ITV1 and STV in the UK.
