Wales U19 vs Germany U19 prediction 01.07.2026 | UEFA Euro U19

Wales U19 prepares for this one on the back of a devastating opening matchday defeat in front of their home crowd.

The Young Dragons suffered a bruising 0–7 loss against favorites Spain, instantly putting them under massive pressure in Group A. With manager Chris Gunter’s men now searching for answers, the squad faces a steep uphill battle to reverse their poor form.

That heavy tournament-opening loss extended their current run to three defeats in their last two outings, highlighting deep defensive vulnerabilities that must be addressed immediately.

To spark an upset, the hosts will rely heavily on forward Cruz Allen, who enters as their main focal point after racking up three goals and two assists during the elite qualifying round.

However, their tactical setup remains compromised by key absentees in central midfield, forcing structural adjustments as they fight to keep their tournament hopes alive.

Germany U19 enters this one on the back of an exhilarating opening matchday victory to launch their tournament campaign in style.

The DFB youth team outlasted Denmark U19 in a thrilling 4–3 goal-fest at Central Park Denbigh, instantly positioning themselves as primary contenders alongside Spain in Group A.

With manager Christian Wörns’ men displaying immense clinical edge going forward, the squad has successfully extended their impressive unbeaten streak to four consecutive international matches.

To maintain this momentum, the team will heavily rely on star forward Otto Stange, who enters this fixture in scorching form after firing home two vital goals during the opening match victory.

However, a few noticeable defensive absentees due to recent form have forced structural adjustments at the back, meaning the technical staff must tighten up their backline to avoid conceding heavily as they did late in their previous fixture.
