Germany vs. Portugal preview: Team news and predicted lineups
After edging past Italy in the quarter-finals, Germany continue their successful UEFA Nations League campaign on home soil as they host Portugal at the Allianz Arena in Munich on Wednesday. Germany boast a strong recent record against Portugal, having won the last five meetings between the two sides since 2006. The most recent victory came at Euro 2021, when they triumphed 4-2 under then-head coach Hansi Flick.

It's a new team compared to the one from 2021. Both teams have changed. It'll be a completely different game,' he said at a press conference on Monday (via iMiaSanMia). Julian Nagelsmann's side are unbeaten since their painful extra-time Euro 2024 defeat to eventual champions Spain. Portugal, meanwhile, overcame a first-leg quarter-final defeat to Denmark (1-0), responding with a dramatic 3-2 win in the return leg to seal a 5-2 aggregate victory after extra time. Advertisement Germany have received a boost with the return of goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen, who is expected to start after a lengthy injury layoff, with Nagelsmann having reaffirmed his status as the team's No. 1. Meanwhile, youngsters Tom Bischof and Nick Woltemade have received their first senior call-ups. With both Kai Havertz and Tim Kleindienst sidelined, Woltemade could even be handed a starting role in attack. Injuries have ravaged the German squad. In addition to Havertz and Kleindienst, Jamal Musiala, Antonio Rüdiger, and Nico Schlotterbeck are all unavailable. Angelo Stiller, Nadiem Amiri, and Jonathan Burkardt have also pulled out after their initial call-ups, adding to Germany's growing injury list. Advertisement 'We're trying to focus on the players who are here,' said Kimmich. 'Of course it's bitter and annoying that there are so many injuries, but there's no point in talking about that because the players who are at home won't help us. "We still have a lot of quality and enough good players to win both games," added the captain, who is set to play his 100th game for Germany. Portugal, by contrast, are expected to arrive in Munich with a fully fit squad. Predicted Germany vs. Portugal lineups: Germany (4-2-3-1): ter Stegen – Kimmich, Tah, Anton, Mittelstädt – Pascal Groß, Goretzka – Sané, Wirtz, Gnabry – Woltemade. Portugal (4-2-3-1): Diogo Costa - Dalot, Ruben Dias, Inacio, Nuno Mendes - Joao Neves, Vitinha - Bernardo Silva, Bruno Fernandes, Rafael Leao - Cristiano Ronaldo.

📸 Bayern stars celebrate their title in Ibiza's holiday paradise
This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇩🇪 here. For several days, the planned Ibiza trip of FC Bayern has been attracting a lot of media attention. Are they going? Or are they not? And if so: When exactly are they heading to the Spanish holiday paradise? The answer: They are going. More precisely, they are flying. Yesterday, Sunday, a total of 13 players of the record champion took off in a southerly direction. Among them were Thomas Müller, Manuel Neuer, Harry Kane, and Serge Gnabry. Jetzt also doch Ibiza! 13 @FCBayern-Stars flogen am Sonntagvormittag von München los auf die Balearen-Insel – mit dabei @Manuel_Neuer @esmuellert_ #Kane #Goretzka @SergeGnabry #Guerreiro #Urbig #Pavlovic #Stanisic #Dier #Upamecano #Laimer und #Coman #FCBayern #FCB — BILD FC Bayern (@BILD_Bayern) May 11, 2025 And apparently, the freshly crowned champions experienced an exciting first party night. This is indicated by numerous pictures. Manuel Neuer, who, according to rumors, had never been seen without his goalkeeper gloves before, was diligently raising his advertising arm on the dance floor. The risk of another injury can also be ruled out: Skiing is rarely done on Ibiza, fortunately.

Where are the sunburn and henna tattoo? Thomas Müller, on the other hand, took a break from his Bavarian evening attire and was almost as casual as Konrad Laimer. And the club legend also refrained from another funeral joke like at his farewell! — Bayern & Germany (@iMiaSanMia) May 12, 2025 Serge Gnabry posed relaxed with his teammates!

Who knows: Maybe he was rejected at the entrance. It could have come to the epic battle "goalkeeper vs. doorman". 13 players made the trip to Ibiza this afternoon: Neuer, Müller, Kane, Goretzka, Gnabry, Guerreiro, Urbig, Pavlović, Stanišić, Dier, Upamecano, Coman and Laimer. Team manager Samuel Geiler travelled with them [📸 @BILD] — Bayern & Germany (@iMiaSanMia) May 11, 2025 Finally, the question remains: Why didn't Joshua Kimmich come along? Does the midfielder's sporting ambition predominate even in the last week of the season? 📸 Alexander Hassenstein - 2025 Getty Images
