Preview: Georgia vs. Germany

Sports Mole previews the Euro 2016 qualifier between Georgia and Germany.

Germany head into their Euro 2016 qualifying fixture in Georgia looking to remain within three points of leaders Poland.

Their 2-0 defeat to Poland in October, as well as their draw with Republic of Ireland, has left the world champions in a fight for top spot in the group standings.

After resting a number of his star players for Wednesday's 2-2 draw with Australia, coach Joachim Low will make a number of alterations for Sunday's game.

Manuel Neuer, Jerome Boateng, Mats Hummels, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Toni Kroos and Thomas Muller will all return in Tbilisi.

Georgia head into the game on the back of a 2-0 victory over Malta in midweek, but head coach Kakhaber Tskhadadze will know that they face a far greater threat when welcoming their opponents at the weekend.

However, Tskhadadze will take confidence from his team's performances against both Republic of Ireland and Scotland, with one-goal defeats enough to suggest that they can at least be competitive against last summer's World Cup winners.

Germany hold a 100% record in three meetings between the two nations, with the only match in the last 20 years coming in a friendly in Germany in 2006.

Georgia:

Form in Euro 2016 qualifying: LLWL
Form in all competitions: LLLWLW

Possible starting lineup: Loria, Amisulashvili, Navalovski, Kashia, Kverkvelia, Kobakhidze, Kankava, Okriashvili, Makharadze, Mchedlidze, Chanturia

Germany:

Form in Euro 2016 qualifying: WLDW
Form in all competitions: WLDWWD

Possible starting lineup: Neuer, Boateng, Hummels, Howedes, Hector, Khedira, Kroos, Schweinsteiger, Muller, Gotze, Reus

Sports Mole says: 0-4
