It goes without saying that the Germans are the significant favourites here to get the victory but the United States have shown that they can tangle with the best in the world and get a result on their day. 

It took a last gasp strike from Portugal to keep their hopes alive in this match and it broke the hearts of American fans everywhere despite not really affecting their chances too much. The end result remains the same - if the United States and Germany draw the match then they will both progress with Germany as Group winner and the United States as runners up. 

As it currently stands, the Germans can be backed at a very slim price of 1.66 while the United States are trading at a hefty 8.0 price tag. The real crux is the draw wager and the fact that it trades at a mere 3.10 tells you everything you need to know. Expect that to be a very popular wager today and a parlay of a draw here and Portugal winning their match against Ghana will likely be one of the biggest wagers of the day. 

With both teams able to progress with the draw, you are likely to see a fairly tame opening 45 minutes but the fact that the United States and their swashbuckling style usually wind up scoring early (they struck within two minutes of their first match) means that this one could get very complicated very quickly.

Watch out for Clint Dempsey, the American talisman, getting behind the German defense early on in the fixture. If you see him able to trouble the resolute German backline then the United States has every chance to win this match-up.
