Germany World Cup History:

Number of Previous World Cup Appearances: 16

Last Appearance: 2006

Best Finish: Champions (1990/1974/1954)

All-Time World Cup Record: 55-18-19

Odds:

According to oddsmakers from online sports book SPORTSBETTING.com,
Germany has been given 14/1 odds to win the World Cup.

Spain is the favorite coming in with odds of 4/1.

2010 World Cup Qualifying:

Germany qualified for the World Cup by winning its UEFA Group 4 qualifying group.
Germany was paired with a weaker field and it went 8-0-2 to score 26 points, besting second-place

Russia by four points.

Germany scored 26 goals and allowed just five in the 10 games. The two ties were both against

Finland.

Betting Analysis:

Germany didn’t have any trouble qualifying as it had three of the top five scorers in its group, led by Miroslav Klose, who had seven goals, while Lukas Podolski had six. For the World Cup,
Germany is in Group D with
Australia,
Serbia, and

Ghana.

Germany is clearly the favorite to win its group and the key from that point on will be in goal keeping. The Germans have the ability to score, but the games where it has slipped up came in allowing too many goals. In World Cup play, goal tending is usually the key to a team’s success, and for that reason, we would stay shy of

Germany.
