Costa Rica vs Germany World Cup time, live stream, TV channel, lineups, odds for FIFA Qatar 2022 clash

Germany have a lifeline in their push to reach the 2022 World Cup last 16 as Hansi Flick’s side face Costa Rica in their final Group E game.

Niclas Fullkrug’s late goal sealed a dramatic 1-1 draw with Spain last time out and the four-time winners will be confident of securing a victory against Los Ticos.

Costa Rica caused a shock by beating Japan 1-0, but a win for Germany in this game may still not be enough to seal a knockout spot, as Spain face the Samurai Blue in the other fixture.

The 2014 World Cup winners must take all three points in this game and hope Japan do not beat Spain.

Costa Rica vs Germany lineups

Luis Fernando Suarez will likely stick with mostly the same side who won against Japan with key striker Anthony Contreras shaking off a minor injury. However, left-back Francisco Calvo is suspended.

Costa Rica projected starting lineup (3-4-3, right to left): 1-Navas — 6-Duarte, 19-Waston, 22-Matarrita — 4-Fuller, 5-Borges, 17-Tejeda, 8-Oviedo — 13-Torres, 7-Contreras, 12-Campbell

After his goal off the bench against Spain, Fullkrug could come into the starting lineup, with Germany’s first-choice forward line struggling for goals so far in Qatar.

Flick may also look to refresh his back line with Lukas Klostermann a possible starter in defence in place of Thilo Kehrer.

Germany projected starting lineup (4-2-3-1, right to left): 1-Neuer — 15-Sule, 16-Klostermann, 2-Rudiger, 3-Raum — 6-Kimmich, 8-Goretzka — 10-Gnabry, 21-Gundogan, 14-Musiala — 9-Fullkrug

Costa Rica vs Germany odds, prediction

Despite their unexpected win over Japan, Costa Rica are not expected to spring an upset against Germany as Flick’s charges try to recover and reach the last 16.

Victory for Germany is all Flick and his players can control in this game as they look for Spain to do them a favour against Japan.
