Tournament Overview
While Germany might encounter some resistance in their first match at the World Cup, we expect any efforts to stop the favourites from conquering three points to be fruitless. Should Japan actually escape with points to their account from the opening match at the World Cup it'll be a massive surprise. Bookmakers expect them to be run over at Khalifa International Stadium on Wednesday, 23 at 14:00 at Khalifa International Stadium.
