Germany and Poland trade tackles in a 2025 UEFA Women's Euro qualifier on Friday (May 31). The hosts are coming off a 3-1 home win over Iceland in April.
All four goals came in the first half. Lea Schuller scored a brace to put the Germans two goals up by the 34th minute before Lena Oberdorf scored in first-half injury time. Hlin Eiriksdottir found the back of the net for the visitors.
Poland, meanwhile, fell to a 3-1 home defeat to Austria. Sarah Puntigam, Lilli Purtscheller and Eileen Campbell scored for the visitors, while Ewelina Kamczyk scored for the Poles.
The defeat left the white and reds at the foot of Group 4 on zero points after two games, while Germany lead the way with six points.

Germany Women vs Poland Women Prediction
Germany have had a barren trophy spell in the last decade, culminating in a shock group-stage elimination at the Women's World Cup last year. They finished runners-up at the last Women's Euro and are the record winners of the tournament with eight titles.
However, DFB-Frauenteam have not won the tournament since 2013. They have made a 100% winning start to the qualifiers and are the overwhelming favourites here. Poland are the heavy underdogs and are unlikely to pose much of a threat in Rostock.
Barring an unlikely upset, there should be only one winner. Expect the hosts to claim maximum points with a comfortable win and a clean sheet.
Prediction: Germany Women 4-0 Poland Women
