Germany coach Joachim Löw were unable to call up the likes of Leroy Sané, Thilo Kehrer and Julian Draxler due to injuries and will also have to manage without Leon Goretzka who is suffering from a thigh problem.
Speaking at a press conference on Thursday, Löw made it clear that Manuel Neuer and Serge Gnabry will definitely start and suggested that either Timo Werner or Julian Brandt could replace Leroy Sané in the line-up.
Löw also said Germany will "keep playing with three strikers who will be looking to make runs in behind" and that 'Die Mannschaft' could either line up in a 4-3-3 or 5-2-3 system.
Here's the German line-up we expect to see:
Manuel Neuer
Matthias Ginter
Niklas Süle
Jonathan Tah
Lukas Klostermann
Joshua Kimmich
Toni Kroos
Nico Schulz
Serge Gnabry
Timo Werner
Marco Reus
