Who is the referee for Germany vs England
He has officiated a Germany game before, though, overseeing their 1-0 defeat to France last summer.
Recent form
England's defeat in Hungary was their first in 10 matches, stretching back to the Euro 2020 final loss to Italy, so there seems little reason to panic.
However, prior to that they had strung together a run of eight successive wins immediately after their defeat to England at Euro 2020.
Last meeting
England 2-0 Germany (Euro 2020 round of 16, June 29, 2021)
The last time these two sides met it was certainly a memorable one, with England getting a huge win over their old rivals in the Euros.
They left it late in what was a nervy clash at Wembley, but Raheem Sterling broke the deadlock with 15 minutes left to spark wild scenes.
Harry Kane wrapped things up in the dying minutes after Thomas Muller had missed a gilt-edged chance for the Germans.
Germany vs England head-to-head
Germany wins: 15
Draws: 5
England wins: 17
England vs Germany team news
Marcos Reus could return for Germany after missing the draw with Italy due to illness and Karim Adeyemi will be hoping for a chance to make an impression.
Expect Jamal Musiala to be pushing for a place, while Ilkay Gundogan and Kai Havertz will likely get minutes too.
Fikayo Tomori is still a doubt for England but fellow defender Marc Guehi will come into contention after injury. James Justin will miss out after picking up an injury in Budapest.
Raheem Sterling is back after illness too, but Gareth Southgate may keep the changes minimal to give his players the chance to bounce back after the Hungary defeat.
Managers' thoughts
Gareth Southgate takes his side to Munich absolutely relishing the challenge of facing a side he believes the rest of the world aim to emulate.
Germany boss Hansi Flick, meanwhile, appears to have an equal admiration for the England side.
