Match Preview

The reigning Olympic champions will be hoping to continue their push for a second straight gold medal at the event this weekend, as Canada comes up against Germany. It was a dramatic opening round to the tournament for the Olympic champions, as they survived a six-point deduction to finish second in the Group A standings.

Without that deduction, Canada would have comfortably finished top of the standings after winning all three of their matches in the opening round. That includes victories over Colombia and France in the final two rounds, which secured their progression through to the next round. At the prices, there is certainly value to side with Canada this weekend.

The European nation needed to settle for second in the Group B standings after finishing three points behind the United States. Their only defeat was suffered against the USA, with Germany claiming their victories against Australia and Zambia. Overall, they looked excellent in the final third after netting eight goals in three matches, and that could see them cause issues for Canada this weekend.

Canada vs Germany Picks

The odds are somewhat surprising for this showdown. Canada look to be the value play after winning each of their three group stage matches, and have grown into the competition despite their six-point deduction in the group stage.
