Comments and predictions for U21 Germany vs U21 Italy: Tanks rush straight into the semi-finals

Latest information on Germany U21 vs Italy U21 squad

Ahead of the quarter-final, U21 Germany does not have the strongest squad as central midfielder Eric Martel is still recovering from injury and his ability to play is still uncertain. In addition, striker Brajan Gruda - one of the important explosives in the attack - still has to practice separately and is at risk of not recovering in time. On the U21 Italy side, coach Carmine Nunziata also faces a loss when striker Tommaso Baldanzi is almost certainly absent due to not recovering in time. However, both teams still have many quality factors to create a balanced and tactical confrontation.

Latest expected lineup for U21 Germany vs U21 Italy

Latest football commentary on U21 Germany vs U21 Italy

Germany U21 is the team that left the strongest impression in the group stage of the 2025 European U21 Championship. They won all 3 matches in the "group of death" with tough opponents such as England, Czech Republic and Slovenia, and scored 9 goals - the highest number in the tournament (along with Portugal). The 13-match unbeaten streak (11 wins, 2 draws) is clear evidence of the stable performance and effective playing style of the team led by coach Antonio Di Salvo. In particular, Germany U21 has a psychological advantage when they won all 2 recent confrontations with Italy, including a 4-2 victory in November 2022 away.

On the other side, U21 Italy, although not really convincing in the group stage, still maintained an unbeaten record. They drew with Spain and Denmark, won by a minimum margin against Romania and Slovakia, and only lost to the Netherlands. Under the leadership of coach Nunziata, the Azzurri team played with discipline and had good squad depth, but their scoring efficiency was limited and depended a lot on set pieces or individual moments.

In terms of form, cohesion in playing style and effectiveness in attack, U21 Germany is superior. However, U21 Italy is not easy to defeat, especially when they have a solid defense and a typical tight playing style. The match promises to be a tight match, and although U21 Germany is rated higher, the possibility of them winning by a minimal margin is very high.
