For Germany, a successful EURO 2024 Group Stage was just the first milestone in what former Bayern Munich manager Julian Nagelsmann is hoping is a long journey for the tournament.In drawing Denmark for the Round of 16, the German national team should be well-poised to advance, but the Danes have a way of mucking a game up — and if Germany falls victim to that tactic, it could make for a dangerous (and probably boring) contest.Regardless, most are expecting the hosts to make it through to the quarterfinal round, but it might not be easy. Let’s take a look at what is on tap for this edition of the Bavarian Podcast Works — Preview Show:A recap of the results from the Group Stage for both teams.Where Germany stands heading into the knockout rounds.How many starters will be different for Germany given the injury to Antonio Rüdiger and the suspension to Jonathan Tah?Will Niclas Füllkrug get the starting nod?A guess at Julian Nagelsmann’s lineup.A prediction on the match.
