JAKARTA - The exciting party will be presented at the Khalifa International Stadium, Wednesday, November 23, at 20.00 WIB. Favorites to win, Germany, will face one of the dark horses from Asia, Japan, in the inaugural match of Group E of the 2022 World Cup.

On paper, Germany is more favored. However, Japan could create a surprise. With the combination of young players and experience, Japan is believed to have the potential to be a stumbling block for Germany who wants to win three points in the first pepper.

Germany may put Kai Havertz up front. However, his position could be threatened by a young player from Borsia Dortmund, Youssoufa Moukoko, whose performance has recently become a concern.

Unfortunately, senior player Thomas Muller is reportedly still having problems with injury. So it could be restated.

However, Germany coach Hansi Flick will not bother because Serge Gnarbry, Jamal Musiala and Leroy Sane still have to support Havertz or Moukoko.

Good news for Flick, Manuel Neuer and Antonio Rudiger are ready. Both players are certainly highly expected to be able to guard the German defense against the Japanese national team which relies on a number of young players.

In the back sector, Arsenal's Takehiro Tomiyasu will be the mainstay of Japan coach, Hajime Moriyasu.

He will coordinate with senior players Yuto Nagatomo and also Maya Yohanida. Both have a lot of experience playing in Europe. So it can provide a sense of security to the Blue Samurai team goalkeeper in the match later.

The match is predicted to be fierce. However, Germany remains favorite with victory. The reason is, Germany is a dangerous unit under Hansi Flick and almost unstoppable if it is in their best form.

Forecast of line-up for Germany vs Japan:

Germany (4-2-3-1): Neuer; Kehrer, Sule, Rudiger, Raum; Kimmich, Gundogan; Gnabry, Musiala, Sane; Harvertz

Japan (4-3-3): Gonda; Sakai, Tomiyasu, Yoshida, Nagatomo; Shibasaki, Endo, Kamada; Ito, Asano, Minamino
