Switzerland National Team

The Switzerland national team suffered a second consecutive defeat at the current tournament, losing their last match to Sweden 2:4. Note that this loss was the team's sixth in seven World Junior Championship games in regulation time. Switzerland has the lowest scoring output in the group so far, having scored just three goals, but after Sweden they are the most reliable defensively (6 goals conceded). Alongside Germany, the team has not collected any points at the current tournament and sits fourth in Group A.

• Switzerland scored at least four goals in regulation time in 5 of the last 6 head-to-head World Junior Championship meetings.
• The team conceded at least two goals over 60 minutes in 23 of the previous 24 games at this tournament.
• No more than six goals were scored in regulation time in 7 of the last 9 World Junior Championship matches involving Switzerland.

Germany National Team

The Germany national team lost to Sweden in their last match at the tournament 1:8, with Elias Pul scoring Germany's only goal in the previous game. This is the team's third consecutive defeat at the current World Junior Championship. At this tournament Germany concedes an average of six goals per game; in their group they are the least reliable defensively (18 goals conceded). After four matchdays the team has not collected any points and occupies the last place in their five-team group.

• Germany did not concede more than four goals in regulation time in 5 of their last 7 World Junior Championship games.
• The team lost after three periods in 6 of their previous 8 matches at the World Junior Championship.
• No more than six goals were scored in regulation time in 5 of Germany's last 7 World Junior Championship games.

Switzerland vs Germany: Match Prediction

At the start of the tournament Switzerland had an unlucky draw of opponents, and that largely explains why the team has not yet collected any points. Nevertheless, the upcoming meeting should correct the situation for the visitors. Germany will also be determined to play carefully, since a win in the next match is their only chance to reach the top four, but the level of Switzerland and their reliability should clearly dominate the rival, so the Germans have little chance in our view.

We note that Germany has lost every match at the current World Junior Championship in regulation time. In addition, the team has lost to Switzerland in 4 of the last 6 head-to-head meetings at the tournament. Switzerland were both times close to at least picking up a point while playing at the current WJC, but now we are confident that will not happen.

We expect Switzerland to secure a comfortable win on merit.

Prediction: Switzerland to win
