Jamal Musiala is out for Germany — index 6.9, against 9.5 for the best cover we hold at his position. Well covered.
Kai Havertz is out for Germany — index 8.3, against 7.4 for the best cover we hold at his position. Noticeable.
Serbia lean hardest on Filip Kostic (7.2), Andrija Zivkovic (7.2), Srdjan Babic (7.2) on our Player Index — how much of the side's football each man accounts for, out of 10. It measures involvement and cover, not performance.
The projected score for this one is Germany 2 - 0 Serbia, a home win by 2 with 2 goals in it — short of the 2.5 line.
The read: Germany at 1.24 is short enough that the value, if there is any, sits on the handicap or in the goals market rather than the outright.
