⚽ Football Bet of the Day
Germany Women vs Poland Women
Steve Harrington; Sports journalist at BettingTips4You
Lea Schuller to score 2 or more goals | |
12/5 - odds when tipped |  |
Reasoning Germany’s number nine is in red-hot form, and Poland’s defence is unlikely to keep her quiet. With constant service from wide areas and dominance in attack expected, Lea Schuller is primed to bag multiple goals in a game that should heavily favour the tournament favourites. | |
🧮 Quickfire Stats
- Lea Schuller has scored 5 goals in her last 3 games for club and country.
- Germany Women have scored 7 goals against Poland in their last two meetings.
- Poland are appearing in their first major tournament and conceded in every qualifying match.
Rationale:
Germany Women step into their UEFA Women’s Euro 2025 campaign against debutants Poland, and our expert Herrin Kendrick has pinpointed an excellent betting opportunity from this lopsided Group A encounter. The standout selection? Lea Schuller to score at least twice.
Few players arrive in Switzerland in better goalscoring form than Lea Schuller. The Bayern Munich striker has found the net five times in her last three appearances across both domestic and international fixtures, and her confidence in front of goal is palpable. She will spearhead a German frontline that has routinely dominated Poland in past meetings — including a 4-1 and 3-1 win during qualifying, in which Schuller also made her presence felt.
Germany are not only eight-time European champions, but they’re also coming off five straight victories, having comfortably topped their Nations League group. Their attacking play has been ruthless and relentless, and with Schuller leading the line, Christian Wuck’s side will fancy their chances of racking up a strong scoreline in St. Gallen.
Poland, on the other hand, while on an impressive 11-match unbeaten streak, have achieved that record mostly against weaker opposition. Their journey to the finals came via the playoffs, and while victories over Austria and Romania are commendable, facing the third-ranked team in the world is a different beast altogether.
Defensively, Poland remain vulnerable. They conceded seven goals across their two qualifiers against Germany last year, and their back line will now have to cope with Schuller’s intelligent movement, aerial threat, and finishing ability.
The wide support from Klara Buhl and Jule Brand provides ample service from the flanks, while Laura Freigang’s presence in behind will draw defenders out of position, leaving Schuller with the kind of spaces she thrives in.
Given the attacking structure around her and Poland’s tendency to allow goals against top-tier sides, Lea Schuller scoring at least twice offers strong value and stands out as the best selection across Friday’s entire footballing schedule.
