Germany's World Cup future was not looking rosy when we all got out of bed on Sunday morning but the shock Costa Rica victory over Japan coupled with Hansi Flick's side earning a valuable point against Spain has opened up a very realistic path for their progression in the tournament. Luis Fernando Suarez's side aren't done themselves either and a second shock win on the spin could see them move on. We check out and review some of the most popular betting markets heading into this game...
Let's not beat around the bush, Germany are very heavy favourites to win this game and are as short as 1/9 with Betfred to get the three points that they need to give them a great chance of making it through to the Round of 16. The draw is 9/1 with Costa Rica at 22/1.

Latest Costa Rica vs Germany Odds
The reason for such a lopsided market is Costa Rica got an absolute pummelling at the hands of Spain in their opening game. They looked lost and completely overmatched that day and even though they bounced back with a shock win over Japan on Sunday morning, the winner was their only shot on target and in reality, the keeper should be absolutely gutted that he let it in.
Los Ticos are not a very good side and anything other than a defeat would be hugely surprising.
World Cup Betting Odds
Germany were sucker-punched by Japan and a whirlwind few minutes saw them fall in their opener but a decent display against Spain was highlighted by a first World Cup goal for Werder Bremen striker Niklas Fullkrug. He looked to make a real difference and up against a defence such as Costa Rica's, I'd expect him to start and at 4/5 to score anytime is one to plug into your Bet Builders.
I'm a little bit surprised BTTS is only priced up at 5/4. Expecting Costa Rica to muster much in terms of attacking play seems to be a bit of a longshot and if you are thinking like me, that opens up the Germany to win to nil market and that 8/11 is far more enticing than the 1/9 just to win the game.
You can also get 1/2 on Germany to score in both halves and that is a market to consider if you like to bet on shorter prices.
