Nonetheless, they are on a three-game winning streak at home in the competition and will look to build on that record.
Ifet Đakovac will miss the games against Germany and Hungary due to an injury while Amar Dedić is a doubt. Nail Omerović and Enver Kulašin are the two players who can make their debut in the ongoing international break.
Die Mannschaft have enjoyed an unbeaten start to their campaign, scoring seven goals in two games, and will look to continue their goalscoring form here. Interestingly, they have registered just one win in their eight away games in the Nations League, with five games ending in draws.
Julian Nagelsmann will be without the services of Jamal Musiala due to an injury. Kai Havertz, David Raum, Robin Koch, and Benjamin Henrichs also dropped out with injuries.
