Germany vs Argentina

Germany has never beaten a "biggie" nation since year 2000, with home ground advantage and a team in form .... a very good chance to start one ...

Ballack who had 10 shots on goal against sweden, of which 5 of them are on targets .... is looking for his first goal .... Riquelme who has been stringing passes to the front 2 and for the team ... is looking for his first goal as well

Klose and Crespo will wish to add to their goals tally for the top scorer award ... Young Podolski looks good against sweden ... may rise to the occasion

Pekerman should be letting Messi and Tevez had a run later in the game ...

No clear edge on this one except German's home ground advantage
