Sigurdsson said that he is going to ask for full dedication from the very start today and that his team will go full throttle. The win is a sure thing, but Germany are in high spirits and Sigurdsson doesn't want to jeopardize that with a bad performance against the Saudis. There will be some reshuffling for sure, but maybe not in the beginning. Regardless of that, I think the difference in quality is so great that Germany can cover this without any problems. Even if substitutes are to play, they will be extremely motiavted to and we saw how that be yesterday in the Croatia-Bosnia game. On the other hand, Saudi Arabia might not be very motivated following their previous performances. They lost all four game convincingly, covering this handicap only against Argentina after the bad first half performance on the Argentinean part that resulted in 4-5 fast breaks for the Saudis. They were 8 goals down to Russia in the end, 11 and 14 against Poland and Denmark. Germany were very efficient even against top European teams and the Saudis will probably not be able to stop them. I already talked about their limitations on the offensive end. That could leave Germany with a lot of chances for fast breaks. I expect Germany to be very motivated and I'm sure that who ever steps out on the court today will do their best to keep the spirits high. They could be more relaxed later on in he game, but the total handicap is a very good option, with the possibility of the Saudi game completely falling apart in the end.

Weinhold scored 9 to Poland, 2 to Russia, 8 to Denmark, and 3 to Argentina so far, that's 5.5 per game. Still, today's match is a special one, it's easier, and I think that Weinhold is one of the players who'll get less time on court. Sigurdsson announced rotations, and let the players used the most so far get some rest, which includes Weinhold. Muller got about 20 minutes on that position, Schongarth almost nothing, so I expect the two of them to come up today. The Germans can win this match with half their strength invested, and it's possible that Weinhold won't play at all, and even if he does, I doubt he'll play for more than 15 minutes, so he can hardly score 4 or more in that period.
