The final of the Under-21 European Championships should be a cracker tonight as holders England go up against in-form Germany.
The Three Lions took a while to get going, winning just one of their group games as they stumbled into the knockout stages, but have since impressed with wins over Spain and the Netherlands.
Now they face their biggest challenge yet against a German side who have won every game so far, including a 2-1 victory over the English in their final group game.

England Under-21s vs Germany Under-21s top betting tips
The Germans haven't put a wrong so far and turned in a brilliant display in their semi-final as they battered the French 3-0. Having already beaten Lee Carsley's side in the group stage, and with a weakened team as they rested some big hitters, they're slight favourites for the showpiece.
BoyleSports have Germany at 4/5 to lift the trophy, although England have picked up form in the knockout stages and are 10/11 in the same market.
If you want to boost the odds, backing the Germans to win in 90 minutes takes you to 13/10 but I wouldn't be surprised if this one went to extra-time and the draw at 90 minutes pays 12/5.
Stuttgart striker Nick Woltemade has lit up the tournament and is top scorer scorer with six strikes so far. He's 6/5 at BoyleSports for another goal in the final and that also looks decent value.
Palmerias vs Botafogo
The knockout stages of the Club World Cup get underway tonight and first up is an all-Brazilian clash between Palmeiras and Botafogo.
Teams from Brazil have impressed so far at the tournament, with all four reaching the last 16, but there hasn't been much samba soccer on display.
Botafogo progressed by grinding out a 1-0 win over PSG then shutting up shut to avoid a three-goal defeat against Atletico Madrid, eventually losing just 1-0.
Palmeiras have been a little bit more entertaining but they also played out a dreary 0-0 draw with Porto and kept another clean sheet in a 2-0 win over Al Ahly of Egypt.
So the bookies are banking on this game being pretty dull, with under 2.5 goals just 1/2 at BoyleSports while betting against BTTS only takes you to 8/11.
Familiarity breeds contempt so the best option for punters might be backing a busy day for the ref. Over 5.5 cards pays 21/20 at Unibet, who also price a sending-off at 29/10. For a long odds punt, backing both sides to pick up a red pays 28/1.
BoyleSports have prices on certain players going into the book and Palmeiras skipper Gustavo Gomez is 8/5 for his second card of the tournament.
Benfica v Chelsea
Benfica upset the odds to top Group C ahead of Bayern Munich but that has earned them a tougher last-16 tie as they take on Chelsea instead of Flamengo.
The Blues had a mad six-minute spell that cost them against Flamengo as they conceded two goals and had Nicolas Jackson sent off. But Enzo Maresca's side have otherwise looked pretty decent so far and they eased to a 3-0 win over Esperance de Tunis last time out.
BoyleSports make the Premier League side 8/15 hot favourites to reach the semi-finals but the odds increase to 21/20 if you back them to win in 90 minutes.
Benfica's games have been pretty entertaining so far and they scored nine times in the group stage, albeit six of those goals came against minnows Auckland.
Chelsea have kept two clean sheets so far but their defence still doesn't convince me and they conceded three times against Flamengo. That makes me think combining BTTS and over 2.5 goals could pay off tonight at 13/10 with BoyleSports.
Veteran winger Angel Di Maria has scored three times for Benfica at this tournament, with all of those goals coming from the spot. He's a tempting 21/20 at Unibet just to have an effort on target tonight.
