Germany suffered a shock loss to North Macedonia in March but bounced back with successive wins over Liechtenstein (2-0), Armenia (6-0) and Iceland (4-0) last month to open a four-point gap atop Group J.
The four-time World Cup champions are thus just two wins away from reaching next year's showpiece in Qatar and head coach Hansi Flick is eager for his team to wrap up qualification this month.
"We have a four-point lead, we want to build on that and qualify as quickly as possible," he said.
Romania sit on 10 points after six matches, a point behind Armenia who currently occupy the play-off position in the group.

An early goal from Serge Gnabry steered Germany to a 1-0 win over Romania in the reverse fixture hosted in Bucharest earlier this year.
