Germany vs Scotland Betting Tips, Predictions & Odds

Germany v Scotland Betting Tips

Before placing your wagers on the Euro 2024 curtain raiser, here are some things to bear in mind: 

• Scotland have been weak defensively recently, conceding 14 goals in their last five games, which is uncharacteristic of Steve Clarke’s approach. Don’t bank on them keeping a clean sheet against the attack-minded Germans in this one. 
• Germany have scored exactly two goals in four of their last five games. A 2-0 victory over Scotland could be on the cards in this Group A opener.

This Fixture in History - Germany vs Scotland Head to Head Record

Germany and Scotland have faced each other 17 times. The Germans have eight wins, while Scotland have won four. They have drawn five times. Given the gulf in class between the two nations, this is closer than many would expect. 

As for recent form, Germany have won two of their past five outings, while the Scots haven’t won in their last five games, with three defeats and two draws. Scotland’s recent form has dented aspirations somewhat and removed much of the feel-good factor that has surrounded Steve Clarke’s hard-working team in recent times. 

Germany and Scotland last met in a qualifying match at Hampden Park in September 2015. The Germans secured a 3-2 victory on the night, with goals from Thomas Muller and Ilkay Gundogan. Both will hope to make the UEFA Euro 2024 squad.

Germany Man to Watch: Kai Havertz

Though a fairly divisive figure among English Premier League fans, Kai Havertz is an important player for Germany. As a deep-lying forward, he links the play well and provides a goal threat, while his hard work and combative approach serve his country well in the attacking third. He’s likely to be supported by the attacking flair of Leroy Sane and Jamal Musiala in what will be an enviable forward line at this summer’s tournament.

Scotland Man to Watch: Scott McTominay

Manchester United’s Scott McTominay is Scotland’s most important player. Industrious and able to play in numerous positions, McTominay poses a goal threat, topping the Tartan Army’s scoring charts in qualifying with five goals. In a midfield anchored by Celtic’s captain Callum McGregor, McTominay is permitted to play further forward and will be looking to fire Scotland to victory in Munich.
