Germany vs Scotland: Euro 2024 kick-off time, prediction, team news, TV, live stream, h2h results, odds today

Following a dismal World Cup campaign in Qatar in 2022, Die Mannschaft turned to former Bayern Munich coach Julian Nagelsmann.

While the turbulence continued somewhat in the early days of his tenure, the Germans are now looking strong again and the 36-year-old has already extended what was supposed to be an interim stay.

The return of Toni Kroos to the international stage before he calls an end to his glittering career no doubt helps, as well as recent victories over rivals France and the Netherlands. Never to be written off, especially on home soil, hope has returned.

Scotland, meanwhile, sailed through the qualification stage, beating Spain and Norway along the way.

The Tartan Army, however, then went on a seven-match winless streak and saw several key players ruled out through various injuries, disrupting their preparations for a second successive European Championship campaign.

Date, kick-off time and venue

Germany vs Scotland is scheduled for an 8pm BST kick-off time tonight on Friday June 14, 2024.
