Tips for match Germany — Scotland

Here we are, waiting for the start of Euro 2024, the hosts of the tournament, the German national team, will play against the Scottish national team in the first match. Everyone expects completely different results from the two teams in the tournament, while Germany is expected to reach at least the final, for Scotland, simply getting out of the group will be a success.

If the odds for the Germans to win weren't so low (only 1.29), then you could safely bet on their victory in the match, but anything can happen in football, so such a risk is clearly not justified. But a bet on TB 2.5 looks much better and we will explain why:

The Scottish national team has played in 5 out of 7 matches with a total of over 2.5, and in the last 10 games, only the teams of Cyprus and Gibraltar have failed to score against them (which is not surprising at all). Although a friendly match before the Euro doesn't give much information, when you play 2-2 with Finland, this will only be further confirmation of problems with the defense. The captain of the team and the best player of Scotland, Andy Robertson, is too much carried away by the attack and often loses his position, and the Germans have enough players who can take advantage of this.

The German national team is simply obliged to show all their strength in the first match in front of their home stands, the game with the Scots is an excellent chance to prove themselves. Of course, it is worth considering that Havertz will most likely play center forward in the first match, for whom this is not the best position, I would have said earlier, but ... the season at Arsenal showed that Kai has gained excellent form and can play in any position. Unless, of course, the coach of the German national team decides to joke again and put him on the flank of defense, as he did in the friendly game. But will Germany be able to keep their goal clean? I doubt it, the Scots are too charged up for every match, there is McTominay, who can score from any position and use any chance, and the defender in goal, whose last name is Neuer, likes to invent problems for himself.
