Germany vs. Scotland prediction

• Score prediction: Germany 2-0 Scotland

While Scotland may approach Friday’s opener with a carefree attitude, Germany will feel the weight of expectation. They’ve struggled under pressure in recent tournaments, but with home advantage, they are keen to make a strong start.

Given their recent wins over France and the Netherlands, Germany should edge out an out-of-sorts Scotland side.
