Germany vs. Scotland Euro 2024: TV channel, live stream, start time and how to watch the match from India | Sporting News India

Fans will gather at the Allianz Arena in Munich this Friday for the much-anticipated Euro 2024 opener. Hosts Germany will face Scotland in Group A.

For Germany, this home tournament is a golden chance to bounce back from recent failures. Coach Julian Nagelsmann, returning to the Allianz Arena, aims to start strong. Germany hasn’t dazzled in recent tournaments, but with a mix of young talents and experienced players, they are hopeful.

Germany’s friendly matches in 2024 have been promising, with wins against France and the Netherlands, a draw with Ukraine, and a narrow win over Greece. They are favorites to top a group that includes Hungary and Switzerland.

Scotland, on the other hand, dreams of reaching the knockout stages for the first time. They had a strong start in Euro 2024 qualifying, even beating Spain, but their form dipped towards the end. They have just one win in their last nine matches.

Germany have the upper hand historically, and Friday’s match is expected to reflect that.

The Sporting News brings you all the details for this match regarding where to watch in India.

Germany vs. Scotland prediction

• Score prediction: Germany 2-0 Scotland

Scotland look well placed to end their frustrating record of missing out on the knockout stages with the possibility of a third place finish being enough to see them through to the Round of 16.

However, it’s difficult to see past a solid win for the home side, despite their lack of competitive action since the 2022 World Cup. Nagelsmann is under pressure to go far in the tournament and his team is packed with Bundesliga talent.
