Germany vs Scotland: Kick-off time, prediction, team news, h2h, odds
Much has been made about the decline of the German national team since winning the World Cup in 2014, but fresh optimism has emerged of late.
Following a dismal World Cup campaign in Qatar in 2022, Die Mannschaft turned to former Bayern Munich coach Julian Nagelsmann.
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.
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.
The Allianz Arena in Munich will host the match.

Germany vs Scotland team news
Germany have picked a squad without Mats Hummels, Leon Goretzka, Timo Werner, Julian Brandt or Serge Gnabry. Kai Havertz was briefly trialled as a left-back but has more recently been playing up front for his country.
Scotland lost Lyndon Dykes to injury in the build-up to the tournament, while Ben Doak also withdrew from the squad. Aaron Hickey, Nathan Patterson and Lewis Ferguson were similarly ruled out, with Tommy Conway and Lewis Morgan handed late call-ups.
Captain Andy Robertson and Lawrence Shankland both pulled out of training on Monday, though only as a precaution and manager Steve Clarke has since confirmed that he has a fully-fit squad for the match.
