Scotland vs Hungary: Prediction, kick-off time, team news, h2h, odds
The Scots, who have never reached the knockout stage of a major tournament, are unlikely to go through in second place in Group A.
For that to happen, they would need to beat Hungary, hope Germany beat Switzerland then and hope for a goal-difference swing of seven goals.
More feasible is snatching a place as one of the four best third-placed teams.
A win in Stuttgart – and tally of four points – should prove enough to do that.
Here’s all you need to know…
Date, kick-off time and venue
Scotland vs Hungary is scheduled for an 8pm BST kick-off on Sunday June 23, 2024.

Marco Rossi made two changes for Hungary’s defeat on Wednesday and came through without any fresh injuries.
Further adjustments in defence are unlikely despite the errors for Germany’s opening goal and the Magyars should persist with their 5-2-3 shape.
Scotland vs Hungary prediction
Hungary did look dangerous going forward at times against the Germans, while the Scots will miss Tierney.
