Scotland and Hungary will decide who will win third place in Group A and secure a shot at continuing their adventure in the 2024 EURO. A victory here would suit either side, while a draw leaves things up in the air for the next phase.
Scotland News
The Tartan Army earned a 1-1 draw against Switzerland, significantly boosting their morale after an opening defeat to Germany. The hosts badly beat them, yet the Scots got back in the saddle against the Swiss crew.
Scotland’s game is characterized by a lack of technical finesse and midfield creativity, but they make up for it with their physical robustness and aggressive approach. Yet, their defense has too many flaws, so it’s not always effective.
Hungary News
Hungary put up a solid fight against Germany. The first goal resulted from a foul, which undoubtedly influenced the game’s course. They managed to rally after that, but Manu Neuer was excellent, denying all of their efforts and leading Die Mannschaft towards victory.
Hungary has now suffered three losses in its last four contests, conceding at least two goals in each of those games. Its defense tends to be slow and struggles against fast attackers, particularly when the opposition’s full-backs like to attack.
Scotland vs. Hungary Head to Head
Scotland has had the upper hand from their most recent encounter with Hungary, winning 1-0 in a 2018 friendly match.
Scotland vs. Hungary Betting Tip
We pick low efficiency here, which would be under 2.5 hits, because of the importance of the game. Scotland’s style of play is already defensive-minded, while on the other hand, Hungary needs to be cautious too, as they haven’t got any room for mistakes. Remember, four of the six best third-placed teams are through to the knockout stage.
