Scotland
Scotland have been extremely well organised under Clarke, and acquitted themselves superbly in a tough qualifying group, qualifying ahead of Norway, Georgia and Cyprus, behind Spain. As well as the hosts, seasoned international opposition in Hungary and Switzerland mean it will be a tough task to qualify from Group A.However, the Scots deservedly beat Spain in their qualifying campaign and are capable of causing any team problems. Midfielders John McGinn and Scott McTomminay are quality players, however, the great strength of Clarke’s side is the fact that they are greater than the sum of their parts. A reality check possibly game in the return match against the Spanish in qualifying where they lost 2-0 and a 3-1 home defeat to England, which shows that they still have some way to go. However, they are a dangerous side who are capable of upsetting the odds.
Since qualification, however, Clarke’s side have struggled to get results. The latest round of friendlies saw a heavy defeat to the Netherlands, where the Scot’s more open, attacking approach was exposed and a disappointing home defeat to Northern Ireland. However, Clarke has done an excellent job and will be determined to find the right formula ahead of the finals.
Hungary
Hungary qualified for their third successive Euros in commanding fashion and will be looking to make a serious tilt at winning the group. They drew with Germany at Euro 2020 and thoroughly outplayed England in their Nations League clash. They are capable of mixing it with the best on their day and should not be underestimated.
Hungary began their preparations for Euro 2024 with friendly wins over Turkey and Kosovo. They will be looking to advance to the round of 16.
Prediction
Scotland and Hungary are both sides who will have ambitions to advance from the group. They are both well organised and neither team will give much away in this one. We feel that this will end in a draw.
