Germany
Julian Nagelsmann has a new roster issue hampering his preparations ahead of his side’s the UEFA Euro 2024 curtain raiser. Ahead of the clash with Scotland, Germany’s head coach has seen one player pull out of the squad.
Aleksandar Pavlovic will not feature in the quadrennial event, with Emre Can replacing the young midfielder. The Borussia Dortmund will be a backup midfielder throughout UEFA Euro 2024.
Manuel Neuer will take his usual spot between the sticks, with Germany lining up in a 4-2-3-1 formation in front of him against Scotland. The backline should feature Joshua Kimmich, Jonathan Tah, Antonio Rudiger, and Maximilian Mittelstadt.
As for the midfield unit, Robert Andrich should line up alongside the retiring Toni Kroos, who will aim to leave a lasting legacy with Germany as he has gone with Real Madrid. Captain Ilkay Gundogan will reprise the no. 10 role, with Jamal Musiala, Florian Wirtz, and Kai Havertz completing the numbers in the final third.
Probable Lineup (4-2-3-1): Neuer; Kimmich, Tah, Rudiger, Mittelstadt; Andrich, Kroos; Musiala, Gundogan, Wirtz; Havertz
Scotland
Like his counterpart in the German dugout, Steve Clarke has a new issue to deal with ahead of the trip to the Allianz Arena. Scotland’s head coach might be without one player on Friday, with Stuart Armstrong struggling to shrug off a knock.
Angus Gunn is an automatic pick between the sticks, with Scotland lining up in a 3-4-2-1 formation in front of him against Germany. The central defensive unit should feature Jack Hendry, Grant Hanley, and Kieran Tierney.
Anthony Ralston and captain Andrew Robertson will be the two wing-backs, and the duo will aim to make an impact on both ends of the pitch. As for the midfield unit, there is no looking past Billy Gilmour, who made an impression in UEFA Euro 2020, and Callum McGregor.
Scott McTominay and John McGinn will reprise advanced roles from the central areas, with the latter providing a goal threat with his burst into the final third. Finally, there is no looking past Che Adams as the central striker for Scotland against Germany.
Probable Lineup (3-4-2-1): Gunn; Hendry, Hanley, Tierney; Ralston, Gilmour, McGregor, Robertson; McTominay, McGinn; Adams
Prediction: Germany 2-1 Scotland
