EURO 2024 Scotland vs Switzerland: What to Expect
Scotland, looking to recover from their heavy defeat to Germany, will face a well-organized and defensively strong Switzerland team that impressed in their victory over Hungary.
First Half Expectations: Switzerland is expected to dominate possession with their experienced midfield, led by Granit Xhaka. A goal from a well-coordinated play involving Duah or Vargas is highly anticipated.
Second Half Expectations: Scotland will likely attempt to exploit Switzerland’s defensive gaps through quick transitions. With players like McGinn and McTominay, they might find opportunities to test Sommer and potentially score.
